Proof of God

The proof has one definition, one Axiom, seven logical Tautologies with ten corollaries, one Deduction, five Inductions, with (credits), [attributes], and some resolved Paradoxes.

Definition;
By God, I mean an eternal, omnipresent, omnipotent, omniscient, infinite pantheistic energy that is the generating and sustaining cause of that which exists.

(A1) Propositions cannot be both true and false. (Parmenides)
The axiom of non-contradiction is required to prove anything at all.

(T1) Nothing is nothing. (Victor Hugo)
(A ≡ A)∧(A → A)∧(idA: AA)∧(∃Ax)(A = x) (Mars Turner)
Four senses of “is” are meant here; of identity, of implication, of predication, and of existence;
A ≡ A “nothing equals nothing” Law of Identity
A → A “nothing implies nothing” Reflexivity of Implication
idA: AA “nothing has the property of nothing” Identity Morphism
(∃Ax)(A = x) “nothing exists as nothing” Reflexivity of Existence

(T2) Nothing is uninvolved. - Something is self-causal. (Mars Turner)
(A ≡ A)∧(A → A) [consciousness]
nothing equals nothing AND nothing implies nothing
ergo nothing is not implicated with something
ergo everything is implicated with something
ergo something is self-implicated
Note; Implication suggests causation and is correlation. When it is impossible for there to be missing variables correlation necessarily is causation, as the only reason correlation would not be causation is the possibility of missing variables.
ergo nothing is not causal with something Q.E.D.
ergo everything is causal with something
ergo something is self-causal Q.E.D.
Note; Self-causal means self-deterministic or teleological. Self-causation is consciousness!

(T3) Nothing is nondescript. - Something is self-descriptive. (Christopher Langan)
(A ≡ A)∧(idA: AA) [intentional]
Note; Endomorphic self-description is self-manifestation!

(T4) Nothing is nonexistence. - Something is essentially existence. (Parmenides)
(A ≡ A)∧(∃Ax)(A = x) [substance]

(T5) Nothing is made of nothing. - Everything is made of something. (Parmenides)
(A → A)∧(idA: AA) [pantheism]

(T6) Nothing is the cause of nothing. - Something is the cause of all things. (Mars Turner)
(A → A)∧(∃Ax)(A = x) [causal]

(T7) Nowhere and at no time has nothing existed. - Something has always existed everywhere. (Mars)
(idA: AA)∧(∃Ax)(A = x) [eternal, invincible, perfect]
Note; Something that has always existed is eternal. That which is eternal cannot be created nor destroyed. Therefore it is invincible. Because it is eternal it also has an unchanging nature and this while embodying the existence of all things [T5] it therefore is perfect.

(D1) One thing is self-causal, self-descriptive, has the essence of existence, that everything is made of, that is the cause of all things, and has always existed everywhere. (Spinoza) [omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent, monism]
Proof--The true definition of a thing neither involves nor expresses anything beyond the nature of the thing defined. From this it follows that--No definition implies or expresses a certain number of individuals, inasmuch as it expresses nothing beyond the nature of the thing defined. There is necessarily for each individual existent thing a cause why it should exist [T6]. This cause of existence must either be contained in the nature and definition of the thing defined [T2], or must be postulated apart from such definition. If a given number of individual things exist in nature, there must be some cause for the existence of exactly that number, neither more nor less. Consequently, the cause of each of them, must necessarily be sought externally to each individual thing. It therefore follows that, everything which may consist of several individuals must have an external cause. And, as it has been shown already that existence appertains to the nature of something [T4], existence must necessarily be included in its definition; and from its definition alone existence must be deducible. But from its definition we cannot infer the existence of several things; therefore it follows that there is only one thing that is self-causal, self-descriptive, has the essence of existence, that everything is made of, that is the cause of all things, and has always existed everywhere. Q.E.D.

Note; Consciousness is a fundamental property of reality [T2 Note & D1], and is the cause of the creation of all things [D1]. Therefore God is conscious being and humans partake in this essence of the creative source to the extent that they are conscious or self-causal.

(I1) E = m⋅c^2 (Jules Poincaré & Olinto Pretto) [immanent]
Mass-Energy Equivalence; bradyons have transformational pathways with gauge bosons; all spatial things are forms of energy.

(I2) E = Δt⋅c^2 (Edmund Whittaker & Thomas Bearden) [transcendent]
Delta Time-Energy Equivalence; tachyons have transformational pathways with gauge bosons; all temporal things are forms of energy.

(I3) E = (h⋅ω)/2 (Max Planck & Werner Heisenberg) [infinite, omnipresent, perfect]
Zero-Point Energy; we have a contribution of 1/2 hbar omega from every single point in space resulting in a substantial infinity as well as making energy spatially infinite. Because it is infinite it is unchanging in it's nature, while embodying the existence of all things, it therefore is perfect.

(I4) ∑E = Et+Ek+Ep (Julius Mayer) [eternal, invincible]
Conservation of Energy; energy cannot be created nor destroyed, therefore it is temporally infinite.

(I5) P = ∫ ∇E dv (Mars Turner) [all-power-full]
Power Integral; power involves the transformation of energy, therefore the infinite, omnipresent, and eternal energy is all-power-full.

Note; The definitive and causal mechanism for mind-matter interactions (Mars Turner);
Mind (scalar temporal energy; tachyons) and Matter (vector spatial energy; bradyons) are dually related harmonic convergents of each other. i.e. The destructive interference of vector potentials creates a scalar wave, and the destructive interference of scalar waves creates a vector potential.

Re: Proof of God

Interesting that your definition of God does not account for him being good, bad, moral, judging, responsible for creation, or even conscious. It also (to the best of my reading) doesn't distinguish God from that which is not God (in other words how is this God and not simply a word that encompasses everything)?

Do you think a single proof can account for all the things that are traditionally attributed to God?

"judge" or "arbitrator" can be invoked through omnipotent

"responsible for creation" is directly invoked through "the generating and sustaining cause of that which exists"

"conscious" is invoked through "omniscient" in the definition and consciousness is directly proven in the second logical tautology

You will notice in the reading that God is not a created being. Created things are not eternal as an example to distinguish God from that which is not God.

Everything is made of and caused by God... but everything is not God. Though everything can be viewed as an extension of the attributes of God.

For example a particle is not God. It can be created and destroyed.

A separate proof of the theistic notions of God is required... such that it would prove the stories of mythological proportion found in one of the theistic traditions.

Re: Proof of God

MySiddhi,

Good god man… you have managed to prove God with scientific theories and axiomatic expressions. Aedes has an extremely valid point, which is that you need to account for moral imperatives and divine substance. I don't understand why you could not answer this point, it is vital to the discussion. Further more, the assertion that God could be explained in finite terms such as a proof is hard to fathom. Your proof suffers from shaky suppositions an ill-conceived evidence. Keep in mind that the scientific formulas you “stated” are themselves theories. They lend no weight to a substantial proof, even if they were put in the right context.

But I don’t know about how effective your approach is though. You account for existential and universal quantifiers as tautologies??? Aristotle is rolling over in his grave right now… that is a huge taboo in logic. Furthermore, a predicate proof of a single variable when the argument calls for more than two??????? I have hashed out some of your calculations, and they are very problematic. But I am curious to see if your thesis will work. Heck, let’s give it a whirl. I might want to point out a few things you would need to fix in order to make it somewhat convincing.

1.It is the principle, not the axiom of non-contradiction. You need to fix this because principle and axiom imply entirely different things. The principle of non-contradiction exists in academia, the axiom does not.

2.Victor Hugo… as in Les Miserables Victor Hugo… the novelist??? If I get the jist of what T1 is about, it is this. T1 is a supposed quote by Victor Hugo, followed by… by… some species of predicate proof… followed by a random mentioning of concepts, and then an attempt to break down the predicate proof you just wrote. But the break down doesn’t even remotely translate into what you said. state only what you know to be true.

3.Etc,etc,etc.


You may also want to change the same post on the other philosophy forums as well. Also, it was interesting to see how you were able to set up the context for this post in your initial posts. Very interesting indeed.


Also… in your second post, you state that, “…a particle is not God. It can be created and destroyed.” If you place so much emphasis on scientific evidence, why do you not support it, only contradict your own theory. Your statement in the first post does this when you state;

(I4) ∑E = Et+Ek+Ep (Julius Mayer) [eternal, invincible]
Conservation of Energy; energy cannot be created nor destroyed, therefore it is temporally infinite.


You reference and affirm in your initial post the conservation of energy yet blatantly contradict yourself in a matter of a few posts. Why?

Please revise your statement.

Not sure if you're familiar with Kurt Godel, but he demonstrated that not even math is a purely airtight tautological system -- so why should we believe this of logic? Do we know that apparent non-contradictions are really so?

Quote:
Nothing is made of nothing. - Everything is made of something. (Parmenides)
Logical proofs are made of nothing, aren't they?

Quote:
Nothing is the cause of nothing. - Something is the cause of all things. (Mars Turner)
That's a psychological fallacy. You cannot prove causality in even a single example, let alone prove that there is generally such a phenomenon as cause and effect. If you're interested in incorporating science into this proof, all you can hold is that energy is transferred over time. You cannot speak of causes.

Quote:
One thing is self-causal, self-descriptive, has the essence of existence, that everything is made of, that is the cause of all things, and has always existed everywhere. (Spinoza)
Much as I love Spinoza, you're really making him of all people part of a God proof??

Spinoza's opinions about God can hardly be considered a component of a proof. I mean the man is the only person in history to be simultaneously excommunicated by both the Christian church and the Jewish community.

I was hoping to tell people about this but I don't understand it. God is supposed to be simple and peaceful and revengeful. God and this science is just not good together. Nobody cares, nerds are not . .

Socrato,

Why would your user be that of a couple of nerds?

As much as you are probably a comedian/jokester to your friends you are as much that way to the nerds here; just in different respects I think. Sidhi, I doubt Socrato is out of school yet.

Regardless I have to agree with one thing. I have a difficult time understanding your language in the starting topic, proof of God.
