God's Sovereignty: A Tribute to Hugh McCann | Episode 1812 | Closer To Truth

[@wesbaker39]

Robert, thanks for this tribute to Hugh! He was my all time favorite professor and became a dear friend. Always so generous with his time, sincere in faith, incisive and rigorous in his analysis of difficult problems, and always with a great sense of humor! He is greatly missed.

It was a pleasure to have had Hugh as well as his wife, poet Janet McCann, as mentors!

I do believe this man is a messenger of a devine being & can defend any diisclaims to that & influenced many closer to truth.

When the pupil is ready to learn, the teacher appears.

[@piehound]

A+ on that one.

Great discussion

[@mitrabuddhi]

this solved some of my problems. Thank you. Is there any answer to this problem: How god is omniscience and simple. Because science must be something complex.

[@robertjkuklajr3175]

Very close to my philosophy in that not only are all things possible (likely), but necessary. All must be experienced by all. Any thought that limits God is only brought about by our mental limitations of understanding. Here it is, let it be. Its seems in my point of view that all must be. Only we limit what that is. God gave us the playground in which we live. Just as we do our children. With our children we restrict them because we are scared they will be hurt. Do this, dont do that.. etc. I beleive God gave us this playground without restrictions because He knew in the end we will be happy and safe.

[@catherinemoore9534]

The argument is logic but you end up thinking of God as a maverick, spontaneously creating a universe and retiring incognito in his invisible den, watching the show down below him. Even if God is also part of us, it still seems like a lab experiment. I always return to 'what is' in order to understand reality and from a human perspective it includes emotions and morality: two fundamental aspects of reality that are inescapable and hugely difficult to marry with logic. Logic and emotions are two facets of human experience and the goal is to find a unifying theory of reality or God blending the two together, like General Relatively with Quantum Mechanics.

You know this keeps circling back to man yeah and life... Someone had to write everything down... Yet it's what we believe because there are times in which we can see something and it's unexplainable yet it happens like your connected to something. There are events that also happen to see what happens, that's why it's recorded down in history as a reminder. For some apparent reason I believe there are device's that's recorded ways of life so when we grow up in those ways that it's passed down through traits and conditioning and the ways in which someone grew up generationally literally imprinted/conditioned into you. Yet for some reason I believe there is something there to let you "see" things.

We know nothing about God, so we have to make things up. Listening to people talking about God, you can tell they are doing it. Fiction is more fun than reality.

@@matthewbonaldo4137 my brother, I am not spitting on anybody. He is dead true but his "philosopher" identity and words living with this video. I am not against "believers" I am an agnostic but when i see people with "academic title" defending or preaching fairy tale like they have proof, can't help I am trolling them. Nothing personal or hate.

@zempath r u saying that we should insult people and their life work after death? 😬 when they can't defend them? Yikes , kind of a shitty debating tactic
