"Anderson Cooper Shreds Donald Trump’s Latest Gaslighting Attempt With Genius Caption "

-
Well done, Anderson Cooper. His Jan 31, 2019 report is great - oops, that's Trump
seeing himself - incisively damaging to the man seeing himself as God with his

"“once again telling you not to trust your own eyes and ears, not to believe what you see and hear, but to believe only him.”"

believe only me attitude. One serious problem, other than having a delusional
president who believes he is a good God, is that Trump is far from a good guy.

In this video a good God appears at 4:45. His position, unlike virtually all of what Trump has to say, is well worth listening to.

Even though I’m a nonbeliever, would I be scared to learn that God really does exist? No. Far from it. The belief that God desires praise, worship, and violent retribution, comes from a lack of understanding about what it’s like to be an enlightened being. It is ignorance projecting ignorance.

The theist view of God is actually far more insulting than the atheist view. It is commonly held that the atheist is the offensive one, that the nonbeliever must walk on eggshells, and be considerate of the beliefs of others. That seems backwards to me. What if there is a god and that god is offended at the thought of people believing he desires worship and praise, demands it even, for eternity - like some petty narcissist? What if that god is disappointed in those who expected him to torture their enemies? What if the believers and the nonbelievers are made to face their creator, and it is the believers who must answer for their offensive beliefs? Even if that’s the case, I don’t think any of us would have anything to worry about, believer and nonbeliever alike, because any mind capable of creating this universe would be enlightened to the point of being beyond such petty concerns.

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
