I’ve been over this before, and I think even with you. Not interested in repeating myself for the fourth or fifth time.
Originally posted by @ghost-of-a-duke Again, this is heavily biased thinking. If I can take a step back and objectively imagine the possibility that God does exist, why can't you do the same for His non-existence? (Seeing as He is unproven).
Equally, I could say, 'you just think you're a theist. There is no such thing as God'. - Bottom line, things don't automatically exist because y ...[text shortened]... d proving, just because you have convinced yourself he does. (But that doesn't make Santa real).
Creation is logical proof for a creator. The absence of proof as a logical explanation for non-existence has no basis in rational thought. Without information there is nothing to prove one way or the other.
Does your existence depend on me believing you exist? Is your character and personality based on what I think they should be?
As for the existence of God, I’ve already said it’s not proven, nor did God ever intend it to be provable. But enough evidence exists for Jesus Christ’s Resurrection for one to conclude beyond a reasonable doubt that it happened and that He was who He said He was - the Son of the only living God.
My character is corrupted , my personality flawed but my soul is golden

This seems to speak to the essence of Karma. And not the concept of "karma" that is prevalent in pop culture
Brihadaranyaka Upanishad 4.4.5-6
Now as a man is like this or like that,
according as he acts and according as he behaves, so will he be:
a man of good acts will become good, a man of bad acts, bad.
He becomes pure by pure deeds, bad by bad deeds.
And here they say that a person consists of desires.
And as is his desire, so is his will;
and as is his will, so is his deed;
and whatever deed he does, that he will reap.
