I'd definitely say that in order to believe in God one must have an imagination. I can't really imagine someone believing in God and not having an imagination. Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm not sure if this argument stands for a conscience God, but at least the existence of one. I've grown up Christian (specifically Baptist). I hesitate to say this because of how many Christians have given the religion as a whole (and I dislike the word "religion" also, I prefer "spirituality"). I believe that the core of being a Christian is to love everyone. Too often people don't do that, which sucks. I try to live my life with this mentality and it's worked out so far.
I think it's quite easy for people to have a belief in God and have no imagination. For a large group of believers God becomes the answer for anything they can't wrap their intellect or imagination around. Don't have the imagination to think about tiny incremental changes over billions of years leading to complex and intelligent life? I'm not saying your particular belief in God fails prey to this kind of thinking, but I think it's quite easy to imagine someone having a belief in God and a complete and utter lack of imagination.I'd definitely say that in order to believe in God one must have an imagination. I can't really imagine someone believing in God and not having an imagination.
I think we both have valid arguments. In they end, it seems that we both have misconceptions about the other based on how the ill-taught of our kind portrays themselves to others.
Actually I don't think you have an argument at all, merely a broad sweeping generalization that is obviously false. And I think that claiming knowledge of me by my "kind" is the real misconception here.
Kind was used for lack of a better term. We both obviously come from two different schools of thought. What I was trying to say was that both of our mentalities have equal merit to them.
