What does classical/traditional theism have to offer us as individuals?
Part II of II
...The significance here lies not only in the realization that hope has evolved.
Now your existence into eternity may be real.
This generates the idea that your eternal existence may depend upon how you behave or what you believe.
Behavior and faith in this life now become important elements regarding your existence in eternity.
This idea results in a massive elevation of human behavior toward others and toward oneself.
•
A major leap in human behavior now takes place due to a perceptual understanding regarding the size of the Causative Force.
The Causative Force now becomes defined from nonexistence to existing.
The size now comes into question.
The size of the Causative Force is defined to be almost completely omnipresent.
Not completely because the Causative Force does not include the universe under the perceptions of classical/traditional theism.
If the Causative Force is truly omnipresent, then “evil” would have to be a part of the Causative Force and this seems inconceivable.
Overwhelming fear of such a perception drove classical/traditional theism to reject this idea and thus shrink the potential size of the Causative Force and with it your potential, my potential, the potential of all individuals.
