Meet brmckay: A Religious Philosophical Bullshitter Trying to Reinvent God
![]() |
“I can be quite foolish at times.”

He
showed up at DC defending the Dalai Lama from my post by psychoanalyzing of my
mental state at the time I wrote the post:
“It seems to me, that the choir
you are singing with is as bent as any other. Your rant nothing more than
neurosis staring in the mirror. You
loath a certain type of individual, and certainly don't want anyone to notice
that they are kin. If I assert this as
fact, then I am misguided, but is it true?
The Dalai Lama on the other hand, remains a superior authority than you
on Buddhist practice and insight. That being his life's work. It is you that assumes
he is a fool because it would be inconvenient if he weren't.” Link
(Could someone please tell me what this garbled lecture is about;
specifically in relation to my post on the Dalia Lama?)
Notice that when forced away from his
illusive theistic semantics, his bitching has basically nothing to with my post
on the Dalia Lama (It appears he never read it), but his comment is little more than a knee-jerk reaction to the title making as much sense as does his endless ramblings on philosophical theism found on numerous blogs.
Below I’m going to let brmckay express himself express himself in twelve comments and ask you to tell me what the hell this man is talking
about. Let's get started:
It
appears brmckay thinks there is a God:
“Declaring
that "God is Dead", absurd or doesn't exist, is just more of the
same-old-same-old with a different mask.” Link
Then
it appears brmckay doesn’t believe in God:
“Just
to be a little more clear. I use the term "God" for what I consider
good reasons. I also find it absurd to think of "God" as
supernatural.” Link
Then
brmkay contradicts his theistic logic:
“Making
a god out of reason is to hobble ourselves past recognition.” Link
Wait!
It appears brmkay does believe in God after all:
Sorry, it now appears he doesn't:
“Yes,
nature is a good starting point. All speculation of "supernatural" is
just silly. The real thing already extends to the horizon and beyond.” Link
At times brmckay bases his theology on a Biblical Jesus who thinks the way he
(brmckay) does:
“The
question is: What is "sin"? The
answer is simple: Not knowing that we are One in God. It is the trance of
relativity. Jesus was not asking you to
memorize a list of good and bad deeds. He
was showing you the way not to sin. i.e. knowing God as yourself. (and I don't
mean, pretending it were so.)” Link
If anyone believes the Bible at face value, he or she is a "emotional" Fundamentalist:
"My
experience with these conversations is that like a fundamentalist Christian,
the fundamentalist Atheist quickly leaves rationality behind in favour of
emotional thinking." Link
brmckay
explains his God to an atheist on a blog:
“The
thing is, that as an atheist you would like to relegate my non-atheist frame of
reference to the nursery. But your
definition of the term God remains stubbornly primitive. This I suppose
benefits you in some way. Just so you
know, I do equate God to Reality. Link
Oddly,
brmckay’s logic allows proving a negative with a negative:
“God is the Entirety. Nothing is not God. Nothing is outside of God.” Link
“God is the Entirety. Nothing is not God. Nothing is outside of God.” Link
Here’s
how brmckay understands monotheism:
“Why
is it so hard for people to approach Singularity? Or, it's stand-in Entirety. It
is the same problem we have with God. We insist he has a beard. So all the
beardless ones must be false. Or because
some gods have beards and some don't, there is no God. // I find this well worth looking into.” Link
Here's a prime example of brmckay's logic and tell me what the hell this man said?
“There is
"Theology" and there is "Realization". Death doesn't have much to do with it. Once one realizes that death is not real.” Link
