Talkative mood?
Yea sure.
Just listening to songs and well, talking.
This is about religion
Islam in particular
Is god an absolute authority?
He is in absolute power. and with power would come authority. no?
So his word is the law?
And he bows to no law?
Well see, its kind of an inter-relation.
If you believe that there is a God with supreme authority..that Authority would need its subjects.
Since the subjects are under the authority they need to abide by it.
In the case of humans free will is given. Why is it given? I cant say and is another matter.
But this viewpoint isnt really directly from the Quran. Its more like Ibne Sina's interpretation of Aristotles metaphysics, and then how he related it to Islam. I haven't completely read up on it
But is god bound by his own laws?
He is.
In the way that he set out his own promises
and stated that he cant back up on his own word
But what holds him to his word?
The fact that he is God .
unaffected by desire or lust
both of which most commonly lead to a derailment from an objective
So what if there happens to be a conflict of ideals, and he has to break one of his own laws
Hypothetical situation
If he has to, will he be able to break his own laws?
Well i would say that there are laws with their own different levels of significance by which He would go by but on top, I would suppose there is just one law.
Justice
and around that ..all the other laws revolve
Exactly.
That is what I was waiting for
Justice
