    What? "Is"? I'm afraid I don't quite understand. What is "is"? Do you mean "is" as I just used it? If so, that doesn't seem to make sense. Explain.

    What? Are you saying that "god", whatever it is, is ineffable? Then that's not a definition. That's an excuse for not giving a definition.

    I meant that the definition should be rational and coherent, not that the "god" (whatever it is) must be.

    Simply put, I want to know what you mean when you say "god". If there is no definition for it, then the word means absolutely nothing.
