The Definition and Existence of God

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

That is not my impression at all. I have found Philipvs to be a good prize-fighter who gave me a run for my money every time. I enjoy this sort of thing and so does he.

It's just that once in a while I have to draw a line in the sand.

One can not, I repeat can not, profess in one thread to know nothing about God's substance, yet in another thread discuss Gods triple substance and even pretend to know where he sits, i.e. on God's right hand side.

Or was that Christ's left hand side? And where's the Holy Ghost in all this - is it doing the driving? For crying out loud. And to think that millions believe this blatant nonsense.

Enough for today. I need a drink.

Two Billion, nearly, more than are atheists.

Anyway, you're misrepresenting my position. You surely know I consider myself fallable, and that I believe in free will. Maybe you should ask why I support the Trinity in the other thread.

God is a name given to the unexplainable, both inward and outward.

"God" represents nothing more than our conscience and power of will. That there is an omniscient creature watching/controlling all our moves is incorrect.

All above statements are my opinion and might very well not be the truth. After all, there is no such thing as "The" truth. Truth is a relative concept which differs between people.

Unless we are talking about Truth, as in the ideal form. This is a given in Christian philosophy and theology, and the consequence is that "real" Truth is approachable but not attainable.

Jehovah or Yahweh?

Well, neither are actual names, nor is "God" or "god".

I think Richard Dawkins gives a far better description of him:

[..] a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.

And he is mincing his words there.

That's a biased description based on accounts written down by men. It conflicts with the other half of the Bible as well, which, of course, you know.
