My point for the OP is to support my OP, the ontology God is impossible to be real.
The critical attribute of the ontological God is absolutely-absolute and perfection, example from Descartes;
Descartes deduced from nature [the empirical].
- Descartes argued that God's existence can be deduced from his nature, just as geometric ideas can be deduced from the nature of shapes—he used the deduction of the sizes of angles in a triangle as an example.
He suggested that the concept of God is that of a supremely perfect being, holding all perfections.
He seems to have assumed that existence is a predicate of a perfection. Thus, if the notion of God did not include existence, it would not be supremely perfect, as it would be lacking a perfection. Consequently, the notion of a supremely perfect God who does not exist, Descartes argues, is unintelligible. Therefore, according to his nature, God must exist.
In the above Descartes used the term 'ideas' which is specifically in the philosophical and platonic sense.
In the above Descartes deduced from the idea of a perfect triangle.
I am using one example, i.e. perfect circle.
Now if a perfect circle, perfect triangle or perfect-whatever-empirical-thing is impossible to be real empirically,
then, it is impossible for a perfect God to be empirically-philosophically* real.
* i.e. using various philosophical tools.
Humans named the shape of the wheel before they had any concept of mathematical perfection.
Thus gross "real" round things hacked out of wood led humans to ask more questions about how to model such things.
But since it is obvious enough that no perfect circle can exist in anything but conceptualising, the "circles" of nature are the "real circles", but only suggest the mathematical form and are gross approximations of them.
As for GOD, it is nothing more than a gross conceit of human frailty.
The analogy to a circle or wheel does not hold since God is his/he/it various forms is not a perfected empirical object. It is not in ANY sense empirical.
I suppose you could take a sculpture of a god, which reflects a perfect god, and like a real circle, or wheel leads us to a conceptual one.

What kind of nonsense is that?
I quoted from Kant;
I suggested you read the whole chapter on 'Phenomena versus Noumena'.
- The Concept of a Noumenon is thus a merely limiting Concept, the Function of which is to curb the pretensions of Sensibility; and it is therefore only of negative employment.
B311
The limit of a limit, necessitates a limit as not just circular but empty as well.
Example:
_________________________ Line A
Then observe that limit of this one line through line B
__________________________ Line B
And we get the limit as not just intrinsically empty but emptiness itself as line C:
__________________________ Line A
Line C
__________________________ Line B
Noumenon necessitates a paradox as through a double negation, where "the limit of a limit is no limit".
To Kant, the thing-in-itself is LIMIT-B.
The noumenon is a limit-A which is within LIMIT-B.
The noumenon is a sub-limit of LIMIT-B
Ultimately Kant demonstrated both limit-A and LIMIT-B are fundamentally transcendental illusions when one attempts to reify these limits.
Thus there is no real LIMIT-C as the ultimate emptiness.
It is obvious at this point you do not understand Kant fully.
Dually this fallacy is a continual negation of phenomenon, as a fallacy.
Limit C is an actually Line as well (which cannot be graph directly), strictly because Limit C has no width nor is it really in a line in and of itself except through the other line. It is a line, because of the other lines, when 0 distance occurs between seperate lines, thus you end with it being real but effectively nothing. Two lines, with no space between them, observes a 0d line (which cannot be seen except as the inversion of 1 line into another line.
This is not an illusion, as the two lines exist, thus you have a phenomenon (0d line as the inversion of one line to another) as a phenomenon which cannot be seen but is not an illusion either. Void is not an illusion as void is void of illusion.

You have point 0, void, nothing, raw mass, etc.
It cannot be observed.
Now that point 0 splits into another point. How does it do this? But voiding itself into a form, volume, image. Its projection from one state into another begins with a simple line.
The point splits into point A and point B through the line. This line is not just the first progression of the point (going from left to right) but considering direction is relative it is also going from (right to left simultaneously). The line is going two directions at once, we only see one because of the angle we are observing it from.
This creation of the line results from the divergence of one point into two points....polarization
Considering the progression of the line goes both ways, the splitting of the points paradoxically shows both are connected through the same line and the points in diverging are actually convergence by a line considering the line is composed of points/lines...thus converging upon itself....polarization.
Polarization is thus the synthesis of points, through divergence and convergence, with all phenomenon as subject to both distance and size existing as points (car in distance, then parts car is composed of, then atoms parts are composed of, point particles, etc..."being" unfolding from nothing as the point is void).
It is the movement from a unified state, to a state of relative extremes.
This deals with the paradox of how space can expand, but considering all phenomenon are composed of space, it applies to all phenomenon.
Considering all phenomenon result from the synthesis of points, reality can be defined as polarization

-wiki -God
It is the same for gravity, space, time, etc.
Wiki is merely a convenience with the hope for consensus.All cannot be expressed without infinite definition thus definition itself is subject to equivocation and means nothing. Infinite being is a paradox.
Please dont tell me you plan to enlighten the world with wikipedia articles....I can just sense you are trying to hard now.
In this case, the definition of God from Wiki is reasonably credible.
If you do not agree with Wiki then show me your claim and I can decide whether we can agree or not.
We cannot proceed with the argument if cannot agree on the definition, else it is apples and oranges again.
