God could NEVER be a "he", nor ANY male gendered thing.
Restrictive.
In regards to 'what', exactly?

I don't think we are thinking that differently. I just have looser terms.

Have you ever noted how Yahweh was portrayed as androgynous before Christianity took the feminine out of the Jewish god?

That is also why Christians had to invent the rib woman for Adam.

Now Adam could go fuck himself. Joking.

Sorry. I could not help that last.

Giving any characteristic to some supernatural god is to limit his choices.

To say that Yahweh is male, when the Jews saw Yahweh as androgynous, is a quite the reach.

Mind you, custom had most people using father to designate god.

The mind is well defined in the dictionaries and I offer no new definition.

Your mind is where you invented whatever ideals you might see in a god.

All god are man made.

What does 'supernatural' mean or refer to, to you?

And, WHY did you claim here that 'some supernatural god' would be a "he"?

Obviously. But find out WHY, then you will KNOW how the misperception and misunderstanding arose and continues.

I do not recall saying I did not know.

If you knew why, you would have taken the point instead of making a "stupid" allusion.

You did not have to. It is ALREADY OBVIOUS you do not.

Unless, OF COURSE, you would like to PROVE me wrong here. Which, if you do, then go on right ahead and SHOW us WHY "custom had most people using father to designate god".

We WAIT your EXPLANATION.

OF COURSE 'custom' had most people designating God that way. There was absolutely NO need for you to even say this.

I have just made it KNOWN that you do NOT KNOW WHY that misnomer 'custom' came about, AND STILL REMAINS.

Also, and by the way, we STILL wait for your answer to; What does 'supernatural' even mean or refer to, to you?

Sometimes when people want to CLAIM that some thing is NOT real, then they just revert to the ILLOGICAL CLAIM that that 'thing' is 'supernatural'. I am wanting to SEE what your reason is for using that term.

The Christian god cares about morals just as little as the right wing Christians. Not at all.

That is why Christians run from discussing/debating his vile ways.

Hypocrites, truth and morals do not mix well.

This is nonsense.
Infinity, that which is without known beginning nor ending, cannot make sense.

Everything known is a mind constructed concept. The known doesn't have to make sense, insofar as what the heck is the MIND..except what imagination says it is. Then again, what is imagination?

You make your own sense. Who else is going to make it?

It's no coincidence that the word CON is in ''consensus'' :D

And in consciousness, and in conscience, and in concept. :roll:

The talking thinking species known as the human being has developed the art of conceptual langauge which has artificially imprinted an elaborate conceptual story overlaying what is essentially at it's core, the mystery of being.

TRUTH is prior to proof. The absolute truth that reality is unknowable doesn't require any proof, reality is it's own proof, reality is absolutely free to be in every instant, no matter what, because there is no other authority outside of infinity itself, infinity is self controlling. Reality controls itself. And you are that self. You are infinity itself, you have always existed infinitely forever.

If that were not true, then you wouldn't be here now. Now is forever, now is in finite.

There is absolutely no distinction between 'time' and 'timelessness', they are the same reality.

If you ever want to discuss God's ways instead, then I am more than willing to. But I am NOT a "christian" so maybe you are not yet ready to discuss God and Its ways, with me.

Infinity, that which is without known beginning nor ending, cannot make sense.
BUT it ALL makes PERFECT sense, that is; if and when one LOOKS properly AND correctly.

In Fact when things are LOOKED AT, properly AND correctly, the beginning AND ending of 'infinity' is SEEN, CRYSTAL CLEAR, which creates PERFECT sense.

The opposite is also true.

The opposite is also perfect.

Truth is prior to proof, no futher inquiry necessary.

Self evidence, is it's own evidence. There is no 'evidence police' outside of your own self evident knowing.

This self-evident AND OBVIOUS. But "others" would just say there is NO other authority outside of thee Universe, Itself, thee Universe is Self controlling/creating.
Dontaskme wrote: Tue Nov 09, 2021 7:38 am Reality controls itself. And you are that self. You are infinity itself, you have always existed infinitely forever.
The word 'you' infers "another", of which there obviously can NOT be, in Reality. The word 'I', however, infers ONLY One, of which there is ONLY One.

As I have been continually saying, from the outset, 'I' ALWAYS EXIST.

But one has to KNOW who and what 'I' am, FIRST, to FULLY understand this Fact.
Dontaskme wrote: Tue Nov 09, 2021 7:38 am If that were not true, then you wouldn't be here now. Now is forever, now is in finite.
It could be said that HERE-NOW is finite, infinitely. Also, it is ONLY 'I' who is ALWAYS HERE-NOW, in ALL WAYS.
Dontaskme wrote: Tue Nov 09, 2021 7:38 am There is absolutely no distinction between 'time' and 'timelessness', they are the same reality.
This is WHY Reality is constantly-changing, and Creating, Itself - HERE-NOW.

There is not an actual thing as 'time', other than 'time' just being the human being created word and label to describe the measurements taken between, perceived, "events". However, 'timelessness' is HERE-NOW, INFINITELY.
