What is the concept of God philosophically?

[Janoah]

Almost all the topics here mention God.
But to talk about something, you should have an idea about it, unless you are a parrot.
So, what is your definition of God?
This applies to both theists and atheists.
There is a parable, an atheist came to the Rabbi and said to him,
- Rabbi, I don't believe in God.
And the Rabbi answers him,
- I don't believe in the God that you don't believe in either.

I accept GOD as being an intelligence and having the following attributes (at the minimum):

- omnipotent to our reality
---- thus can judge & reincarnate "souls"
- omniscient to our reality (* however, not knowing all of the future)

Can those who are neither also respond, and answer?

Fighting and/or arguing over whether God exists, or not, is like fighting or arguing over whether a soul exists, or not.

Firstly, what even is some so-claimed 'soul' thing, EXACTLY?

But for now, if you are seeking answers to, 'What is your definition of God?' clarifying question, besides from only so-called "atheists" and "theists", then 'my definition' is,

If God is, as sometimes claimed, ALL-knowing, ALL-powerful, ALL-encompassing, and within-ALL, then the ONLY 'Things' that 'these claims' could ALIGN TO are the Universe, Itself, and, the Mind, Itself.

To me, the word God:
In the physical sense, is just the visible part of the Universe, Itself, which is obviously ALL-powerful, and, ALL-encompassing. AND,
In the spiritual sense, is just the invisible part of the Universe, Itself, which is obviously ALL-knowing, and, within ALL.

It is from the, invisible, Mind, of which there is ONLY One, and which is ALWAYS Truly OPEN, where ALL knowledge derives from. Which, by the way, exists in 'thought', which is also invisible, and can be and is SHARED invisibly through 'spoken words', but which can also become visible through written and/or drawn words and symbols.

The ALL-Knowing God is just ALL knowledge which was, is, and will be KNOWN. Only TOGETHER the ALL-Knowing Knower God exists. And, WITHIN ALL things, or EVERY human being, exists the Mind, or God, or the S.A.G.E. Spirit, Allah, God, Enlightenment, which is WHO and WHAT, which is ACTUALLY GUIDING ALL human beings, EQUALLY.

The visible Universe, of which there IS ALSO ONLY One of, and which being INFINITE and ETERNAL, is Itself, encompasses ALL, and who and what has ACTUALLY Created ALL of the 'other' perceived things.

If absolutely ANY FURTHER ELABORATION, CLARIFICATION, and/or EXPLANATION is SOUGHT, then just ASK away.

I am more than willing, ready, and able to back up, support, and prove ANY and ALL OF 'this', and IRREFUTABLY SO I will add.

Well considering what God is attributed as having or being, then one would HOPE that 'you' accept God as being 'Intelligent'.

having the following attributes (at the minimum):

- omnipotent to our reality
---- thus can judge & reincarnate "souls"
- omniscient to our reality (* however, not knowing all of the future)

What ARE the things;

'our reality', and, 'souls', EXACTLY?

And, WHY would you CLAIM that God, Itself, could NOT KNOW ALL of what you call, 'the future', to your tiny insignificant little life?

No to affirming or denying in a concept. You begin with a negative you, then you end in a negative. Concept is a contemplation. Theism is it true? Aquinas the philosopher argued in Summa Contra Gentiles, the human mind and its power to reason. You can read, I assume, I will point you to truth.

No one knows what God is.

But any narrative will do.

It’s the same with anything unknown, or even unknowable.

I'm sorry I don't understand the question.

What, for example, can your God do that you cannot?

WOT?

Am I omnipotent to our shared reality?

It is highly suspicious, however, that you answer a question with a question.

It is highly clear that either English is a second language or you can't comprehend basic logic.

ANSWER:

GOD can manipulate our entire reality.
I cannot manipulate our entire reality.

ffs.

Are people getting stupider on this fuckstain "philosophy" forum?

God is a metaphysical stopgap - a thought-terminating cliché. It's an off-the-shelf philosophy that's meant to save you from the abyss of metaphysics so you can focus on living; instead of wasting your life on pointless philosophy.

It's a unifying symbol for solidarity and shared meaning that lets communities ground their values and morals in something greater, while discouraging every egomaniac from worshiping themselves.

Ultimately, It's an anthropomorphism for the rule of law. The divine lawgiver becomes a more relatable, concrete representation of abstract legal and moral principles.

Give an example, AN EXAMPLE, of this very manipulation.

That wasn't your question. You asked for a defining feature of GOD, I stated "omnipotent to our reality".

I am under no obligation to PROVE the manipulation. KEY words in the English language are evidence of it though - check here: www.androcies.com

Anthropomorphism of the law? The law is not anthropomorphic, it is not material at all, however. The law of gravity, for example, you cannot kiss it.
