But they want you to believe it is not a God,
If I could predict God's future actions by solving partial
differential equations,
I have no idea what you mean by God in that sentence.
and if I could build a bridge overpass by using prestressed God, and
if I could make a bronze God by bringing a copper God and a tin God
together, and if I could fertilize my lawn by using the God the
comes out of the backside of a horse then I would have no problem
with the concept behind the word "God"; but I'm a native speaker and
I know that's not how the English language works.
Because you restraint the English language "God" to the post-523
occidental use of the term.
But English allows you to use terms in more general sense. especially
when arguing rationally and using semi-axiomatic approach for all terms.
Why does atheist put so much energy in defending all the time the
roman christian God.
You confirm again and again that atheists defends the uniqueness of
the God notion: the christian one.
Many Christians have already a larger view.
