What I was attempting to express was the apparent contradiction between a featureless Absolute Reality, and the expression of same. How can it be expressed if it has never been observed? How can it be named if it has never been observed? I was enjoying the paradox. As for God, the Divine Intelligence, all attributes of Him/Her/Us stretch to Infinity when expressing subject/object relationships of Him/Her/Us to anything, and are both profound and meaningless. So everyone's model or idea of God 'works', whether it is eternal, non- sentient, or eternal, personalized. ------------------------ Yahoo!
