I have been wondering lately. Around here you see theists claim god is this or god is that, and often they will contradict each other and we spend a lot of time on that. However tonight I began to wonder what exactly is a God? Because until we answer that then how can we make any claims as to what it is and is not. I have a feeling some may refer to something like William Lane Craig's maximally great being, but even that doesn't serve as it is like say the biggest number is infinity, all I have to do to come up with a bigger number is day inifinity plus 1. So what constitutes a god?
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
