Nimzos Signature Wrote:"Those who believe that they believe in God, but without passion in their hearts, without anguish in mind, without uncertainty, without doubt, without an element of despair even in their consolation, believe only in the God idea, not God Himself." (Miguel de Unamuno).
Oh, I just saw that right now. Then I should have said that "God is an all-encompassing being" instead of an "idea," right?
However, the thing is that I cannot comprehend God Himself because I don't know what He looks like nor what is His nature at the most fundamental level of His existence (because I am not God), and therefore, its only possible for me to talk about Him in terms of my idea OF God, but never God Himself. This is not to say that I don't believe in God Himself. I do believe in God, but it's just that I cannot understand Him except by words which represent ideas about Him (such as all-powerful, eternal, creator, designer, etc).
