The Christian God is NOT simple.

[theVOID]

So the subject IS Divine Simplicity? Wow. Nice of you to admit that finally VOID. And suddenly that's what you've been talking about all along. How odd.

Well geeze fr0d0, What the fuck else did you think a thread called "The Christian God is NOT simple" with an argument that the notion of a plan contradicts the notion of simplicity would be about? And I gota say, if you think that was the first time I had explicitly said I was addressing the notion of divine simplicity you might want to go back and read my posts.

the VOID, I've been reading the post and I believe you may be looking at DDS in a way it's not meant, well that is just my opinion, this is how I see DDS. First off God is not simple or simplistic, that is as far as Him being not complex. God is very complex, if He were not then how could He have created the universe, that is if you are going to assume God exist for this arguement. God not being of physical matter is no reason to think He is simplistic, the Bible says He is spirit, but what makes God who He is could be considered simplicity. God = omniscients=omnipotent= omnipresent, I believe that we could put many omnis in there, therefore with God being equal to each of the omnis then each omni is equal to the other two, this could be seen and is seen as divine simplicty. God could not be any one of the omnis and not be all of them, that would be impossible. To be omnipotent one must be omnipresent, to be omnipresent one would have to be omniscient, to be omniscient one would have to be omnipotent and ect. So God being divinely simplistic means it's easy to see God for who and what He is. Now I agree that God's plan is complex and mostly outside our understanding because He is very complex in a way that we can not understand nor should we be able to since He is God. I guess what I'm trying to say is that God being very complex has made himself known to us in away that we would call it divine simplicity. I'm sure that what I've said is about as clear as mud, as you know I do have problems at times getting a point across through writing, so if this needs to be cleared up let me know and I'll try to make it clearer.

THANKYOU Godschild! That is exactly what I pointed out to fr0d0 several posts ago where I said "It seems to me that while the word 'simplicity' is in common, the meaning of the word is not", It seems you and I agree for once, Divine simplicity might make God a singular being in essence rather than a composite of parts but he is complex in the information represented in his being.

Take notice fr0d0, you blundering Idiot, he managed to directly address the main point about information in one post, you managed to avoid it in over half a dozen posts.
