Theists: What do you mean when you say that God is 'perfect'?

To argue otherwise means taking the stance that the physical universe is unintelligible. I was not promoting the idea of an external standard for a glass marbles simply because those are artifacts whose value depends on the use for which they were created. Nevertheless, a chipped and/or misshapen marble is not a good one for playing a game...

This Is lifted from a random new age woo forum.

Quote:Well. A candle lights another.
It is essentially a falling off process, falling off of layers of conditioned responses that constitute the social identity of a person. It is a process that allows and reveals oneself to oneself with intimacy and acceptance. The whole thought sphere that runs parallel to Reality. The i identity reconciles into unknowing.
It is a simplification of life,heart, mind, so life can be lived with simple, fresh response as each moment decrees. Dysfunctionality dissolves and emotional, psychological simplicity dawns. The seeker goes past the mending state, of chasing shadows and settles in one's own pristine being.

In presence of a catalyst, the chemical reaction speeds up.

Now tell me the difference between your word salad and theirs? And again tell me why anyone should take you seriously?
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
