On Hell and Forgiveness

[polymath257]

Which means that this deity cannot be maximal for this property, even though it is a good property.

But, you have not actually said *why* a deity cannot experience fear. For example, did Jesus ever experience fear? Why or why not?

No one ever claimed God must have every property that is good. The claim is that every property he has is the greatest possible version of that property. 

fear
ˈfir/
noun

1. 1.
   an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat.
   

Since God cannot experience something dangerous to him and he cannot hold any false beliefs, he cannot have fear.

Well, that shows an example of what i am saying. Perhaps by being a little less 'great' in one way, he could have fear and be much more 'great' in another sense by being brave. That would make Him overall, more 'great', even if less great in one particular way.

But, even if you want to avoid this, how do you determine *which* aspects God is maximal in? Why do you assume 'power' is one of them? Why do you assume 'knowledge' is another? Is there a different being that is maximally brave, for example? Would that being be worthy of worship because of that maximal bravery? If you pick and choose which properties to maximize over, you allow that some other being maximizes those you leave out.
