Disproof of Omnibenevolence
#17
RE: Disproof of Omnibenevolence
Which is why it is more coherent to argue that it is a category error than try to redefine the terms. God does not believe in a higher power by definition, that would make him definitionally an atheist. The mere fact he believes in his own existence, does not redraw those definitions. If an atheist is someone who does not believe in a god (higher power), then god is an atheist wrt his own existence. I am not trying to ascribe any human properties to god in doing so. That is the domain of theism.

There is no room left for a higher power to god on the omni terms drawn by theism. Hence the above definitional issues. Why did you state "his attributes already reach limits defining those". It is my understanding of the god concept that his powers are unlimited?
