"God is not intelligent in the way that people are intelligent. Because in people, intelligence involves learning, connecting, solving unknowns, etc. " But God still exhibits a type of intelligence, one that does not need to be modified in anyway? Maybe not in the *same* way but still sharing some similarities?
So you're saying God IS everything: But wouldn't that include that he is intelligent, in the traditional sense of the word, as well?
I still don't see if God doesn't know then how does he create?
https://www.thoughtco.com/examples-of-th...ter-608349 : I guess my question is what's the difference between "non-matter" and "immaterial" / "not material"?
Based off of this if God was just things like memories and thoughts he'd lack the ability to actually interact in the world. Would he not need a matter-based component? Hence God is a logical contradiction because a purely immaterial intelligence wouldn't have the ability of interaction?
