For the acceptance of some sort of cosmic, supernatural equivalent of accepting a scientific and historical fact?
Huh? No. That’s not what I mean.
Then what do you mean then? Efficient for what purpose? If it isn't for the purpose of disclosing some supernatural or god like equivalent of a scientific or historic fact, that what purpose does this efficiency you speak of serve?
I ask because it's not clear. If i said a spoon is more efficient for eating a bowl of cereal than your hands, you get when I mean by efficiency here, because you recognize the goal in which this efficiency serves. It's not clear what goal you have in mind when you brought up efficiency.
Quote:Is god a rational mind?
If by rational mind, you mean a sort of mind that ponders and thinks things, and does running calculations in his head, than no, because omniscience, being all knowing, requires no such pondering. Why think when you already know?
