Are your arguments here aiming to prove a Prime Mover only?
Do you have steps that get us from a God that intentionally creates the universe, to the Christian God specifically?
Do you conceive of this creator as a "personal God"? I've never been quite clear on how a Prime Mover and a Personal God go together.
Thanks.
A god that intentionally creates the universe is a "personal" god. Intent is "personal".
Deist's gods. Personal but not intervening. Theist's gods. Personal and intervening. The term doesn't refer to whether or not a given god is some specific persons "personal" god, it's just an archaic way of saying that the given god has characteristics or attributes we traditionally attribute to people, to personhood.
