*sigh* I guess I'll dive into this one. *holds nose*
So you claim to have special knowledge about God's intellectual mind after you claim that he is transcendent, which essentially means you cannot know anything at all about god. Nice.
You can't have it both ways.
Quote:It is rather the human intellect which is only analogous to the divine intellect. The human intellect is a complex intellect, composed of two parts, the active and the potential intellect; just like we exist in a realm composed in complexity of potentiality and actuality. Whereas God is complete non-composite; completely simple - in a term, purely actuality, and God has only the purely active intellect, and is not informed by potential intellect as he is transcendent to time and is himself the apprehensive actualiser of all things. In other words, the human intellect falls completely short of the divine simplicity in the divine intellect, and isn't comparable beyond the remote analogy of intellect that allows us to realise this great differentiation. The human intellect has thus been developed in the universe in complexity and composition between potentiality and actuality, a teleological fact of generation (final causality/natural selection), which God has ordained, in creating humanity in his likeness, with intellect; that humanity might be as gods.
So you claim to have special knowledge about God's intellectual mind after you claim that he is transcendent, which essentially means you cannot know anything at all about god. Nice.
