If God exists, what is it about his essence that makes him supernatural?
#9
RE: If God exists, what is it about his essence that makes him supernatural?
To me, the "supernatural" attribute of God basically means that He is completely different from what we experience or see in the physical/natural world, but it doesn't tell us anything about whether He is physical or non-physical nor if He's a person, entity, mind, an information field, an intelligent system, or whatever. This may also carry the implication that we can never prove God's existence through empirical methods because He is not confined by the the natural laws of the universe that we are aware of (hence "supernatural").
