I read something I found peculiar

[fr0d0]

The purpose of the image is to relate our understanding of something tangible to humans to the divine which is God.

Can you bring forward further info so that I can make a full picture of this? I like to understand and see all there is before launching an attack. I'm always better prepared that way.

Ok

Humans have discerned this thing about us we call soul, for example. This essence we also attribute to God.

Grasping something real to us helps us to grasp an idea such as God

More info please. Examples and such.

LOL

Calling the soul 'real' of course is debatable. Seems like people through the ages felt the need to describe it, so in that company, I put it forward as 'real'.

People have rationally concluded this about the nature of God.

Do tell.

Ancient goat herders formulated it and it eventually found its way onto little bits of paper that got stuck into a big book.

Your limitation of the word 'image' isn't rational.

It's never wise to judge someone's understanding.

Noted

Nothing about God is strange or meaningless.. it all follows exact logic.

I can name one, being all perfect means you are everything. You cannot improve or be more than what you are and so any thought or action would be meaningless and so gods existence is therefor meaningless.

In linear time there would always be new problems to apply your perfect wisdom to. God not needing to better himself doesn't render him meaningless, just complete.

Also we are far from perfect but god is perfect and he created us right? Well why would something so perfect in everyway result to creating something so inperfect? What is the meaning of it?

The logic goes: perfection produces something less perfect. Hence everything proceeded from God who is more than the sum of everything.
