No the version of God central to the Abrahamic faiths. That's the the one you're not understanding if you're comparing it to Zeus. Not the same thing even if Zeus was real, this should be stressed.

It's not something necessarily confined to human understanding. But again if you're comparing it to Zeus or any created being you're completely off tangent. You may see Sam Harris or whoever do this but as far as this subject is concerned he is an ignoramus he doesn't know a lot about it.
Quote:Do you know how many theists who disagree with your version have said the same thing to people here? I could spend my entire life learning about everyone's version of god- and they would all be equally unbelievable.
It's not "my version" it is what God is meant to be in Abrahamic faiths. Yes there are disagreements about it but no-one agrees its the same thing as Zeus. We don't believe in created gods that's the very first thing the Bible throws out. You could say angels and what have you are kind of like created gods and that's a fair comparison. The difference is no-one worships angels but they did worship Zeus.

No, I wouldn't. I did, however, take 2 years of theology. But it's nice that you yet again are telling me what I know and don't know. You really have a bad habit with that.
I don't know what kind of theology class you took. You don't compare Zeus to Yahweh you really ought to have known better than that.
Come all ye faithful joyful and triumphant.
