RE: Omniscience Argument Revisited
November 22, 2013 at 12:33 pm (This post was last modified: November 22, 2013 at 12:34 pm by henryp.)
If the God is not constrained by our understanding of existence, how many of the laws that define our existence can we apply to God?

Our understanding of knowledge, being, space, time...etc...

The assumption that this theoretical omniscient God's mind operates in the same general way as ours seems like a bit of a stretch.

I think the old timey bible stories humanize God in a way that makes him an easier sell to humans, but if such a being existed as defined rather than what we see in the stories, it'd be a much different thing.
