queston for Atheist

[Rampant.A.I.]

It sounds like you're just making up a definition for God and insisting everyone use it.

I didn't make up the definition. That's the one in the dictionary. Sure we could all make up endless nonsense words and say that they mean the same as any existing word. But why do that? We already have a word. That's how language works, on commonly agreed meanings.

Now I'm happy to accept that the whole of the description of God wasn't inferred, but neither was it taken. I find the objection unnecessary.

God[ god ]
noun
1. the one Supreme Being, the creator and ruler of the universe.
2. the Supreme Being considered with reference to a particular attribute: the God of Islam.
3. one of several deities, especially a male deity, presiding over some portion of worldly affairs.

Playing stupid really gets old. You aren't using the dictionary definition. You are inferring your personal God, from the socio-cultural belief system you were raised in, and all the attributes of the Judeo-Christian God instead of any other.

The attributes of God are not inexorably tied to Christianity, as you so idiotically state as fact. Lots of cultures have treated their God as the one true God, with all the assumed characteristics they ascribed to God.

You're special pleading the Christian definition because you happen to be Christian. This is not how logic works.

Equivocation ("to call by the same name") is classified as an informal logical fallacy. It is the misleading use of a term with more than one meaning or sense (by glossing over which meaning is intended at a particular time). It generally occurs with polysemic words (words with multiple meanings).
