This doesn't denote we can't know anything about God, just that historically in Biblical scripture people were chastised for thinking they knew everything about God and this modern Christian attitude is probably more of a safety position. IMO, If I had to nail down some attributes to God I would sayThat's the worst nightmare of a definition I've ever seen.
1-God is a creative entity existing incorporeally
2-God's presence isn't detectable by today's standards within the known universe
3-God is the entity that created matter and guided the creation of the universe and it's laws and axioms.
4-God is a moral compass in both Jesus' teachings about God and in the modern revelations that are observed
5-If there is an afterlife, and a judgement, God would have the best perspective to judge fairly.
6-God's hand allows for a design in chaos that exceed chance and provides sychronicity and shows purpose individually
"God is" as a defintion of god is
1) a cop out
2) failing to define anything
3) an insult of intellect
4) lazyness gone haywire
5) procrastination
6) in the face refusal of definition
7) too easy
8) designed to be a semi-profundity
9) theological bankruptcy
10) je moeder op een houtvlot
11) not worth flushing the toilet
12) crap
13) like the ultimate untruth of the universe
14) showing a deranged brain
15) what validates theological non-cognitivism
...
And then you proceed with some attributes you on a personal basis would like to add!
QED, I rest my case.
