Is God an Alien?

RE: Is God an Alien?
Quote:If it exists, it can be observed.

Not if it exists as something unobservable.

Quote:If it can be observed, it can be studied.

Not if it can't be observed.

Quote:If it can be studied, it can be understood.

Not if it can't be studied. Or even observed.

Quote:If it can be understood, it can be explained.

Not if the above can't be done. You get the idea.

Quote:There's no such thing as "the supernatural". It's just a word we use for "not yet understood".

The supernatural is that which is beyond the natural realm, so if it can't be observed or studied because it's not part of the natural realm, that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It's undetectability and absence is indistinguishable, but that doesn't mean they're necessarily the same thing. They are in respect to human experience, but they aren't necessarily the same thing in principle. In actuality I mean.
