God as a non-empirical being
#32
RE: God as a non-empirical being
He or she sounds like me: arrogant pompous ass. :-) What he/she may be getting at is that God isn't just a thing among other things. Sensible objects exist in time & space, are subject to various types of cause, have potentials, etc. In contrast to this, any god worthy of the name would be the cause of space, time and material, be in full actuality, serve as the foundation of cause.
