Ontology of God--Theological Noncognitivist View

Nope. I said:

Simply halt the circular discussion to move forward.

From this point forward all meaningless comments such as the above in this post shall cease. I will ignore them if you continue to post them.
Quote:I think you confuse 'knowing everything' with knowing something.
No, I don't think I do sir. You know something about God...didn't you yourself just say:

Which is it? You cannot have it both ways. Then everything becomes even more interesting when you say:

Quote:God is not entirely physical. He is in his creation which is necessarily part of him.

If he is partly physical, how can you determine that this physical part is actually of God? If he is "not entirely physical" that means part of him is, in which case observing him should not be a problem.

Again you assume that God is in its creation (you also assume God is a man by the consistent use of "his/him" but that is an aside...it is still rather annoying though, sorry)...what about the possibility that, for argument's sake, there is a God that just "doesn't give a shit," in the words of George Carlin. You automatically dismiss the deist position. There is a more fundamental problem with what you said, though, and it is in brackets below...but we can save that for another discussion momentarily.

*For the start of a new thread*
[Can you explain how you know it is in us and we are part of it? Did God give us his genes? You need to explain this whole creation topic (though not here). I shall start another thread sometime today presenting this new challenge. ]
Quote:How do you not know? Answer: you don't.

What is there to not know, and how do you know?
