Additionally, saying something isn't coherently defined isn't even of the ballpark of being correct. We have dictionaries, encyclopedias that define things, including "God" or "gods." So if you find those definitions incoherent, then it's a personal malfunction of your ability to comprehend something. Heck, I can comprehend who "Zeus" is supposed to be, even though I don't assert any special meaning to him that dictates my own life.
2. It is defined. See 1. Do we need to start referencing said literature for definitions? Maybe then we can have a definition YOU can understand.
YOU, troll, have no coherent definition of a god. There is no coherent definition, and that is why Igtheism is a thing.

Christians claim they have a "timeless" "eternal" deity ... yet ascribe to it all sorts of temporal acts. THAT is incoherent.
EVERY quality or property of their god(s) requires time. YOU have no coherent definition of any god.
BTW, it's "not IN the ballpark", not "of the ballpark". You're in WAY over your head.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
