CP's requirement is not contradictory. The almighty Zorp tells me so.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Saerules,

Dotard is a myth, his writings are outdated and he no longer shows up like he used to, therefore he probably doesn't exist. I am an aDotardist. If he does exist I would vlorp him in the pingle so hard that no shleezle could defend against it!

Oh, and I am resurescted and you can check the damage to my pingle as proof that I was once dead.

I don't feel that my requirement is contradictory.If you are going to assert that big foot exists for example you must first prove that he does before you start talking about him being a herbivore or a meat eater,whether he is friendly or hostile towards humans etc.I just feel that all these discussions about an hypothetical God make no sense since most people are basing their descriptions of this God on the bibles descriptions of him and the faith of most theists.Since God cannot be proven to the satisfaction of non believers and atheists then he is nothing more than an hypothesis and any further speculation on his attributes are also hypothetical and subject to the interpretation of the believer.

Also,if my requirement is contradictory I would love to know what is contradictory about it?Contradictory to what my friend?
There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition

@ CP: Contradictory to the logic of the Christian God, in that his existence cannot be known, even to believers.

If people are going to criticize the God I believe in, then I feel justified in correcting any misrepresentation.

If you are going to define your god as being beyond the reach of science then you must demonstrate exactly why that definition is valid otherwise you are just doing the usual theist trick of special pleading.
