Show me your definition of GOD(s).

I bet he thinks he's clever... He just doesn't know how to say anything else and really hates the concept of universal morality.
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

I don't hate a nonexistent concept. I can't much say, however, that I'd like a being which had the audacity to tell me that his idea of morality was superior to everyone else's just because he has the power to destroy everything. God's morality is exactly as subjective as my own. Only difference is that I exist, so my opinion actually matters, however little.

Not clever by half to leave out define what it LOOKS LIKE in making such an absurd claim.

The basic concept of VISION? Why do not they say so?

Quote:But, people can define God because they can see through multiple mediums. History, life experience, and logic are like open windows.

Please explain how using all of those but without vision makes is possible for the blind to define what it LOOKS LIKE.

@Ryan

The concept exists. You have the concept. The concept doesn't exist outside your mind, though. And to be honest, I'm really glad yours doesn't exist outside your mind, because you think God is this twisted thing when he's not even close.

@Nony

Idk what God looks like. I can just prove his existence. I can't prove a lot about him, but I can prove something.

A blind man can do the same thing with respect to the moon. To say otherwise is absurd.

And I don't need to see the Roman Empire to know it existed. I don't need to see Obama to know he existed. I don't need to see you to know you exist. Sight isn't everything.
The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.

Here I am using the term Supreme Being in the most generic way. I have not attributed any property to it other than being the greatest possible thing that exists. Is there a Totality? I cannot imagine otherwise, nor do I think any other possibility is logically consistent.
