I don't think I can prove it. The best I think I can do is demonstrate that you don't fit the description of the Jewish G-d, but even then, we'd both have to agree that the description of G-d comes from Jewish sources.

Where else would it come from?

Wow, these few words jumped off the screen. Only yesterday I read a short story by Harry Harrison. "An Alien Agony" that describes just such a scenario.  

Quote:Paul Cook, describes "The Streets of Ashkelon" as "bitterly ironic" and "one of the saddest science fiction stories ever written".

Wikipedia: With spoilers.

I always think of The Man Who Would Be King (Connery/Caine) final scenes.

Hindi, Christian, Mormon or Muslim texts.

We are all gods until we die, and we have the privilege of existing.

Enjoy life, have lots of sex and be nice to those around you(unless they are dicks!)

I can prove you're not God, you sin. The God who gave use the scriptures says it's not possible for Him to sin.

PS. sorry to end this thread so soon.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Sin is whatever a god says it is. If I am a god, then I can say anything I do is not sin according to my own scripture. Also according to my scripture, your god sins, and therefore cannot possibly be a god.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

You're Jewish?

Edit: Oh wait! I missed the username. Yes, I remember that you have a Jewish connection. My Jewdar is very sensitive.

I'll call ya god. You'd make a more realistic one. You type you're own words.
