Here are the defining attributes of a typical god:
wikipedia
* Omniscience - (or omniscient point-of-view in writing) is the capacity to know everything infinitely, or at least everything that can be known about a character including thoughts, feelings, life and the universe, etc. In monotheism, this ability is attributed to God. The God of the Bible is often referred to as "The Great I Am," among other similar names, which also incorporates his omnipresence and omnipotence.
* Omnipresence or ubiquity is the property of being present everywhere. According to eastern theism, God is present everywhere. Divine omnipresence is thus one of the divine attributes, although in western theism it has attracted less philosophical attention than such attributes as omnipotence, omniscience, or being eternal. In western theism, omnipresence is roughly described as the ability to be "present everywhere at the same time", referring to an unbounded or universal presence. It is related to the concept of ubiquity, the ability to be everywhere or in many places at once. This characteristic is most commonly used in a religious context, as most doctrines bestow the trait of omnipresence onto a superior, usually a deity commonly referred to as God by monotheists. This idea differs from Pantheism.
* Omnipotence (from Latin: Omni Potens: "all power") is unlimited power. Monotheistic religions generally attribute omnipotence to only the deity of whichever faith is being addressed. In the philosophies of most Western monotheistic religions, omnipotence is often listed as one of a deity's characteristics among many, including omniscience, omnipresence, and omnibenevolence.
/wikipedia
We will leave out omnibenevolent or omnimalevolent, as this is not a major deciding factor of deification.
So to be a god, you must know everything. And to know everything you have to be everything and everywhere. To be everything and know everything means to have all power and all knowledge...and so forth in circular reasoning and method.
My question: Is god a hunk of shit?
Please feel free to vote in the poll as well.
Thankyou
