93. I am proposing that whatever caused "Cause and Effect" could
Edited on Tue Oct-31-06 07:20 PM by patrice
be called "God" (because people usually define "God" as ((amongst other things)) the Creator) and whatever that is, whatever caused cause-and-effect, we don't know anything more about it than that. We don't know anything more about it than that something has been created. All other divine attributions are more or less in error.

Are you sure your objections are with what I'm saying (i.e. something caused the physical world) or with what you THINK my definition of "God" is (i.e. the conventional paternalistic Great-Teddy-Bear who dotes on every human twitch).

I don't believe in what most people believe in when they refer to "God".
