Is God a God? If he wasn't a God, why would they call him God? If he is a God, then he could be called anything he wants, like Melvin or Sam.
Discuss.

Nope, that would be 'Is God God?' I would say, no, God is not a god. Proof: Let God be a god, by definition, God is then omnipotent and thus can do any thing. So He can then create any rock. Including a rock so large that he cannot put it up his own arse. But that means there is some thing He cannot do, but if he were a god, he could do any thing. Thus, God cannot be a god by contradiction, quod erat demonstrandum. |

No. God is a title, so who is he really? |

The constant stream of deity themed threads on this board is a bit puzzling to me. Is the Church Chat site redirecting people here?

God is not a he to begin with Goodchild. God is has no gender. God is only a God to those who believe he is God. In a sense, God could simply be a manifestation of our Godlike connections to universe. God could be the idea of moralistic beahvior. God could be an interdimensional being (ST 5). God could be an omnipotent being that has left the Earth behind. God could be dead. There are of course many more possibilities to consider, but this could on forever. There is no standing proof of what or where God is or exists. The bible is too vague and was written by men and written on their intrepretations of God. Nor is it specific enough to get a clear idea of God. We have no proof as to what or who God is.

As is Zeus! And Thor. And Odin. And Jupiter. And Osiris. And Apollo! And Bastet. And . . . So many "gods", so little time. |

Strange how they've been predicting the end of the world for over 2,000 years. Even in the bible Jesus says he would return within the lifetimes of his original followers. Yet, we're still here and he isn't. Fascinating, isn't it? |
