Default Re: Is there a God? If there is, does Sklansky believe in Him?

okay. my mistake if it is not from postmodern thought. it seems precisely the kind of argument such philosophers would make, though.

by 'God', let's use the traditional Christian definition of Him that has been painstakingly elaborated on and specified by great theologians over thousands of years.

'God': an eternal, all powerful being, omnipresent, omniscient, merciful, etc., etc.

Here is a very cursory, succinct definition, yet definitely sufficiently clear in defining some basic attributes of God. You can read the Nicene Creed, etc., or the works of Aquinas/Augustine for much more in depth description. It is clear who the 'God' is that I refer to. Thoughts?
