Default Re: if God exists outside of time + space...how can?

and please...no God can do whatever he wants because He's God type answers.

I just think it's usually rather foolish to try to come up with arguments about what is or is not metaphysically possible.

I'm sorry but if someone believes in an all-powerful God that built the universe, I'm pretty sure they aren't having trouble reasoning out how he could have talked to someone.

Because, like, regular humans can talk to each other, so I'm pretty sure this God could do it if he wants.

And, as you said yourself, it is only an assumption he is outside of time and space. He could be posting on 2+2 from some fortress way in the sky.

Hi Hypermegachi,
Read "Flatland". It would be no problem for a being who existed in a spatial 4th dimension (outside our 3 diminsions) to talk to us to pop into our locked rooms to disappear just as easily and all sorts of other amazing things.

In your example the 3d world world would, in fact, be part of the 4 spatial dimensional world but the 3d aware beings simply wouldn't be aware of the fact. The purported 4th dimensional being then _would_ be in the space and time of the 3D only aware beings and so not satisfy the criterion of the [oster that the being is outside their space and time..
