What's a god? How can I meaningfully ascribe any qualities whatsoever to a non-corporeal, non-perceptible entity? What does it even mean to ask if things that are outside of our universe "exist"?
Etcetera etcetera. You can't even get past the superficial layers of "Is there a god?" without hitting questions that are ill-formed.

- dbrueck 5y agoThat's fair. FWIW, many people (including myself) believe that God is both corporeal as well as perceptible, though the latter is on His terms (because, I suspect, He wants it to happen for each person individually).
