God is...

God is the condition upon which all other conditions depend
and without which, all other conditions could not be.

You've just encapsulated every post ever written by E-Man.

Like every other definition of "God" that mortals present, unless you are actually prepared to prove that such a condition exists as well as state all of the specific quailties of this "condition" so that they may be tested, you have said nothing. Nothing at all. All you have done is substitute one name for another.

Question is, is he saying this for God, or against God. You could look at it both ways. Not to be a smart ass, but it could be read that God is an affliction, without which all other afflictions could not be.

NO problem. Now the meat will be put on those bones. And that is a good thing. For the atheist evolutionists will object to even the encapsulation.
