Re: Reality: What a concept!
I think that ramoss is taking exception with your use of the phrase : "quite rightly".
ok...maybe i don't need to think it...its pretty clear what he's taking exception with
The thing is, the implication of its use is that God quite clearly is external to our imaginations; and true, many believe this. However there are some that do not believe this.
Should you say without a shadow of a doubt that the latter group is wrong? I don't think so, simply because all you have to support this view is your faith in it.
I'm not saying you're wrong...i'm just saying, how do you know they are wrong?

"The good Christian should beware the mathematician and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of hell." - St. Augustine
