If you cause an effect, as you're proposing God does, you become detectable. That is, after all, how we detect things - by the effects they cause.
So if I kick a football through your window, and you look out and no one is there, you can detect me? How do you know whether the gale force wind smashed your window or me?
If I put pebbles in the pond, can you detect me in the pond? Who's to say that they were put there naturally or I threw them?
If I kickstart my bike, can you detect me in the bike?
If God made something happen in the natural, could you detect him?
You're part of the same world as the motorcycle. You "transcend" nothing.
But my substitution for the motorcycle, is the natural. Everything in the universe, and the engine is it's workings. Can you detect me in the engine if I ride/kickstart it?
you can't have something that is both able to influence and be undetected. There's no such thing as an undetectable influence.
Can't? Even if that's true to human knowledge (limited) then God can have what he darn well wants, nothing is impossible to him. Remember, if he's clever enough to make this universe, then he's gonna have MORE than Crahsfrog's
can's and
cannots - and he sure as hell isn't going to be limited by what you say.
A stiff wind blows you sideways and stops you from falling off a cliff. How can
you know whether God influenced the wind or not?
What you've just said is that there is no God because we cannot detect him. This is arrogance speaking. You are forgetting what I said, that nothing is impossible with God.
If I kick a football through your window - it leaves no detectable trace of my kicking it(cause). I cannot be detected.
Now forget "worlds"
My substitutions are this;
Motorbike; The universe
Me; God.
That is the analogy!
