RE: Is "GOD" OmniPresent? Another Working Definition Of God(because threads closed LOL)
To me, "THE" God (not just yhwh of the abrahamic denomiantions) must comply
with the following states of being for me to 1. accept that entity as a "GOD"
& 2. to even begin considering whether that "GOD" is worthy of my "Worship"
however that is defined by me &/or my "GOD".
OK here are my postulations.
A: 1st and foremost "GOD" must exhibit/display 100% Perfection
Now to qualify how I define Perfection
A: OmniPresence ie 100% everywhere & everything simultaneously . why? because
to be less than 100% implies lack and this is a Quality that i have found
few Theists to agree with that "GOD" embodies this state.
Now what are the basic theological implications of OmniPresence?
I see it thus...
A: OmniPresence implies both Omniscience (if "GOD" is everywhere and every
thing simultaneously then "GOD" "knows itself implicitly" at that
scale/level) & OmniPotence (if "GOD" is everywhere,everything & knows it then
that "GOD" has complete control of its entire self therefore is ALL
powerfull)
What implications does this hold for me if it has basis in fact beyond
reasonable doubt (qualified as repeatable verifiable empirical evidence and
peer reviewed logical arguments that stand up to repeated test and scrutiny).
Well here is my reasoning...
IF "GOD" "IS!" as i have qualified as above, then I am a part of that "GOD"!
WOW what a Revelation! Then why do i see flaws,imperfection,negetive,evil &
ineffecient realities around me? well hmmm let me Rationalize and base it on
my very 1st premise (That "GOD" must be Perfect) and i summize thus...Im in a
State of Perfect Illusion (ie im fooling myself by my own perception of lack
as I am not the entirety of "GOD" instead Im just a pixel in the fractal
state of that "GOD" and until i can percieve from a entire universal level at
a minimum that illusion will remain. Does this mean "GOD" doesn't exist.Not
to me it doesn't.Also regardless of whether im fooling myself or not I
believe that "GOD" can exhibit perfect states of evil (just as good) or
negetivity (just as positively or balance even) but i qualify that i find it
challenging to resolve these states agreeably within my consciousness when
experienced.
Have I missed anything??

Become totally disillusioned & see everything for real.
