Not all religions view their deities as such. http://ph.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120408073411AAsplzc http://ph.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120408073411AAsplzc Sun, 08 Apr 2012 07:39:02 GMT In my religion, the universe has always existed. The gods came around at a later time. They are also not omnipotent (though they can influence our world). I'm sure there are other religions with different ideas of what their gods are like but I'm just here to show you that not all definitions of a god are the same. http://ph.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120408073411AAsplzc http://ph.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120408073411AAsplzc Sun, 08 Apr 2012 07:48:25 GMT Line up 10 theists. Ask them to define "god". You will get 10 different definitions. Problem you get with an infinite being (if ANY exists) is that the finite human mind cannot understand the infinite, any "god" that may exist is both unknown and unknowable. Blessings on your Journey!
