I'mma just repeat the edited bit that I threw in a little later for the sake of ease-of-access:
I wouldn't say that God exists as an idea, we would attest that God is a being that meets the parameters of a philosophical person. But I would say that God exists so far beyond human compression that we only really have an idea of what God's true nature actually is.
Any idea about God's nature that we attest, we also attest that is was God who revealed it to us. But that's a separate discussion.As for the post-I-snipped itself, I think that pretty much settles everything into 'we're gonna have to agree to disagree'. I'm perfectly fine with the mundane world, as I find the mundanity pretty in its own way. Mayhap it is not the same for you, that you choose to look towards other things, but I'm perfectly fine with acknowledging that different people have different preferences.
Though I'll never understand why some people actually like broccoli... fucking disgusting.
Mundane, in the religious sense, doesn't mean boring or trivial just differentiating physical realm vs higher realms like Heaven. I don't trivialize scientific endeavor, quite the contrary I think being a scientist is on par with being a priest. Just as studying a painting gives us insight into the mind of the painter, studying creation gives us insight into the mind of God. In many ways, scientists see the face of God clearer than many priests. It is truly a holy profession.
And broccoli is pretty good, when it's smothered in cheese.
Then our definition of mundane is the same. I prefer the worldly and physical realm. It is pretty.
Also: you... broccoli... you... you... FIEND FROM THE DEPTHS OF COCYTUS!
But really though, broccoli and cheese makes me gag. I acknowledge that folks like broccoli, but I just can’t imagine why. I won’t hold it against them tho.
