There should be a LAW requiring people who talk about "God" to have a good, working definition of "God" before they do. Christians of all manner of types have all manner of "God", Muslims too, and so on. So if you are looking for "God" in contemporary cosmology just exactly what are you looking for and how will you know when and if you find it?

"God" is a nonsense word, with so many meanings it has no meaning. Sort of like "love". We love chocolate ice cream, our kids, movies, Mustangs. Politicians "love" us. It's another word with so many meanings it is meaningless.

Seriously, what are they looking for when they look for "God" in cosmology?

  - "Why is it so difficult to believe that there is something greater than ourselves with a power that we flow within, and add to?" - alcaray - 9/25/2013 10:28:39 PM
    - There is a power greater than ourselves. And that can be called "God" if one chooses. - bowser - 9/26/2013 12:21:09 AM

    - I really think this is an unfair criticism of the agnostic/atheist/deist viewpoint. - Jody - 9/25/2013 9:33:45 PM

    - All right, tell me. When he does find God, what does he find? (His term, after all.) - bowser - 9/26/2013 12:14:23 AM
      - Does it even matter what you ask? - Jody - 9/26/2013 2:13:24 AM
  - Maybe, just maybe, - ER - 9/25/2013 12:10:16 PM
    - Reasonable apology, but without a definition of "God" it's all BS. - bowser - 9/26/2013 12:19:06 AM
