Having opted for idealism over materialism as the source of ultimate reality, the next question in the sequence revolves around God. What do logic and experience tell me about the nature of the divine?
God is the creator of the universe. He (language fails me here–God transcends sexuality) is the source of matter, life, and love. He is immortal, universal, and unchanging.
This definition owes something to Greek philosophy and something to Deism. It doesn’t play well with the three major Western religions. More on that in my next post on metaphysics.
