If I defined God as totality, would you say God then exists by that definition?

Quote from WaveStrider:

By "consciousness", God is usually referred to as having independent consciousness, not as a collective aggregation of consciousnesses.

So by that definition, Totality may or may not = God, depending on if you ascribe Totality as having independent consciousness.

But that returns to a more refined definition of Totality. If it is a self-referential synonym for God, then it must by it's own definition be true.

The self-awareness of that Totality - that is above and beyond the sum of parts - is where the question really is.

I did say..... "therefore "totality is God" would not be true , even if it could be at all true, perhaps in some sub context."

" a more refined definition of Totality" is a sub context.

God cannot be totality... because it's totality that is whatever totality is.
 
God doesn't have a totality, God is totality...

If there is a GOd then he exists. If he exists then he can be defined. If he can be defined then God has limit. If God has limit then he is not totality.

stu, how's my 'buffalo' logic so far :cool: :D
 
Totality can be defined quite easily. Unlimited can be defined quite easily.

God is totality.
God is unlimited.

In your case, understanding advanced concepts beyond the primitive is not so easy...

Titality (LOL that's what you are) ..Totality has totality, and it is totality.... so God can't be.

Get that treadmill gif out of your toy cupboard. You're in it.:p
