"The logic of infinities (see set theory) requires that an absolute God be One.
The many gods of the limited variety can fulfill various niches, but in their imperfection they always leave room for yet one more god."

Absolutes are categorically different from the world of particulars. Logical treatment of particulars is well known. Logical treatment of absolutes is based on the set theoretical work of Georg Cantor with infinities.
Note that in the quote I tried to indicate the absolute, infinite nature of God, as against the limited nature of many gods. God can be either outside the universe, or be transcendental. Many gods are in this universe, and are particular and countable.

The set of all gods contains each god, or a set for each god, as a member, plus the usual null set. That it be open ended is the historical norm. Therefore, new gods can be added to the set.

The set of God has room for only one member, and the null set. This follows from the algebra of infinities. Infinities added to each other or multiplied by any number are all identical. In Cantor's terminology, equal to aleph naught. Identical members of a set are represented only once, since it is still the same member. Ergo, an absolute God is One.

Sure, now prove that a 'God' exists.
 
*Sure, now prove that a 'God' exists.

And you had to take the words right out of my mouth?. LOL..

I was waiting to see yada,yada's proof of god, but mostly what I read was bla,bla,bla,bla...

bla,bla,bla? How so, if you don't mind.

In the meanwhile,
1. Ideas are mentally real
2. I have an idea of God
3. Therefore God is mentally real
 
Wait I have another one,
1. Ideas are mentally real
2. I have an idea of The Lochness monster
3. Therefore The Lochness monster is mentally real
 
Wait I have yet another one

1 Ideas are mentally real
2 I have an idea I can fly
3 Therefore I can fly.

If you believe that logic of yours, I've got a gold watch I can sell you.

yada,

What about the case for many unlimited gods?

And what the heck is an absolute God? And is that any different to an absolute god?

Doesn't your reasoning depend on how we choose to define what is meant by a god? And since we can define them any way we wish (there being no frame of reference in reality) then your assertions have next to no useful meaning, right?
 
path, Godless,
What did you expect, a miracle? Sorry,
Logic, faith, and the ojective world are mutually exclusive. Each can only interact with its own kind.
Logic is axiomatic. Premises, rules, logical objects, relations. To a child, flying and lochie, and angels can be very real. Just watch television for a while. Is ANYTHING you see real?
 
yadayadayada in the words of john mcenroe: you cannot be serious man.

1 Ideas are mentally real
2 I have an idea my arse talks
3 Wow a talking arse.

you are going to have to come up with,something much better then that, and less funny, I've got stitch from all the laughing.


watching tv broadens the mind, no nothing on tv is real but it is recordings of true events/happenings apart from the fictional programs like csi miami,the bible hour etc.
