If everything needs a cause, there can't be an uncaused cause and you've defined God out of existence.
Why can't the original cause (God) be uncaused? You seem to slip that in as though it is a given, let alone make any sense.
If anything doesn't need a cause, there's no logical need for a God.
Why?
Your concept is too wishy-washy to be of any use.
By your responses, it's hardly surprising you see it that way.
I think you're covertly trying to prove that God does not exist. Are you?
But you're the one who's being evasive. You seem to be either unwilling or unable to discuss the topic honestly.
How so?
Been there, done that.
Then why do ask what pure spirit is, or if we can communicate with a non material being?
So how would I distinguish between the Bible and Animal Farm?
When you were looking at the scriptures, could you make the distinction?
How do you expect anybody to use a methodology that they have no idea of?
You've read scriptures. Are you telling me you still have no idea?
All you're saying is that you have to believe before you can believe. That's circular nonsense.
Now you're resorting to lying?
You're not interested in God.
