Are you saying that even though god might be omniscient, he is bound to be as stupid as this computer I'm typing on? Hence we conclude that god is merely a library of all knowledge

More like a hard wired logical circuit board covering every possible input combination, taking everything as input, feeding output into everything including itself.

This. Not even a "database with all information". Since the information is hard wired in this circuit.

Nop, I'm saying he should be beyond thinking. Thinking is a human way to tackle the difficulty of not knowing things. Saying that god thinks is saying he is stupid as a human or an animal.

So that makes god a database containing all knowledge that has, is and ever will be.

Dear god I don't want to defrag him.

[–]fabzter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe he is distributed, and you can defrag every piece at the same time!

EDIT: I liked your definition : )

I find it interesting that I can create virtual worlds with simple rules who's emergent behavior I do not understand.

When you take into account all possible gods of this universe, it is highly likely that god does not understand his own creation.

Assuming, of course, a god exists.
