Acceptable Gods

Back


Since I am an atheist, the term 'god', like the terms 'religion' and 'spirituality', is not one that I have access too. Rather than just writing off these words as meaningless though I'd rather try to find interpretations which I can feel at least partially comfortable with. There are a couple of understanding of 'god' that I (almost) recognise; one drawing on the Parmenidean idea of god as a perfect sphere and the other as related to a metaphorical boundary of knowing. Neither are anything like the personal god of most religions.
