The Immortal, Eternal God is Dead . . .

another question:people often describe God as living. or so it seems. i have a problem with this.being called "alive", or "living", carries the implication of death. what lives, dies. it also means that at one time, you did not exist (as in, your soul/mind/conscience/however else you define it), and that at a later point, you will no longer exist (unless you believe in some sort of afterlife, at which point you stop existing on this world, but move to another world).if God is "alive", he did not exist at one point. He then, is not eternal. If he is "living", he will no longer exist at one point. he is not, then, immortal. God, then, is limited.I contend that God, if he exists (which many here do believe) would have to just "be". In other words, he's a rock. To be immortal and eternal, one cannot be alive, or have been alive, or will be alive.basically, God is neither alive or dead, but just "is".

just a thought I had.
glad someone finally got around to looking at it.it probably won't generate much debate (very few of my threads have--only 2 can I name: morality and evolution, why do right).I'd like to see it promoted, if only to see what others have to say on the issue.i'm sort of contending the notion that God is alive, thanks to the definition of living (or rather, what living implies--death).
