Which god?
I think you mean "where", and that'll depend on which god you're asking about.

Silly question, everyone knows that he's made of puppy smiles and unicorn farts.
So any takers
I'm polytheist, pick one.
I'm a taker. Just pick a god.

i would but you did not specify which god s you believe in for me to choose
well what are your gods made off
I believe in the Anglo-Saxon and Roman pantheons. My gods are made of Awesome and Win.

What is god made of. Is god's construction - and I'm talking christian god or allah here - forced to conform to the laws of the universe?
I think christians would say he's too mysterious to be made of anything, or that he can be whatever he wants.

If you know that it's power, it can't be that unimaginable.
God is made of: sugar, spice and everything nice.
Why? Because I wanted to be the first one to say so.

God is like made out of god, or something.
I think that's the only theologically valid statement, within Abrahamic faiths. If G-d is "made out of" something or "made of" or "is something", where did the "something" come from, and who the heck made it?!?
"Obviously I'm convinced of the existence of G-d. I'm equally convinced that Atheists who've led good lives will be in Olam HaBa going "How the heck did I wind up in this place?!?" while Christians who've treated people like dirt will be in some other place asking the exact same question."
Aren't awesome and win human constructs
Therefore man made ?
Any thing is valid to theologians
God is made of god hahahahahah
The universe is made of universe
lol
Lets go with consciousness and energy, no physical parts because god (abrahamic god of course here) is everywhere and anywhere yeah that it energy and consciousness (see I can be non descriptive and well blatantly non logical with the description of god too
)
As for the rest of the gods, even the roman gods had been said they had human bodies (a few of them were mixtures of other creatures) but alas they share the same thing with the Abrahamic god....no evidence at all for their existance.....so I cannot really say what they are made up....oh wait yes I can, I can use my imagination just like humans have done to create these beings, they are made of star dust and magic....of awesome god powers and god DNA yeah baby.......and other stuff. Stuff that scientists cannot find because they lack faith in these gods to prove they are real, and the evidence isn't there because the gods don't want you to know they really exist...yeah baby yeah
I told my Atheist friend Stephen that he didn't see as many unicorns because there were too few virgins anymore.
That's my story, and I'm sticking with it.

So what exactly are win and awesome? Perhaps two noew quarks? In which case, you need to provide masses and coupling constants.

are you bringing science to a theist
good luck ahahha 
Well, someone has to try...
=
the buybull says if first you fail try try again
i guess you just following the buybull
I like science.
we all should but dam you beautifull
Which brings me to my new argument.
1. My statement was a joke.
2. You claimed my statement is "theologically valid."
3. Assuming #2 is true, God is a joke.
I'm sorry Ciarin but it doesn't matter if you like science or not, it's whether or not you use it in your life.
What are you going on about? And why are you sorry?

God is made of semen. How else could he have gone inside Mary and made baby jesus.
FUCK! Why am I the last one to know? Serves me right for falling asleep in science class.

In all seriousness, I like you, but I cant pick who is worse as far as not facing the facts, you, or the monotheist in people like Fortunate Son.
Your motif in tactic has been the same since you first came here, "I don't deny that I merely like it". That may one step better than the indignant reaction of others, but you still refuse to provide evidence for your claims other than the same fallacy they commit in "plenty of people have claimed this".
You try to doge your evidence that there is more than one god, which is a safe assumption if you are going to call yourself a polytheist, as per your PERSONAL belief, which you admit is a personal belief, falsely thinking that absolves you from proving your claims.
You are pulling the same passive aggressive tactic I see monotheist pull, you are simply trying to pretend that you are justified in your beliefs without demonstrating them as fact.
Your argument boils down to the same as a Christian or or Muslim.
So what if WE agree that you merely like your belief.
That is still a doge. If you are a polytheist then it is up to you to prove each and every god you claim just as I would expect from a monotheist. You cant, and you admited you cant. So all you have done is admit you merely like your claim.
I think you have the SAME insecurity they do. Rather than test your claim with introspection you try to cop out to "I am not like them" "I am no threat to you" when the reality is you fear self introspection and the scrutiny of others, just like monotheists.

If as you believe that there are multiple deities, then that would mean that there are multiple brains with no brains. You can give them whatever names you want you are STILL, just like a monotheist, claiming that thinking like a human exists in the non-material world. They have one invisible super hero and you have many, but all I see is a bunch of humans latching onto placebos.

quadruple post ftw!
you still havent adressed his issue
His issue has been dealt with ad nauseum in a previous thread. He's just a sore loser cause he couldn't beat me in a debate on my religion, and now he's trying to bait me into going through it again. He needs to QQ more.

um... what about the NAVY..? lol
God is made of semen
Semen / Seamen
Seamen / Navy
Navy excludes Marines/Army/Air Force
Excluding Marines/Army/Air Force from the jesus factor makes them angry
Joke explained, moving on...
What Would Kharn Do?
I also think that you are avoiding answering his question.If you have already answered that question somewhere else could you post a link to it please.

I'll look for it later. Does the search function work on this board?
I'm not sure but you can find your posts from your account page under the tab Track, not sure if that helps.

I'd love to hear a theory on what god could possibly be made of. Fred's original post is similar to a question Brian37 has posed many times relating to the physicality or non physicality of god and the resulting ability of such a god to have a discernible influence on a physical universe. I think atheists and many theists would agree there's no way ideas about a supernatural god are remotely falsifiable in this universe - that means a supernatural god is a moot point in terms of our ability to know anything about it in our particular reality. At the same time we see no evidence of a physical god.
Moving away from that - what could a powerful physical god be made of? Is a god like this even possible?

Ok, I'll try that.

It's probably too late in the discussion for my two cents worth, but here they are for what it's worth:
I think a serious enquiry into that question would lead one to a similar explanation to that given in science. The following is all hypothetical, and I have no idea what I am saying.
Bosonic string theory (26D theory) posits strings that are not quite physical, yet underly all of what we refer to as reality. There is a variation on 10D theory by a critic of Stephen Hawkins (can't remeber who, but can find out) that suggests super strings vibrating in the tenth dimension create all universes, both in and out of time, with varying laws of physics in each (infinite) universe. This guy says that these strings are wound so tight that the 10th dimension is actually the zero dimension accounting for infinite curviature or something.
That aside, you could imagine God as an 11th anti-dimension, giving him/it all the properties usually associated with the Christian God - omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence etc. The 11th dimension would also account for why humans cannot understand omni attributes - because they are features of a higher dimension. Indeed, humans cannot be said to understand any dimension higher than the one they are conscious of, so we are stuck at the 3rd for the moment.
To cut a long story short, if science can posit a para-physical semi-entity such as "strings" within a hypotheical, stacking-dimension theory to explain reality, then I have no problem positing a transitional-transcendental entity to explain said strings. On a side note, however, I think - quite similar to what I think about Swinburne's theodicy/science mash - that the buck stops at God rather arbitrarily in this scenerio. Maybe I should write my thesis on that...
Are you sayin that in another dimension a being can over power the logical absolutes
the ominis whether in another dimension is not posible
its like saying in the 11th demension a square circle is reality ....BS .... NOT POSSIBLE in no demension
also about strings they would be part of our universe and does not transcends anything because evrything would be made of strings even matter
so still no mind floating around without a brian ......
It would most likely be impossible to know one way or the other. Logical impossibilities may or may not be... possible, but why does that matter for the purpose of finding out what God is made of?
Why?
I think at about dimension 7 or so, it actually does become a possibility. According to theoretical physicists, other universes may have completely different laws of physics - the speed of light not being constant, no laws of thermodynamics etc. Have you watched this short film yet? Tell me what you think.
(That is why I said I have no trouble imagining a God to create them)
I'm not sure if God even has a "mind" outside of the metaphorical sense of the word.

"God is light." 1 John 1:5

I read every post and I found it rather pointless. You like what you believe and nothing more.

Yes quite pointless. I'm surprised you read every post.

That might be so, however the above is not an explanation, it is a statement. It would be remiss of me to think that "Just because" was an answer to the question of "Why should God exist?" That said, there are some people who think that "because" is an answer. I realise there might be a language barrier between us, so it's not a major issue.
Ahh, the ol'probability v. possibility debate. I've heard it said more than once on this forum that the probability of the universe existing with the fundamentals for life is 100%. Whatever their reasoning is, I'm sure it can be adapted to suit just about any theory.
But that is quite irrelevant. You said that LI is impossible in any dimension. Now you are conceding that LI may be possible, but not probable.
If I knew the answer to that question, I would be rich (or dead). The concept of "made of" is flawed in 10D theory. The strings I was talking about are not "made of" anything. They are vibrating or colliding waves, or something like that. If God needs something to make him, then those strings need something to make them, since being "made of" nothing is presumably logically impossible.
Of course, if being made of nothing is not LI, then you have solved your initial enquiry
Its really pointless to jump this far ahead though. There are more elemetary arguments against the existence of God than the question of composition; that remain unanswered.
