Gods are abstract. They're amalgamations of belief, concepts given purpose by the flux of interpretation. They're not singular, they're not specific, they're not original, and this makes them fundamentally alien to how we understand named entities to be singular, as singular beings ourselves. At best, we can perhaps think of them more as a broad whole centred on the substance of their nature. But which nature? That nature isn't singular. And yet somehow the amalgamated whole presents itself to and interacts with us as a singular being regardless? At some point I would like to understand this better, but for now I'm thoroughly flummoxed.
