Is God a Countable Object?
- Thread starter Metempsychosis
- Start date
Very easy: One God.
Why? because if There are many they will conflict/compete in the creation and the universe. For example a certain God need colour (or specification in general) of something differ than the other God. That not happened in the fact.
No one able to have same stand of the Great/Powerful/Merciful ....etc. God

Not necessarily. For instance if you had just male and female Gods they could create in harmony I am sure. This is just hypothetical, I still think that One Source is probably.
Good point Madhuri, it implies that it should be countable, as objects exist seperately to one another. Perhaps this is partly the point, as to say that God is seperate to the objects of his creation makes God also an object. The problem then is that God, as object, is open to being missed, rejected or treated like any other tangeable object. I would be interested on the Islamic perspective on this, how is God independent of his objects yet not an object?
AR already knows my answer to his OP. God is One and his creation are not seperate. It is human perception alone which creates the apparent seperation, although with philosophy, logic, scriptures and inner investigation there appears to be no such division at the absolute level of understanding.
Clever, but only slightly, and not at all usefully. There is a difference between being a countable object and being unique.

Done here.
If something isn't countable, how is it possible to know that it's unique?
First, talk to me about object and something.

I would say not countable. From my perspective zero, one and infinity would all equally apply to god.

It is what it is
God could not be counted until about 400 BC when a Hindu mathematician invented "zero". Or maybe it was the Mayans? Whatever... you get my point.
