IDEA THIRTY-ONE: Resist belief in a personal God
To search for the truth, yes; but to think that there is somebody or something we call God, no.
It cannot even be said that He exists. Even that is too concrete. Then you cannot say that He is wise or that He knows. Because if He knows, then there are two things - the known and the One who knows. And that is too detailed for God. He should be an indefinite divinity...
...because the machine of the world is exceedingly complex for the simplicity of men.
