I've posted before about Karen Armstrong, author of A History of God and The Case for God, among other titles. I admire her work. But I'd never heard her speak. You might be interested in these videos ... mikecrusoesblog.wordpress.com/

God is not mocked, and God is not simply a subject of academic study. No case needs to be made for God. It is like arguing the case for the existence of cats or dogs.

Dogs and cats are visible and can be measured. Tell me where your imaginary god is visible and how I can measure him/her/it in order to prove it exists.

Cats may well think they are gods. LOL.
I had a look at a couple of the videos Pim - she is on what I'd call common ground for all religions here of course.
I remember you pointing out her work a couple of years back and I still haven't got to reading any. It is still in the pipeline though.

God is not in the abstract, God is as real as you and me.

God is not in the abstract, God is as real as you and me. I can see and/or measure real stuff. I cannot see and/or measure your imaginary god, therefore your god must be abstract.
