I am saying that if one is to be a true searcher of truth, one must not start with preconditions on what the nature of God is. I am saying that you apparently are doing just that.

I’m responding to the story. The story and video use an argument based upon assumptions and I was responding to that, not attempting to derive the actual nature of God, nor to determine whether or not He exists.

We as humans generally interact with the universe according to Newtonian assumptions. Even though we know they’re false, they work fine as an approximation for everyday activities. But we are to get rigorous in discussions of God, we have to face the assumptions of causality, etc., and even break down and examine what our definition of “God” is.
