For example, can't theists be defined as people who believe in a supernatural creator, a personal god who can interfere with the laws of the universe?
Well supernatural means 'more than natural' but in effect it means less than because nature describes what the universe is, if there were something, more 'beyond' that, it would have to be incorporated in to nature at some point.
Also the word 'god' like the word 'monster' describe things that don't exist. They describe one-way relationships. If I say he is a monster, or he is a god, you know how I feel about that person. How could they be either of those things in isolation? They couldn't.
Thoughts, anyone?

The essence of God is in being mysterious and indescribable. Limitations in the English language does not automatically mean God is false it just means the language is limited in explaining the very complicated, incomprehensible nature of God.
P.S. what 'stormy in the north' says above is simply rubbish,,, that means almost everything we base human life on is false because there is very little that we know as fact,, take science for example.

Anything that isn't fact is false, so I'm pretty sure religion false under this category !!
Rachie because you don't agree with my philosophy on life does not mean it's rubbish ,it's simply a difference of opinion. Take the big bang theory in my book it's false as it cannot be proven otherwise.Please feel free to show me factual proof it happened !! And as for science the majority is proven fact through years of trial and error.

To be honest I don't think we have enough of a capacity to understand more then our five sense, one example I see would be that fish can see infra red, we can't does that mean we understand more then them, or them more then us, for thousands of years we didn't even know about infra-red, so although we are advancing slowly we still have a long way to go before we can even begin to answer questions like this, but at least we're thinking of them, makes us drive towards an answer.
