The Nature and Power of a Monotheistic God
Accordingly, God’s infinity is absolute. Thus, God’s infinity is not the highest transfinite number identified by Georg Cantor. Nor is God’s infinity identical to the mathematical infinities we find in the universe. In the universe, we will find only ‘finite infinities. All finite infinities are uncompleted and are thus indeterminate. An example of a finite infinity is the mathematical set of integers --- 1, 2, 3, ... etc. This finite infinity is uncompleted because it has no highest integer. But, the truths above tell us that God’s infinity is only one attribute of God. Since God is a completed infinity, God must have an infinite number of essential attributes. So, the nature of a monotheistic God is clearly seen as the greatest self-organizing thing that our minds can ever conceive. Thus, other gods do not exist.
One can now conclude that God has no oppositions. So, when we think about the symbols, infinite and finite, we immediately conclude that God unifies them and all other opposing symbols. We can also conclude that God and His universe form a single world and that a single scientific language will lead to all truths. Accordingly, a mediating world does not exist in between God and the universe. Thus, devils, demons, Satan, angels, ... etc. are nonexistences.
Further, the oneness of God and the universe tells us that God and the universe had no beginning and has no end because they have always been together and always will be together. With these new truths about God and the universe, the love of God replaces the fear of God and a second life in a Heaven or Hell becomes a myth. As seen above, the nature and power of a monotheistic are very different compared to what we have learned.

If Gods infinity is absolute, he must have all the qualities we can possibly think of, including cruelty, narrowmindedness, jealousy, stupidity and arrogance. Wouldn't you agree?

asnawathan pandhi,
Your question is great. The opposites are very hard to teach in the USA because the mindset of Americans have developed a hard mind that can't be opened easily. This troublesome American mind developed as a result of the long use of the English language and the imbedding of the Aristotelian categories and logicn in it.
God does not unfold absolute maximums and absolute minimums to the universe. God only unfolds relative essences to the universe. So, any quality in the universe has changing qualities that can become maximums or minimums. But, these variations can't become absolute maximums or absolute minimums.
So all qualities in the universe are governed by the law of 'more or less.' For example, stupidity can become more or less but cannot become absolute maximum or absolute minimum.

rev.wilkinson,
You seem to be willing to make such a statement when you haven't sought the facts on my side. Anyway our differences are private matters.
