"There is nothing outside of Him to allow Him to be motivated
externally in the way described, and if there were, its value would be
something He decided, and so could add nothing to Him and provide
nothing for Him, but that which He decided it should have. Nothing can
give Him anything, because everything receives that which it is, from
Him. In this sense, any increase from outside is a self imposed
increase, and because God is the self arbiter of meaning and
significance, cannot ascribe to Him any lack, because it cannot fulfill
any need. But if He should choose to desire it, so be it. There is no
way to judge such a thing from outside of God Himself."

My comment was:
Concerning the Desires of God,I will express it this way:
There are stages in 'understanding', 'empathing', 'believing', 'knowing' and 'etc.ing' the Creation of God.
After having fought the major doubts, the minor doubts and after having sought for possible and maybe new doubts of famous doubters ('listening to the devil'), coming to kind of a 'total conviction' of Creation through 'God',
I have found one thing usefull to get more 'enrichment'.
The mathematical Set Theory.
Mathematics can be helpfull and give tools to reach out to fields that resist description through words (terms). That's Quantity.
Especially Set Theory can help to 'suppose', 'sense', 'feel', 'experience', .. (till now not known) qualities (entities?).
These qualities should be filtered, to come from the liveable, reachable, touchable world of human beings.
Otherwise you drift into phantasy or ideology or plain spiritism.
Just ONE consequence:
It leads to the personal installment of the so called 'fear of god', 'fear of the Lord'!

Anomy is on the rise in Europe. This was one of the reasons to set up a Blog on the visit of Pope Benedict to Austria (Mariazell) in September, 2007. You may see there some pictures of his three day visit. This blog is mostly written in German, however the pics, hm, need no translation. I also made a post on Jaegerstaetter, who lost his life during the Nazi Regime in Germany because he was standing up for his faith. His wife Franziska is still alive and also his three daughters.
When Pope Benedict (Papa Benedetto) was in Austria he held a couple of fundamental speeches (sermons). I transcribed some of them, however, I did that in German. Nevertheless, the sermons can be found at the Vatican Homepage.
Maybe at the weekend, I'll put the links up here.
So, God bless you, and maybe you'll take me in into your group.
Hi everyone! In Austria these days winter is putting the first gear in. So, hm, I start here talking about the weather. Reason I came to friendster was the advice in some blogcatalog discussions to join here, so I give it a try.
I got a few blogs on blogspot and cover subjects like conflict, civilisation, riddles, transitions in general and a bunch of other things too. Usually I post in German, but you will find English posts too. I got engaged in Bloggers Unite, blogging against abuse, there will be another action on Dec. 17, when acts of kindness are requested in beforehand and covered in posts, so that the world knows about it.
Recently I also got a bit envolved in collective fiction, that was a lot of fun and we actually got a story going. It was a halloween story about a person named Shelby.
So now I just wrote a few words here to start going.
Please feel encouraged to come by and drop me a note.
