This is concerning something you posted in another thread that I consider extremely interesting.
This depends, of course, if you feel you have done the reading of Spinoza to talk with me about the subject. Feel free to recommend me some books on this also.
But, to put it frankly (I'm already having trouble wrapping my mind around the necessary questions):
Do you think Spinoza's God has a conciousness? Or is aware of itself?
Since it does not "does not understand, or will, or perceive, or feel", and is just altogether existence and being, does this qualify it as a God in the language we use? Some omnipotent being capable of anything.
