You can say precisely fuck-all about the characteristics of God, James. You're not supposed to, except in ridiculous proselytising religions, the kind that really have their heads thrust up their arses. It's all about faith. The twisty passages of metaphysics are just to try to rope in the brainier unbelievers by trying to baffle them with bullshit.
God is the infinite amount of nonsense that may be written about nothing.

That is, it makes no rational sense to talk about 'reality' being comprised of fundamental units of finite elements.
If it accords with experimental experience, there's more basis for saying so than declaring that reality is an undifferentiated unity, which is achieved by talking out of your hat.
Again, please don't employ the truth of experience to proclaim the truth of reality.
Please do not employ nonsense to say nothing about nothing.

I have much more to baffle you with.

Amusing mantra. You really should write your own 'bible', full of passages for the masses to parrot when confronted with lunatics such as myself.

I think of it more as a koan, but without the cheesy game-playing of the wise sage asking mystery questions of the young acolyte.
I have an amusing story about a Buddhist monk who used to take walks on the beach each morning to meditate. One day he passed a little dog walking in the opposite direction. As they passed one another, the little canine squatted down and took a dump right there in front of the monk. The business having been transacted, both dog and monk proceeded to complete their morning perambulations. Each day for the next week, the same thing happened, the dog stopping to take a shit just as he and the monk were passing. The monk contemplated this deeply and finally came up with the answer:
"AH!", he concluded. "This must be the sand of one hound crapping!"

Perhaps the dog was trying to impress the monk by levitating, but couldn't differentiate between floating and floaters.
About me: I have prehensile eyebrows. I speak 9 languages fluently, one of which other people can also speak. When backed into a corner, I fit perfectly - having a right-angled arse.
