My comment on this Daily Truth posting today. The post is with regards to a scathing review on Professor Richard Dawkin's new bookm which I shall be purchasing shortly, entitled "The God Delusion"
Professor Eagleton's claim is simply another attempt at 'moving the goalposts' to counter credible argument for the non existence of God. The notion of God as Professor Eagleton has suggested is not the notion of God as is believed by earthly religions. The Bible states that God does exist, He is an entity, He created humans in His own image and; depending on your particular arm of Christianity, actually came and lived as a man on the earth.
It is this notion that Professor Dawkins is countering in his book, because this is what is believed by theists. As human understanding of ourselves has grown throughout time, so has the argument against a God grown in credibility. Professor Eagleton has simply chosen to redefine the notion of God in the face of this, in order to suit his needs. However his definition of God is not the one that has formed the basis of Abrahamic religion for the past few millennia.
