Thor does not need my definition to exist. He is the god of gods, the king of kings,
your God is nothing but a manifestation of Him.
It should be obvious, by now.
But that should not be a problem for you. As you said, God manifested differently to all believers. So, why do you care of the...
My logic is not impressive at all. People sometimes erroneously think I am somewhat smart, but what I am doing here is the intellectual equivalent of stealing lolly-pops from little children.
I would expect a ten years old with average intelligence to have the same skills, I present here. And...
You cannot. Not without begging the question.
Because anything you know about your God, is a manifestation of Thor. He decided to manifest Himself as the God of the Bible. And not the other way around, as you probably believe. In fact, it can be proven that your God is false, because of that...
So, no need to challenge the default position.
Logically absurd. How can a being not care if you believe in Him, or being obedient to Him, while requiring us to do what He asks us to do?
As usual, another display of inherent Christian irrationality.

LOL. why not?
And by the way, increasing the font size of writings , does not made them truer. And can be easily defeated as a manifestation of Thor to your people.
Your logical fallacy is so big that it is almost embarrassing. You are arbitrarily setting the qualities of a God, so that your...
You are back in your irrational mode.
I asked a very simple question. If God can choose to impersonate other gods, depending on culture and such, as you claimed, what makes you think that the God you believe in is not the impersonation of another God?
What makes you think you are not...

What makes you think you are not worshiping Thor, after all?

So, it is entirely possible that Thor is the real God, and Jeowah is just how He chose to reveal Himself to the Jewish people.
Correct?
If not, why not?

With all due respect, who cares about the Jewish people beliefs? Beliefs do not determine truths about ontologies.You are not addressing my question.
What prevents a pagan to claim that it was instead Thor, who revealed Himself to the Jews as Jeowah? Or whatever you call your God.

That does not answer my question. Isn't that possible that it was Thor, instead, who manifested Himself as the God go the OT, to those people in the Middle East?
If not, why not?

So, I could equally say that it is instead Thor who chose to reveal Himself as the God of the OT.
Would you accept that as a viable possibility?

OK, fine. So, do you think that the God of the Old Testament and the Gods of the Vikings are the same God? Is there a chance that the Gods of the vikings (more than one), are also the same Gods of the Old Testament? Do you also leave the possibility open that the Jewish God is actually a...
Can be, but that does not defeat the fact that the vast majority pray and worship a God that does not exist. If I pray to Thor, and you pray to Jesus, then it follows that at least one of us is worshipping something that does not exist. Ergo, one of us is deluded. Necessarily so.
Well, this is just what logic tells us.
The problem, of course, is that people believe, and believed, in mutually contradicting Gods. If 10 persons believe in 10 different Gods, then it is the case that 90% of them, at least, are deluded. For the simple reason that it cannot be the case that...
It seems to me that you are not advertising the existence of God, but the beneficial effects that belief can have, once we have chosen one or more gods that fit our wishes.
I don't object to that. In fact, I think that our innate predisposition to believe in gods, so that we can positively...
My guess is that any number, can be associated with something Biblical. You just need sufficient imagination. Probably I could find prophecies, and amazing messages or evidence from God, in my Italian Cooking Books of Recipes, too, by using the same form of rationalizations.
For instance...
