I was once asked what my favorite topic in philosophy is. It took me a second to think through the various topics, but as soon as I thought of it, I knew it: God. This was a surprising answer to the person who asked the question, because God is always thought of as a strictly religious entity. But philosophy can also give us a lot of information about God, and no subject is more beautiful. We call this natural theology because we are finding out what we can about God using only our natural resources. It is very difficult and very abstract because when we think about God we are thinking about Someone who we cannot fully grasp. Augustine once said, “If you understand it, it is not God.” In other words, if you have some accurate, neat little picture in your mind of God, then that picture is wrong.
