  Why, in this 21st century, are you still describing "God" in anthropomorphic terminology.

  Words reflect our earthy experience--we invent words. That's why we are stuck with anthropomorphic terms to refer to god.

  If there were god there is no true, clear way to talk to each other nor understand truly, clearly what we are describing.

  Some Jesus writings refer to the "All" or the "Good" when speaking of God. How to describe the relationship? I can't say.

  Good OP

  After the Sencond Temple period in Judaism there was an evolution in the religion where God began to be refered to in non-anthropomorphic terms. Shekinah beamce a common word to describe an active God. Whereas Jesus seems to go old school with "Father".
