For some reason I can't stop thinking of the idea of what God looks like from last class period. Most people envision God human like and St. Augustine contrasts this with a description of God as an entity, which seems to make so much more sense. I think people associate God as human like to seem closer to God, as though it is possible to be like him. Also, I believe this association is made because of the idea of Jesus being the son of God, therefore we think of God as a being rather than an entity. Since I am always in this world of sight and visioning at art school, I think envisioning things without ever know what they will actually looks like is extremely interesting. Imagination is so very important.
