Default Re: the seven faces of God

Another great thread suffocating due to squabbling!

Arms the number seven is usually interpreted as representative of perfection. Obviously the universe is infinite and any description of divinity would also be infinite, why then does the human mind need to 'see' a face? What is it that drives one to know?

BP I was illustrating the point that the Greek could also be read as reason. Not suggesting the xian god is logic, rather that the precursors of xianity saw reason as the highest principle. Ignore the supernatural external for a moment and think of what is the highest or controlling principle of your mind, what is it?
