Why do people try to project human logic or limits onto God?

Asked by bunnyslippers (852points) August 16th, 2013

I realize this is probably going to degrade very quickly, which is why I put it in social but the question is as stands. Why do we as humans feel the need to put limits and human logic onto a being who created the universe, even if he did it with a big bang or whatever.

I’m not asking anyone to change their beliefs here, if you don’t believe in him that’s fine, but even you can realize that if he was real he would be beyond our understanding. It’s arrogant to think we could understand a being who can’t even show us his face because of what it would do to us. Exodus 33:20

So I guess we will see how quickly this just becomes a disaster, I’m really interested in peoples serious answers but I recognize the topic isn’t one that lends itself to calm cool headed debate.
