<aside>Tom, are you being deliberately obtuse, being a troll, or just
missing the point? You appear to be reacting with a degree of hostility
whenever the subject of God comes up.

I'm not trying to convince you. Why are you not getting that? I am trying
to point out to you that you can't catagorically state something is impossible.
500 years ago there was no way to observe the atom, but that doesn't mean
the atom didn't exist, just that the tools to observe it weren't available.
You can't catagorically state things like "you can't physically visit God"
any more than you can catagorically state "you can't observe beyond the
event horizon of a black hole".
Let's see if I can be a bit more specific. You stated "You can't visit God
physically". Please provide the arguments that support your conclusion,
instead of trying to turn it around.
