    If one uses the notion of God being infinite whereas all else is
    finite, then the second equation ought to read: World-God=-God. Of
    course, I would rather write is God _+ anything =God. :0 :)

    Michael,

    Yes, these "equations" do symbolize the concept of the God-World
    relationship consistent with creatio ex nihilo. I have no desire to draw you
    away from them, but for myself I must explore other theological approaches.
