SELF-CREATION, CONTEXT AND GOD
SELF-CREATION AND CONTEXT AND GOD
Arguably nothing is self-creating. All things exist in context. Context preexists all of its things,preexists all of its contents.
Thus, anything, meaning, any content that is contained within
any given context, whatsoever, was brought into being, was created later than its context, with seminal contributions from its context. Therefore nothing, no content can be self-created.
This is proof of God being no "thing;" God having no context.
God exists, self-created, outside of context, beyond all content.
