Its not unconditional if it has conditions(midwest.social)

Let’s begin again, and I’ll give you every benefit of the doubt, assuming I’m a complete idiot and that you’re making your point in earnest: what point am I missing?

Honestly, I feel like we’re talking past each other, and I’d rather have an earnest conversation.

I said “Maybe secondhand stories are a bad way to understand it.”

The “it” refers to this thing called “god”. Referred to by a story that you read. A second-etc-hand story

Assume that somebody saw something really strange. They tell their friends about it but, because it is strange, they have to make up a name and describe it via metaphor.

Any understanding conveyed must be crippled. Because language is limited that way. Do that a few more times and we’re worse than lost. We have arrived at fanfiction.

This is obvious.

A better way to understand it is to see for yourself.
