Jocular ones are welcome too (and no doubt inevitable), but I’m looking more for “sensible” ones. Some examples:

  • Unmoved Mover
  • Great Universal Mind
  • Undifferentiated Aesthetic Continuum
  • Ground Of Being

“The Biggest Con of All Time”

It’s not abstract at all, but my favorite is the Living God. It’s an old one (Elohim khayyim), but I strongly empathize with the sentiment: if there is a God, God must be alive. She must be able to do things–God must have volition. He isn’t just a product of natural order (e.g., the Sun). He might be a prick sometimes, but His actions are better than chance. If your god is a coin toss, your god may as well be a coin toss. Whichever God demonstrates Her existence is the real One. Everything else is make-believe at best, a long con at worst.

Yes, I don’t mind “Living God” as long as it remains abstract and not attached to whatever religious organisation.

Not what I was looking for, but I did chuckle. Would probably look good on a t-shirt.
