God
This article is about the term "God" in the context of monotheism and henotheism. See Deitygod (male deity) or goddess for details on polytheistic usages. For other uses, see God (disambiguation)God (IPA English pronunciation: gɑd) most commonly refers to the deity worshipped by followers of monotheistic and monolatrist religions, whom they believe to be the creator and ruler of the universe.Theologians have ascribed a variety of attributes to the various conceptions of God. The most common among these include omniscienceomnipotenceomnipresence, perfect goodness, divine simplicity, and eternal and necessary existence. God has also been conceived as being incorporeal, a personal being, the source of all moral obligation, and the "greatest conceivable existent". These attributes were all supported to varying degrees by the early JewishChristian and Muslim theologian philosophers, including Augustine of HippoAl-Ghazali, and Maimonides. Many notable medieval philosophers developed arguments for the existence of God, attempting to wrestle with the apparent contradictions implied by many of these attributes. Philosophers have developed many arguments for and against the existence of God.
