When I think of God, when I think of him as existent, and when I believe him to be existent, my idea of him neither encreases nor diminishes.

 The proposition, God is omnipotent, contains two conceptions, which have a certain object or content; the word is, is no additional predicate--it merely indicates the relation of the predicate to the subject. This was a very different experience compared to other diets; this was a very positive thing. When I think of God, when I think of him as existent, and when I believe him to be existent, my idea of him neither encreases nor diminishes. He maintained, for example, that God (who was probably nothing more, in his view, than the world) is neither finite nor infinite, neither in motion nor in rest, neither similar nor dissimilar to any other thing. Now we must admit that the doctrine of the existence of God belongs to doctrinal belief. SECTION IV. Of the Impossibility of an Ontological Proof of the Existence of God.
