Discussion
Consider now the difference between gods and apples. The concept of an apple applies to apples. The concept of a god applies to gods up until the point when the one God is invoked, and then the concept applies neither to gods nor to the one God. The one God escapes conceptualization by being sublimely unlike the other gods, and the other gods, by virtue of their absolute difference from the one God, lose their claim to legitimate divinity: they get demoted to idol status. The concept of an idol is a degenerate concept of a god. Since the degeneration is here a function of the ineffable sublimity of the one God, we are in the curious position of being able to say only what the one God is not like.
