@road2horizon, great question!

First, you should know I used the dictionary definition, so take it up with Merriam-Webster. ;-)

On another note, Wittgenstein referred to philosophy as a language game. So I guess you're free to insert whatever definition you want, but philosophy is defended by the employment reason. So there mut be some explanation for why your definition of any word is preferential to another.

I didn't start with my axiom because I first laid a little philosophical groundwork (i.e. defining a key word intrinsic to the axiom): "Wherever God is, or has been, that is where is He can be studied." I could have done it another way, but I didn't. Thanks for reading.
