God is not redefined. He has always been things atheist believe
in, like light, intelligence, compassion, and perfection.

None of which are 'god'.

Yes they are, and you know it.

Why on earth would an atheist know that your references are evidence
of "god" when said atheist does not believe in *any* gods, including
yours?

We know what produces light, it is not supernatural.
We know what produces intelligence, it is not supernatural.
We know what produces compassion, it is not supernatural.
Perfection is a pipe dream of those who believe in the supernatural.


Yes, it is not supernatural, but it is qualities of God, which
atheists believe in.


These "qualities of god" are of your own invention, and they usually
correspond to the qualities of common sense, which require no gods.


How can perfect virtues not be qualities of the infinite?

Nothing makes sense unless it is perfect.
Like what you just said became imperfect
when you enclosed it by meaningles single quotes.

There are no perfect virtues for the simple fact that there is no such
thing as perfection. Calling something perfect makes no sense.

I have a mug of coffee here, but it's not perfect. Bugger, coffee makes
no sense!

I have a computer here, but it's not perfect. Damn, computers make no
sense.

I have a desk here, but it's not perfect. Crap, desks make no sense.

I have a chair here, but it's not perfect. Smeg, chairs make no sense.


Well, all that aside, I'm comfortable in my chair, at my desk, using my
computer to do my work while drinking my coffee.

You can worry about perfect; the rest of us are happy to deal with this
universe.

Define "perfect virtue".

Show how light, intelligence, and compassion satisfy that definition.

Define "infinite" in terms that require that light, intelligence, and
compassion are qualities of it.
