What the Eff Is a 'God-Form'?
Sorry, come again: I didn't quite catch that last.
“God-form”?
Sorry, my Cowan's a little rusty. “God-form”?
Do you mean an image: a statue, or something, that bears a god's presence? No? Do you mean a god?
Not quite? How is a “god-form” different from a god, then? Do you mean a hypostasis?
But it's something that you assume, right?
You assume it, but it's not a god. If it's not a god, how is it different from a god? If it's a god, why don't you just say “god”?
Well, what you're describing sure sounds like a god to me. Or at least a god's shadow: something cast over you when you're overshadowed.
Is that right?
Oh, oh, now I get it: it's like “orientate.” It's what you say when you mean “orient” but want to sound Impressive.
No?
OK, OK, never mind. Forget I even asked.
(Shakes head, mutters.)
“God-form.” Ye gods.
Now what were you saying, before that?
