God-like was defined in the article, he was responding to
the question "Like God?" in relation to Dyson's SUPERNATURAL
"superpowerful intelligent and moral energy"!
Now to be Like God they would need to be omnipotent, omniscient,
eternal..

Humans are extraterrestials, having been into space and to the moon.
Clearly they are NOT God-like, they just seem that way in the
imaginations of some people.

So you already knew they don't qualify.
Please try and demonstrate a modicum of intelligence,
otherwise you just make the atheist denial of Dawkin's concession
look weak and stupid, which is what it is!

I'm an agnostic.
Your ad hom attacks merely demonstrate the incapacity of
atheists to respond rationally and with intellectual honesty
to Dawkin's assertion that "these Gods came into being",
thus conceeding the theist position.

The statement is categorical, not a speculation on possibility.
"Came into being" is past tense, that rules out possibility
and is discussing ACTUALITY. Are you as ignorant of the clear and plain
meaning of language as you are of what the charactersistics of God are?
Perhaps that is the problem with atheists, they are lacking in
understanding and have a cookie cutter, infantile, straw man conception
of what it is that theists believe in!
You are being stupid, extraterrestials are not God-like "superpowerful
intelligent and moral energy" In fact the entire concept is ludicrous,
and merely demonstrates that atheists have a feeble minded, irrational
and ignorant conception of what the God theists believe in, is.
> not a single God.
Stop trying to put words in Dawkin's mouth just because WHAT he ACTUALLY
said does not suit you.
Discussing the PROPERTIES of Dysons imaginary characters, he was asked
if bolts of "superpowerful intelligent and moral energy" sounded "LIKE
GOD" and he replied CERTAINLY.
Now all you terrified atheists are scurrying about trying to pretend
he's a senile imbecile who can't form a clear rational thought, and is
incapable of clear speech.
If the description was not Like God, and Dawkins had not admitted that
the EXISTENCE of God like beings was more than possible.. PLAUSIBLE
and that in fact "these Gods CAME INTO BEING" you might have something
to say worth listening to.
But as that is clearly NOT the case you just look desperate and foolish.
Carry on, atheists have been doing that for millennia, and are
apparently incapable of learning from their ongoing failure! B^p

"At the dawn of the 20th Century approximately one half of the world's
population identified itself as either Muslim, Catholic, Protestant,
Hindu or Buddhist, and 100 years of secularism, and technological
advancement, and scientific progress later and that number is now
two thirds.
So, for those of you who enjoy beginning coffee shop
conversations with "The Death of God" .. it's time to change
the subject! It's time to talk about something else , because
it's not happening at all.
People are becoming more religious, not less religious,
and religion itself is also evolving"
