I think we too often try to humanize God or put him in a box. I'm quite sure that God is above human logic and classification, and ultimately above our ability to understand him completely.
Point made. I think most people agree that God is infinite. Thing is, our comprehension is not, so we try to put God in human terms--which often does God a great disservice..

But those of us who commune with God on a day to day basis usually relate to him/her/it/them/whatever on one of those seven levels at a time. Mostly I'm at the third or fourth level, sometimes at the fifth, and at the seventh only a few times and not for long at that.
