The mind of the Spirit is God's mind
The mind of the father is God's mind
And the mind of the Son is God's mind.
Because they are distinct persons God the father could search the mind of the Spirit and vice versa because the Spirit could reveal the mind of the Father and same with Jesus the Son.
I literally laughed out loud at this gibberish.

I understand. Perhaps the confusion comes from how I word my responses.

Having engaged with different concepts of "God", I'm not seen any evidence that would make me lean towards any particular position as opposed to another.

For example, I don't believe in the concept of a single creator God, like in Christianity and Islam, any more than I believe in a polytheistic pantheon, or a pantheistic God, or any other concept of God.

When the Christian asks me "Do you believe in God?", I automatically know they're referring to the concept of a single creator deity, like Yahweh, or Allah, for which I have no special inclination towards.

Perhaps saying "I don't believe in your God", or "your concept of God" would be a more accurate way to word my answer. Because the word "God" tends to mean different things for different people.

My lack of belief doesn't come from knowing only one concept of God and rejecting it. It comes from knowing several concepts of God, and not believing in one above the rest, simply because I've not encountered any evidence that proves one above the others.
When you say you lack belief in God. What do you mean? I’m not talking about your unbelief in other people’s gods but what you mean by god.

What is God and why does it require belief?

Why tell anyone you don’t “believe in” their concept of god. If it’s just a concept, why treat it differently from other fictional things.

I wouldn’t say I don’t believe in someone’s god because it doesn’t make sense. If a child tells you about his imaginary friend you don’t consider the character to be a subject of belief or non belief. You just consider it rightly to be nonsense. Why is it different when it’s an adult and the adult calls the imaginary being “God”?

If it’s a god they got from their religion, then it’s just a mythological character. I mean do you have belief or non belief in Jupiter Pluvius or do you consider it to be fiction?

I'm not a fan of labels. As far as a belief in God goes, I lack one. By that definition, I'm considered an atheist.
When it comes to having or lacking a belief in God, I understand the theists perspective when they criticize atheists.
You say you lack a belief in God but this implies that there is an extant entity called God and you just happen to lack belief in it.
The Christian you replied has a belief in God and their perspective is that their God is real and they acknowledge this “fact” by belief or faith. That’s why they say things like “atheists reject god”’or “atheists deny god” and it does seem to be true. To the Christian, it seems you are denying the existence of El or YHVH or whatever idea(s) in the Bible they consider to be their deity.

It’s either that or atheists themselves make up a deity and then claim they don’t believe in it.

When you say you lack belief in God. What do you mean?
What is God and why does it require belief?

Are you an ape or not?
Simple yes or no
Humans are classified as mammals because humans have the same distinctive features (listed above) found in all members of this large group.

Humans are also classified within:

the subgroup of mammals called primates;
and the subgroup of primates called apes and in particular the 'Great Apes'
Humans, however, also possess many unique characteristics and are therefore classified within a unique subgroup of the Great Apes called the hominins.

Aemmyjah:
If there is no God, why do we have morals in the first place?
For example, we condemn murder. Why is it condemned.? Why condemn injustices but appreciate love. Before you answer these questions, those things we condemn are in comparison to what
Even if morals come from a god what makes you think they came from one of the psychotic murderous gods in Hebrew mythology?
The god in genesis is busy murdering people or promising other people’s homes to his favorite despicable people( Abram,Sarai, lot, Jacob etc)

The god in exodus is nothing more than a kleptomaniacal warlord.

Supersport has two English pundits and one African pundit in a Match involving the last sub-sharan team at the world cup.
Nonsense!
There is no such thing on as “sub saharan”. It’s just a random classification Eurocentric types created to divide the continent and separate the rest of the continent from ancient Egypt.

Look at the list of countries that have the saharan within their territories and wonder why some of them are called “sub saharan”.

Yes, they needed one goal. But not when Switzerland were already leading. A victory for Switzerland gave them six points, no matter how much margin Cameroon won by, it wouldn't have mattered at that point, except Serbia had equalised. Besides the game was almost over then
They had 8 minutes left to get another goal while Serbia could have scored to tie the other game 3-3. That’s what they should have been playing for not one measly goal. Do they get a prize for beating Brazil?

Well said.

I think people especially African people love stories more than reasoning. It's easier to give in to tales than to expend the necessary brain power, energy and time to reason.
You said your spouse is a Christian. How do you counter the stupid stories being told to your Children that warps their critical thinking skills?

E.g. Rainbows

A child in a more enlightened clime with properly educated parents may tell you about light refraction and dispersion while your child may tell you about the supernatural Hebrew monkey that drowned the world and created the rainbow to remind itself not to do it again.

Bible Proofs:

*In 1990 Frank Yurco, an Egyptologist at the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago used hieroglyphic clues from a monolith known as the Merneptah Stele to identify figures in a Luxor wall relief as ancient Israelites. The stele itself, dated to 1207 B.C. celebrates a military victory by the Pharaoh Merneptah. “Israel is laid waste” it reads. This lets us know the Israelites were a separate people more than 3,000 years ago.
I.si.ri.ar = Israel? undecided
Something to ponder:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias

Petrie called upon Wilhelm Spiegelberg, a German philologist in his archaeological team, to translate the inscription. Spiegelberg was puzzled by one symbol towards the end, that of a people or tribe whom Merneptah (also written Merenptah) had victoriously smitten – I.si.ri.ar? Petrie quickly suggested that it read "Israel!" Spiegelberg agreed that this translation must be correct.[1] "Won't the reverends be pleased?" remarked Petrie. At dinner that evening, Petrie who realized the importance of the find said: "This stele will be better known in the world than anything else I have found." The news of its discovery made headlines when it reached the English papers.[1]
