Traditionally, God is described as being all-loving, all-knowing, and all-powerful. I sometimes wonder why God having or not having these attributes seems important to people when it comes to discussing Divinity.

I am not asking whether such a Divine entity does or doesn’t exist, certainly that topic has been discussed ad nauseam on fluther. I am asking why those particular attributes seem center stage.

As usual, I could say more, but I am interested in hearing your thoughts without much more influence from me. In case you must know, I am a non-traditional monotheist.
