Theology

Sex has been used as a metaphor in the Guru Granth Sahib to describe the relationship between God and His servants.

God in Sikhism is said to be perfect while being described as being attributeless, motionless and absolutely quiescent before creation, but attributed thereafter. But can God's perfection be sustained on such a theistic model?

Recognising their Nirgun-Sargun concept of God to be a contradiction, some Sikh apologists have turned to Quantum Mechanics, particularly the famous double-slit experiment, to defend this stance. But in doing so, they end up digging themselves deeper into trouble!

We argue here that the concept of God being both Nirgun and Sargun in Sikh theology is contradictory, illogical and irrational, and demanding that one believe in the impossible is mental oppression.
