What does it mean to say Western conceptions of God tend to be anthropomorphic?
What will be an ideal response?
To say that God is anthropomorphic is to say that we describe God in terms of our own human attributes. In the Judeo-Christian and Islamic traditions, God is usually distinctly male; some people conceive God is a kindly old man with a long white beard; in the Bible, God is sometimes said to be a "jealous God."
