.Well several things:Why would the idea of God existing apart from and not subject to the limitations of the material world leave you cold?
The painter can’t be the painting so to speak.
1) It seems counter to the concept of God becoming Man in the Incarnation. If God is so apart from us as human beings, why would He care? Why would He take the form of a man and allow Himself to be crucified?
2) It seems counter to the nature of the Holy Ghost to be the 'animating spirit of life' in Creation in all multiverses where there is life. If God is 100% transcendent, then what the hell is the Holy Ghost supposed to be? A Holy Fart in the Cosmic wind?
3) The Father, the Being of the Trinity who exists completely outside the flow of time I think is totally transcendent, but I think the Logos is the interaction between the space/time dimension and the Father, and the Holy Ghost the emanation of animus/life/love between the Father and His Son and Creation. The idea of the entire Godhead being transcendent is completely counter to this concept.
If I remember correctly from an old book I read about Eastern Orthodoxy, they have a school of thought that borrowed from the Greek Emanationists, so I dont think my cosmology here is heretical though it seems somewhat counter to the Cosmology of the Roman Catholic Church.

hope springs eternal, for who are able to see the light of day - the latter is what you need to work on bowie. written forgeries are like beacons of light as well leading to an original intent and a proper conclusion.
