anallogy
Religious language is anallogous to what God is like
Anallogy of attribution
'the urine is good, the bull is good'
this limits what can be said about God
Anallogy of proportion
God is good like human good but upscaled
Anallogy of imitation
reliant on the idea that things about God can be inferred from his creation

symbols and signs
signs point to something
symbols partake in that to which they point

Models
Ramsey

God cannot be described in everyday terms
only valid things that can be said about God is what he is not

Verification prevents meaningless statements being made and reduces knowledge to objective truths
the idea that knowledge should be verifiable is not itself verifiable
Hick suggests god uverifiable, eschatalogically
Religious experience is evidence empirical evidence of Gods existence
A statement can be meaningful according to Swinburne, without being verifiable. he gives the example of toys in a toy box coming out at night
