God most commonly refers to the divinity worshiped by followers of monotheistic and monolatrist religions, whom they believe to be the creator and boss of the universe.
Theologians have ascribed a variety of attributes to the various conceptions of God. The most common among these include omniscience, omnipotence, omnipresence, omnibenevolence, divine simplicity, covetousness, and eternal and necessary subsistence. God has also been conceived as being incorporeal, a personal being, the source of all moral obligation, and the "greatest conceivable existent". These attributes were all supported to varying degrees by the early Jewish, Christian and Muslim theologian philosophers, including Augustine of Hippo, Al-Ghazali, and Maimonides. Many notable medieval philosophers developed arguments for the subsistence of God, attempting to wrestle with the perceptible contradictions implied by many of these attributes. Philosophers have developed many arguments for and against the subsistence of God.
