I was about to respond with something very similar. I grew up LDS, and while the religion is filled with contradictions, their conception of God by itself seems much more tenable than generic Christian belief. It is official doctrine that God (or “Heavenly Father”) is a physical being, bound by the laws of the universe. My father-in-law, a professor at an LDS university, believes that God is neither omnipotent nor omniscient. Few Mormons would go that far, but it is still consistent with doctrine.
