Well, if you want to get technical:

Heat does not exist. Heat is merely a sensation we feel as a result of the energy of molecules vibrating at a higher frequency. In fact, we don't feel 'heat', but actually a out-of-normal-range amount of molecule vibration (in fact, our perception of 'cold' is exactly the same as 'heat', but on the other end of the scale).

Light does not exist. What we sense as light is a perception of a very limited wavelength range of radiation in the form of streams of packetized photons. Many wavelengths are completely undetectable by our senses.

So, heat and light don't exist, but are merely words that represent our need to reduce a complex concept into a singular but overly simplified answer.

Might it not be the same with God?
