<The two ideas are compatible, but belief in omnipresence doesn't require pantheism.>

Agreed, I wouldn't expect anyone to believe anything but what they want... I"m just giving my 2c worth here... looking at the two statements it's clear to me... but sure, opinions are just opinions. BTW, there is plenty of 'mystery' talked about in Christian dogma in understanding the term 'god' to look at it either way IMO. In fact I believe there is verbage in the "Catechism" to the effect that the human [mind?] can't really comprehend the truth of god. Given that, we certainly can't say that the term "god is everywhere" to be absolute truth either, according to the church. There are paragraphs upon paragraphs describing how each proceeding one isn't quite right. Beyond words obviously.
