He was not suggesting that 'God-talk,' as it came to be short-handedly referred to, was some sort of symptom of a pathological state Noun 1. pathological state - a physical condition that is caused by disease physical condition, physiological condition, physiological state - the condition or state of the body or bodily functions , but rather to the general absurdity of an attempt to talk sense about so great a mystery."
