Welcome Back Qatar
I've been hearing the country Qatar's name being pronounced so many various ways in all the war coverage -- from "gutter", "cutter" and "gatter" to "guitar" (or maybe it was "gitter")(!) -- I started to wonder just how the heck it's supposedly properly pronounced (in American English)...
According to Merriam-Webster and their online audio pronunciation, it apparently is supposed to sound like "kotter". I haven't heard that one yet.

To say that divinity informs the world and all things is condemned as pantheism.
But pantheism is a misleading word. It suggests that a personal god is
supposed to inhabit the world, but that is not the idea at all. The idea is
trans-theological. It is of an undefinable, inconceivable mystery, thought of
as a power, that is the source and end and supporting ground of all life and being.
