GOD is...

completely omnipotent, infallible, invulnerable, and beyond our comprehension.

I should have said, "Currently whupping Ahnimus's arse."

Whenever I think of God I only see bright light. I don't have any concept of him, really.

if there is a God, he/she/it has been hijacked by the greed and hypocracy of religions, finatics, and people over the past 5000 years. If there was an original message to be conveyed we humans have distorted it so greatly to fit our own needs it seems to be impossible to ever determine what is true and what is not.

I am not an atheist, don't hate religions, or religious people, just not brought up religiously, and as I age and try to "find God" or determine the truth in it, it seems no one has the answers I seek, and the only thing certain is whenever there is a good question there is some religious escape clause to basically cover that religions ass. I always hear free will and faith as cop outs for the bull shit that life seems to be, and all the crap that being human seems to reign upon us. It gets old seeing innocent people die day after day with no reason to it. Why does a 12 year old girl have to die of Cancer while some piece of shit murderer doesn't have to pay the price for drowning her kids in a bathtub? Oh wait she'll pay when it is time to judge....have faith karma, blah blah blah.

Whenever I seem to need god the most, it seems that he is farthest away from me.....oh wait God is all around me I just have to see him....he's in the trees, the air in life...he is everywhere.
It is really bullshit when I get told I am gonig to hell from my best friend because I don't accept Jesus as my savior depspite leading a more sinless life than he did, but because Jesus requires us to accept him or go to hell I'm gonna burn burn burn. Sounds real forgiving to me, I'll forgive everything you do except this. So some dude in Africa who has had no exposure to Jesus will go to hell because he doesn't accept him as his savior?

what the fuck am I even saying, I don't even know. I just know I watched some girl die of cancer on TV this morning who had all the faith and belief in god in the world, where did it get her other than dead? Oh wait she's in heaven, it is a better place and her time here ws nothing comapred to her time she wil spend forever there. All the pain, suffering she did and all that she misses on Earth having died so young is all okay, she's in a better place.

That just doesn't cut it for me, and to be honest I don't know what would

God is hope, is that really what it comes down to? We are all gonna die, we won't know it when it happens we'll be dead, but to make us feel less scared we have God....is this what it is all about?


lets avoid the fucking Ed Vedder God quotes too please, I am being serious here and don't need fucking I am Mine quoted.

do you think that the problem with the concept of God is that Man tries to anthropomorphise him, so what were left with, is the thought of a bearded old man sitting in the clouds? would it be wiser to think of God as a force without any sort of physical feature? or is this already what people think?

I think of God as a force without any sort of physical feature. I just can't picture a breaded man sitting in the clouds as God...I think that idea is a little silly. But I suppose it is wise in a way because if God took human form that's very possible as to what he would look like.

Exactly right. Any person who starts a sentence with "God is............." is fooling themselves. I think by definition "God" is something we can't possibly fathom or understand. But there's nothing wrong with trying.

do you understand yourself? then you must understand God....!!!!

alas, isn't it wonderful how once we master a technique that a new challenge is knocking at our door...

how so? rather, i would have thought that anyone who actually tried to finish that sentence with any definitive answer would be the ones fooling themselves.

and i dont buy that bullshit about God being way beyond our comprehension. i think Man says that cause God cant be verified with science beyond a reasonable doubt. a belief in God relies on faith. which is fine for some. but i feel different thought processes come into play when dealing with God as opposed to anything that involves science. kinda like i guess when one thinks about mathematics as opposed to when one thinks of the creative arts. one involves logic whereas the other involves feeling and emotion.

Your first part is pretty much what I meant.

However, there is a difference between faith and understanding. Is there nothing in life that you know little or nothing about, yet you still have faith its there? Never mind god. Even science is a little bit of understanding mixed in with a whole lot of faith.
