God and the Imagination
#1
God and the Imagination
I had a chat with some Christians about prayer. I told them that prayer makes me wonder if I am creating God and the whole dialogue in my imagination. I asked them if they ever thought that maybe they are creating God in their imaginations.

They really don't believe they are doing that!

It's difficult to distinguish between one's imagination and the objectivity of a deity.

What do you think?
God is a personification of ourselves, what we wish to be, and that which we do not understand.
