What is Your Approach?
RE: What is Your Approach?
(August 10, 2013 at 5:27 am)Rayaan Wrote: "God is nature" is technically correct, yes, but it is incomplete and misleading because it ignores the personal attributes of His existence.

What I love about god is that he is so malleable that he can be formed into anything any human being wishes him to be.

I remember when I was younger, still religious, and I read Anne Rice's Memnoch the Devil. Her version of god in that book was quite different from the typical Christian version, but it made a certain kind of sense that god could very well be the kind of higher being that created life not knowing what he was doing. As mankind learned, so did god. In an ironic sort of way, it reflects the more logical notion that mankind created god as an explanation for his existence.
