God lives within us faith.

[Simon Moon]

Currently I am at a hospital. About 3 weeks ago, I had a discussion with one of the workers who turned out to believe in God without religion like me. She said she believes God lives inside us all. I know what she meant and she made the point not to take it too literally.

I remember the scene from the Lion King where Rafeeki tells Simba that his father lives within him.

I feel this is the case with God. God is like the sword of the soul, the spiritual guide, but our access to him is imperfect.

If we are connected to God, how would I explain atheism? I think it might be like the case where atheists are being held by God, God lives within them, and they are connected to this reality, but they just fail to recognize the phenomenon. They take all the mystical presence as a natural phenomenon.

But the believers witnesses something incredible instead. He witnesses the real existing of the universal spirit (god) and it's living reality within us. The howness of this witnessing is hard to explain, but the witness is not only the effect but the link to the source and consequently the existence of the source. It's witnessing is not just a concept in the mind but be consumed into an existence where one is existence but non-existence, manifesting the universal existence. This is by being consumed into the existence of the divine as if witnessing yourself, you witness that being, because you exist through it and you are of that existence.

It lives inside of us to the extent we can witness each passing moment is caused by it's very existent. It's not our existence that keeps existing, it's his.

But most of all, it's a direct witnessing. It's process where there is no argument or effect that needs to be witnessed aside from the divine existing.

I wonder how many Theists believe God lives within us like I and her do?

Do you actually care whether your beliefs are true or not? If you do, how would you go about determining if all of the above assertions of yours are actually true, or self-delusion (or wishful thinking)?

From an Atheistic perspective, is this simply dismissed or do you think it's plausible your perspective is not in tune with the divine because of other factors?

What a flawed question this is!

I dismiss your baseless assertions because you have not provided evidence, reasoned argument and valid/sound logic to support them. Why should any of us accept any of your un-evidenced, illogical assertions?

Unless you can provide anything other than your wishful thinking that this alleged 'divine' exists in reality, it is not at all plausible that we are not 'in tune' with it.

I don't think you know what the word 'plausible' means.


As a side note, why are you calling yourself a 'Deist'? Your beliefs are in no way aligned with Deism.
