Gold does not exist until you are interested in finding it.
It doesn't show to you were it is.
It is up to you to put the effort to find it.
God work in the same way.
There is no point in telling you that God exist if you are not
interested in him.
It is only when there is some interest in God that the sense of the word
take a different meaning.
So god is a mental construct.
Thank you for admitting it.
Doesn't exist until your mind conjures it up. You can then use language to convey that concept that your mind made up and try to implant that concept in another mind... that other mind's concept of god will be slightly different from yours, but it doesn't matter.
Each mind should have its own god concept.
Doesn't mean it exists out of human minds...
You are very fast to jump at conclusions.
Did i ever said that God is in the mind?
The mind is the outer side of the consciousness and with external understanding of the reality you can't possibly understand the inner
side of reality or the super conscious.
Here the onion example come useful again.
The external layer is the mind and the inner layer is the super conscious mind and it is here that you can understand whether God exist or not
and it is through spirituality that you can penetrate the inner layers of you super conscious mind.
