What is/are your God(s)?

[c172]

Interesting thread, but I don't think of anything as even resembling a god. I doo like soccer. I watched the Canada vs. SWitzerland match n the WWC yesterday, followed by Sporting Kansas City and Real Salt Lake, but that doubleheader was plenty for me yesterday. I spent the balance of the evening doing housework, listening to Computer Magic on Spotify and YouTube, and planning a cruise to Juneau and Victoria next year.

I need some variety, even if it has been hard to admit at times.

The only thing in my life that I consider a God is my penis. I think everyone should worship it.

We've all seen it.  At best a lesser deity.

I’m new to this forum and primarily a lurker/voyeur. I’m not proficient at communicating in writing so this may not exactly get my point/idea across.

Quick background, 58 years old, conservative, atheist, not tied to any particular political position (politics on a case by case basis). Escaped the religious programming at age 13.  Employment has been in healthcare and healthcare fraud prevention. Retired at age 54.

Back to the question, what is/are your God(s)? I don’t really want to hear from the deists, I know all I care to about that delusion.

Here is why I ask. Over the years I have had many motivating factors and influences in my life including money (but not greed), security, mind altering chemicals (product of the 60’s and 70’s), sex, …, and in certain aspects they were my Gods, they motivated me and affected my behavior. I could name more but I want to get this going.

I’d like to hear from the non deists/non theists. What are the motivating/driving forces in your existence? What factors direct the majority of your behavior or directs your life? Is it money, security, pleasure, drugs, sex, technology, society, altruism…..? For some of you are you your own God (what’s best is what’s best for you mind set)?

Looking forward to responses and thought provoking lurking

its a shame your atheist because you can get greater things and become someone greater as a christian whats your thoughts on that?

I think you may be mentally ill and should seek professional help.

I wonder what he thinks counts as greater things? Or is he suggesting, in that well-known xtian humility, that xtians are better people than everyone else?

[Whateverist]

Seems like a puree of both.

A superiority smoothie?

A delusion of grandeur, better than everyone else.
