God is great
July 28, 2017 at 5:40 pm
God is a word usually used to describe a "super-natural enhancement" from something we already know. For example the God of the hunt; or the God of nature, or the God of thunder.
To many; God is nothing more but a comical character that excels in certain field; another man/woman that has supernatural powers.
But what about God, as in "all knowing"?
That is a God that never gave birth, or was born. A "something else". He is not a man with a super abilities; but he made the abilities themselves.
Wrote it down. Created darkness and light. Pain and salvation.
He made the sickness, but made the cure too. God in this definition, is a scary being, but a beautiful one too.
It's all about the scale he made: increase gravity, and you crush the human next door.
He is not a "another one". He is the "One God". "He" is only used to refer to him; God created gender itself.
Something to think about..He is great.

God is soooooooo great there is no evidence, religious mythology is not evidence, of his existence.

I dislike ever having to use the 'capital G' god in any context, and avoid it as often as possible. Find it irksome to see others using it in that way, as if such a thing deserves to be a fucking proper noun.
Outside of very obvious fiction, the concept is pointless at best, and the worst blight on humanity on the other end of the spectrum.
Time and again, I've come up with god concepts that are far beyond any conceived of by actual theists. If their sky daddies can't measure up to mine (because they claim that a god is typically 'that which no greater can be conceived') then such gods are not great, let alone good, and certainly not worthy of worship or veneration.
So let's limit god to putting it in front of 'zilla' and leave it at that.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.

If my afflictions are ever cured, it willl be science, not god, that deserves the credit. As it is, 20 years of sincerely believing in god didn't help at all.

The Force is great, too.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
