If there really is an all-powerful Sky-God why couldn’t he create the world in six days?

I’m a Christian. If I wasn’t I think I would be an open-minded skeptic that is I would say, “I don’t see any evidence for a God, and I won’t believe in him until I do, but I can’t disprove his existence either.”

But if God is all powerful and omnipotent then there’s no reason he couldn’t do it. Is there?

There’s too many religions for me to even concieve the idea that there’s a God.
Especially when it comes to more recent religions such as Christianity and Islam.
Everyone seems to forget the Pagan Gods from the Greeks and Romans that existed before Christianity, there’s also the Celtic & Norse Gods.
Same with Buddhism, The Sun God, The Great Spirit. (And alot more…People seem to create religions when they feel like it)

Which one’s right is my question. It seems that religion forms on political matters, not on the search for truth. I mean, the Crusades for example, were they really about religion and for God’s will? Or was it just in the pope’s best intrest?

I don’t fully believe in evolution either. So i’m not sure where I stand.

if you belive in the big bang and you dont believe that god created us then your pretty dumb though because if our universe was formed in like seconds there is no way life could have happened in the big bang god had to create people i think

I think the only true creation is the combined version of our own thoughts, that the big bang was the startsignal of god and that he made earth and the rest of planets. I think the real truth is that the universe is infinite, has always been and always will be. Its the matter that changes from time to time…

I hope when we finally meet extra terrestrial life that they know the answer :tongue:

Though IMO, i think were just pawns on a chess board. Were just a game to a bigger species.
Basically were in a ‘sims’ game. We just think were more than that :razz:

People like to prove stuff. But worse than religious «proving», to me, is scientifical «proving», since it’s at the very foundation of science that facts can only refute a theory, never prove, in such a way that we can never be sure that this time we got it right, and in such a way that the real explanation to everything might indeed be untestable, or even self-contradictory: any religion is, in a nutshell, a theory that can’t be tested.

To the topic starter: the fact that I can or cannot conceive certain things doesn’t convince me of anything, as one of the few things I am convinced is of my limited ability to conceive things. I’m human, all too human indeed, I’m limited. The fact that I cannot imagine alternatives or conceive different schemes does not convince me that they’re impossible. It only reassures me of my humanity: I cannot match your dare, therefore I’m limited, therefore I’m human. That’s all. :smile:

has anyone thought how god was made

God is just a name.

A name to what?
that’s the question you should ask.

If you don’t believe anything exists beyond this reality (the one you perceive with your 5 senses), than obviously, you don’t believe in any type of god. Your god is material.

I don’t think the bible and/or later versions are wrong. They were simply taken out of context. Any individual who studied those areas will tell you that the book of genesis isn’t really supposed to be about the creation of the universe. I don’t believe in the god that most people do, I find that concept absurd.
That is a human god, one that talks like you and me and sits on a cloud taking notes about the way we behave. He is angry with us when we are not following his specific set of rules (which vary from religion to religion) but he is fine with wars arising over the conflicts. Yes, that is indeed a very rational concept of “god”. Something so divine that he is furious when we don’t pray but he likes it when we kill each other because the others are wrong.

Any spirituality should be derived from a feeling of unity, not a feeling of separation.

Separation is the cause of all suffering on this planet.

We are all one.

Imagine all the cells in your body will fight and each will swim towards its own individual success. (Actually, I think that’s what happens when we have a disease).

Think of yourself as “god” to everything inside of you, which is of course a universe.

Think of us as filling a bigger universe and thus our “god” is also only a part of a never ending chain of relativity.

Everything is energy, consciousness, constantly evolving.
