My Explanation of God.

by LAWHFol in

i am a theist & this is my version of god.. instead of using the term god, i'll use "unseen presence".. this unseen presence, is perfect in every way.

this presence is so perfect it can seem a bit boring.this perfection can be seen in the laws of science, for example gravity.. it does not sometimes work, depending on the mood of some one in the sky, it always works, perfectly.

gravity does not get angry and decide to stop working, and cause the death of innumerable living beings, it just works, through thick or thin, it is reliable.. what allows this unseen presence to remain perfect, is the fact that it does not act based on emotion, or strategy or regret.. it acts based on law, mathematical law.. this unseen presence is not partial to jews or muslims or jw's it is completely impartial at all times, to everything that exists.

prologos - I agree personally, with the Deist version as well.. It's just difficult to explain, the only thing that i can think of saying is .. That which propelled the Big Bang, and that which proceeds the eventual collapse of the Universe. (Perhaps Matter and Antimatter ?? IDK)

Viviane - I'll answer your question with a question.. What evidence is there for Math? What is it made of? What manifestations does Math create?

Everything that is know to exist, is a result of the Unseen Presence.

The original commandment is not seen, it is Known by All.. It is Hardwired in our DNA. It is Evolution. Do all that you can do for yourself, while not hurting anyone else, and you are faithful to the command. Work together when ever possible, and only compete when absolute necessary.

redvip - None of the attributes that I describe are things that a Man made God would have.

You are correct, since this Presence is Everything, I can call a Rock or a Fish "God".

Not only is that Good feeling you get when you Drink Beer God.. You are God, so the more you immerse yourself in the experience, the more you will feel this presence. Live life like you Deserve to live - Great.

This Unseen Presence, is perfect in Every Way. This Presence is so Perfect it can seem a bit Boring.

This perfection can be seen in the Laws of Science, for example Gravity.. It does not sometimes work, depending on the Mood of some one in the Sky, it Always works, perfectly. Gravity does not get Angry and decide to stop working, and cause the Death of innumerable living beings, it Just works, through thick or thin, it is reliable.

What allows this Unseen Presence to remain perfect, is the fact that it does not Act based on Emotion, or Strategy or regret.. It acts based on Law, Mathematical Law.

This Unseen Presence is not Partial to Jews or Muslims or JW's it is Completely impartial at all times, to everything that Exists

This Unseen Presence is very humble, it does not desire to be Worshipped or Praised, it does not even desire to be Known.

The only way that it can be Known is through it's resulting manifestations.

This Unseen Presence does not Write down Laws in Books or on Stone tablets, it writes Laws down in Nature, it's bible is Called "The Laws of Nature".

When someone speaks of this Unseen Presence they may say "It Exists".. They may also say "It does not Exist."

This Unseen Presence has made only one Commandment for Humans.. The commandment can be expressed in one Word - "Evolve".

This Unseen is You and it Is me, it is My Dog, and it is your Neighbour it is the Moon and the Sun, it is even Stephen Lett.

We are all this Unseen Presence. We must Evolve.

Loveuni - It may be true, that you do not currently possess God Like powers, that you are immediately aware of, this however does not mean that you are not God.

Perhaps you should stop looking outward, and you should instead look inward.

Here is an unrelated PDF File summary re Conti on Page 97 :

http://stonedeanlaw.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/2015-Semi-Annual-California-Case-Law-Update-FINAL.pdf

"Conti v. Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, Inc. (2015) 235 Cal.App.4th 1214 April 13, 2015 In 1994, Jonathan Kendrick was convicted of a misdemeanor after he admitted to touching his fourteen-year-old stepdaughter’s breast. In the year leading up to Kendrick’s conviction, he and his family discussed the molestation incident with elders in their church, the North Fremont Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses. One of the Congregation’s elders reported “a case of child abuse” to the Congregation and Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, Inc. (“Watchtower”), the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ headquarters at the time. The Fremont Congregation removed Kendrick from his role as a ministerial servant, and, in keeping with Watchtower policy, information about the molestation was kept confidential. Kendrick was told that he could not work with children as part of his service with the Congregation, and he was further informed he would be watched closely by all of the Congregation’s elders. The elders told Kendrick’s wife that it was her decision whether to report the incident to police, which she did, ultimately leading to Kendrick’s conviction. Later, Kendrick found his way into the family of Candace Conti, who were fellow members of the Fremont Congregation. According to Conti, Kendrick began molesting her around the time she turned nine years old in late 1994. The molestations continued several times a month for some two years, generally occurring at Kendrick’s home after Congregation meetings and during “field service,” a church-sponsored activity where members went door-to-door preaching in the community. During field service, in particular, Kendrick had unsupervised access to Conti. Conti sued Watchtower, the Fremont Congregation, and Kendrick for damages for sexual abuse. Conti alleged willful acts by Kendrick and negligence in the defendants’ failure to warn members of the Congregation that Kendrick was a child molester, and in failing to restrict and supervise his participation in church activities. Conti included a cause of action for “acts of malice” supporting punitive damages against Watchtower, based upon its “secrecy policy” in relation to child sexual abusers despite knowing of their likelihood of re-offending. At trial, the trial court instructed the jury that the defendants had a duty to take reasonable protective measures to protect Conti from the risk of sexual abuse by Kendrick, and that the presence or absence of any warning was a factor that the jurors could consider. The jury found Kendrick, Watchtower, and the Congregation liable, and apportioned fault 60% to Kendrick, 27% to Watchtower, and 13% to the Congregation. Conti accepted a reduced punitive damages award, and the judgment was entered accordingly Page | 98 Disclaimer: This white paper is provided as general information only and is not intended to be or to replace legal advice. © Stone | Dean LLP The Court of Appeal affirmed the judgment in part, reversed in part, and remanded the action with directions. The Court held that the church had no duty to warn its congregation or a child molestation victim’s parents that a church member molested another child in the past. The court held further that the church did have a duty to limit and supervise the child molester’s “field service,” which involved door-to-door preaching in the community, in light of his history of child molestation"
