I don't understand life or the universe
by Decided ini'm 75 years old and am confused about life and god.
all explainations seem made up by some religious person or some written book that doesn't make any sense to me.
why doesn't a god just let us know that he exist in some way that all people could understand.

Decided,i appreciate your post.Just wanted to let you hear my post.I have decided that I am my god.Not yours,or anyone elses,but mine.I make life altering decisions for myself everyday,I look out for myself,I look out for my friends.I am happy.I AM GOD....Ive read the bible many times.Sorry,dosnet make sense in this head.I dont like imagined authority.Real authority os enough.If the translating the bible into whatever you want makes one happy,than ,cool! Great! Same with jogging,smoking or drinking.Or watching reruns of I Love Lucy.Do what makes YOU feel right and good.Thats all we need to do.The rest will follow.Good luck,and enjoy this beautiful day,its a personal gift from me!!!lol
