So who's to define what god is?	by ripley8	2005-12-21 06:52:52
God's not a guy in white robes with a beard of wisdom sitting up in the sky looking down upon human (and other) people. I don't see a single person at all as my idea of what "god" is. It's more of a metaphorical aggregate of all aspects that make up what people think god's supposed to be. In my opinion about everything which involves churches and other forms of religion probably is wrong about the truth of deity in every aspect. And possibly they're equally right about it at the same time. Worshipping according to a set of rules - most of which have evolved over time and have lost their need or meaning (like for example not being allowed certain kind of foods for a group probably started out of health issues related to a climate where said foods spoilt so soon it was just too dangerous to eat so a rule was established to keep people from poisoning themselves when they had no better knowledge on when that food might still be safe) and started as a way to get a functioning society once such a set of rules started to be nescessary - in my opinion does not help your relationship with said deity at all. OTOH I come to think that certain aspects in the universe (like for example the 4° anomaly of water) may be more than coincidence. Without said anomaly, life as we know it wouldn't be possible. But then, we are of course adapted to how physics in our universe work because we evolved in it. It's a little bit of chicken and egg. Are we that way due to the universe or is the universe that way so life can be like it is and in that case how much coincidence is in this? Or maybe isn't?
