God is seasons and or Time... NATURE God is not only Kind but very brutal.. KARMA We are the agents of this God.. both positively and negatively.. cos God has never done anything by self except through us. Without YOU, God cannot exist. YOU leave here.. God leaves.... YOUR LIFETIME. It is the religious invented God that has caused this confusion and unbelief. |

engrchykae: Sure they did, but there were also few men like Democritus of Abdera a Greek colony in Ionia who was one of the earliest know atheist, in fact he is now regarded as father of the atom. Also, in present day western societies the number of religious people is still significantly larger. But the superior advances of both ancient Greece and the west were developed not through the method of religion but through rationality. To buttress my point consider the example of China, even though it has a very large population and a rich culture it was brought into submission by werstern powers through the use of advanced weaponry developed through rationality. But China has learnt its lesson, and has actually succeeded in almost closing the gap between her and western powers by using the same technique which was used against her. No wonder China is sending her citizens to go acquire STEM knowledge in western institutions of learning. But at the same time is work very hard to curb the spread of western religious beliefs on its homeland. This is because China has realized that the secret of the west's superior advancement is in their application of rationality to the problem and mysteries confronting humanity. In Africa on the other hand, our people are priding themselves as the new custodian of the Abramahic religions, whilst vehemently rejecting rationality; the true secret that has been used and is still being used by nations to achieve true advancement. Really sad. 2 Likes 1 Share |

dnexteinstein:my believe in God is borne out of awe at his works. I am not talking based on what the Jews or the Moslems said but based on personal findings. Imagine as little as an ant is,it has brain,stomach and other organs and a whale also has its organs. We must refer the intelligence behind nature in order to be humane. Then we must study nature and creatures in order to be civilized. Then we must exploit or pattern our inventions after nature in order to make technological breakthroughs. By studying the birds we made airplanes. By studying ducks we made ships. By studying the eyes we made cameras. The problem of Africa is that we deliberately refused to produce. We are mentally lazy |

hobermener: Subjectivity does not deny existence of truth, it is only an affirmation that truth exist somewhere in the midst of the conundrum. Your responsibility is to find that truth, you don't find it by shying away from it. |

No one builds any structure on rebellion and expect it to be insulated from rebellion. If I break away from someone, I must expect others to break away from me. If you doubt, ask Martin Luther how far? 1 Like |

God is a Supreme being, creator of heaven and earth. According to prof. Emerson; what I see make me to believe that there is a Supreme being that created them. Ofcause they didt jump into being on their own accord. A lash at Atheists. He sent Jesus through whom you and I must be saved to make heaven. |

Re: What Is Your Perspective Of God? by Faxole: 5:34pm On Jan 28, 2018 |
Tohzara: I believe God to be the creative consciousness that existed before time, before the big bang and before the creation of the universe, and that consciousness decided to explore its own being by differentiating into different forms of being and different levels of consciousness. So in essence, we humans are God expressed in a unique form and with a unique kind of consciousness, and within us is the spark of the divine, creative consciousness of God, as is within every other expression of God. |

Faxole:Sounds a great deal like Pantheism. God is the Universe---the universe, along with everything in it, is an expression of God. Makes sense. But what do you think is the objective of this God? What is its purpose? Its telos? What does it aim to achieve? Do you believe in an eternal universe? Do you think the universe is cyclical or linear? |
Re: What Is Your Perspective Of God? by Faxole: 6:37pm On Jan 28, 2018 |
Tohzara: Yeah my religious view is sort of Pantheistic, but with some modifications. I can't say for sure what the objective of God is. I don't even think I possess the cognitive capacity to comprehend the workings of the mind of God, let alone its intentions. But from contemplation, I would conjecture that God's motive for creation is the experiencing of various possible forms of existence. I don't think I am enlightened enough on cosmology to answer this question. But I'd say that the accurate answers to your questions would seem both perplexing, counterintuitive and contrary to orthodox views of science. |
