God Sees Everything

God is able to see everything we do. He also can read our minds and also knows our intentions

In Hebrews
And there is not a creation that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and openly exposed to the eyes of the one to who we have an accounting to.

 

Yes, nothing is hidden from his sight. All the hunger, disease, poverty, war, and crime is witnessed by this so called benevolent god of yours. This all-knowing, all-powerful god has the ability to eliminate all this, but you're right...he just watches. A being definitely worthy of our love and worship.

 

God is a product of religion. God is the hijacker of creation. God is dog backwards.

I am not a believer in "God," nor am I am atheist. I believe in the process which gave birth to everything which is called creation. God was designed to take people away from creation and replace it with a man-made system of control we call religion.

There is a difference between religion and spirituality. Spirituality is a oneness with creation that can only be achieved by knowing oneself -- not by blindly following some religion.

 

I guess I should be embarrassed 'cuz he saw me lopin' the mule last eve.

Anything created requires a creator. Sounds about right, but I'm not buying the commonly (human)accepted ideas about it. I don't dig sadism, which evidently appeals to this god dude. Too many little babies mashed up before they ever have a chance to become---anything much. And the rest of it that everyone can see.

 

God is God. We humans project a lot of human things on God. Example:

And also in a way the OP of course. God is not some divine human like being that reads your mind like a fellow human. God might be aware of or noticing every thing in the universe but to proclaim with certainty this is so (and especially to conclude God sucks because of the assumption It does not act upon it in a moral/human way) tells me you guys are kind of stuck in a certain perspective of God.
The being in Audrey's pic does not seem that worthy of our love and praise (why worship anything, esp. if we don't feel like it) indeed, but it is a highly hypothetical and of course kind of humorous portrayal of the creating force of the universe That it gets liked so easily by a(nti)theists does not always mean it is actual sensical or meaningful. Even though the point you're obviously making with it holds meaning, it is about a specific portrayal of certain religious people only. Not about what God really is or might be. Just my 2 cents!

 

I agree there's a difference. Which of course does not mean spirituality and religion are incompatible. Or that everyone that is part of a religion is following it blindly.

- Captain Obvious to the rescue.

I disagree, except about the 3rd statement :-D

Concepts of God are mainly a product of the human mind looking for explanations. It is very plausible such concepts or human personifications of the creating force are older then any organized belief. The concepts just got specified and narrowed down with religions.

Makes sense to me.

That is not the sole reason either God or religions were designed. It is (ab)used like that, yes. Some religions seem primarily designed to do that indeed, but does that really also say something about God? Well maybe if we expect divine intervention from a beardy guy on a cloud it would.

 

And what is your evidence that the issue is that we are stuck on a perspective of god? What is your evidence that this view is not correct? What is your evidence that god is anything at all?

 

The evidence that you and the OP are stuck on a certain perspective of God are of course your own posts

About my evidence that God is anything at all: I have said several times (also to you) I don't have it. So.... why are you asking it again? Memory problems? Or do you suspect I am secretly denying you the evidence?

We are all expressing our thoughts, beliefs and opinions on the matter. I am inclinded to believe God is indeed 'something'. I am sorry (for you) if you find that troublesome. And it would be really sad if it would make you inclined to think I am a stereotypical believer, as it is already kind of sad how you and many others on here are sometimes stereotyping any religious believer (albeit you are willing to nuance it to a specific kind of religious believer if someone points out you're at first terribly generalizing and stereotyping ).

 

this is just a myth perpetuated to make people feel guilty about masturbating.

 

like shooting fish in a barrel.
some of you guys are soooooo predictable and sooooo easily baited....LOL

future posts these lame-assed threads and all the atheist or whatever come crawling out of the woodwork.....LOL



here is my reply to thefutureawaits;
have a snack

 

I have to agree with you that I do not take futureawaits's religious views (he wants us to believe he's a real jehovah's witness) too serious. This is mainly because he clearly displayed other views under previous usernames (LornaDoom). He also promised before he would stick with these threads to the sanctuary subforum. I don't really care if he doesn't stick to that, it just shows he is not really consistent in what he says.

His threads are indeed bait threads, and most likely not sincerly expressing his own views. This is kind of lame if we happen to care about individuals that do happen to be real jehovah's witnesses (as if they don't get stigmatized and ridiculed enough ), wether we agree with JW's beliefs or not, as he is giving a bad example of a real group of other people of which he's not a representative.

 

He isn't giving jehovah's witnesses a bad rap, they earned that all on their own. So have most religious folks.

Maybe if they hadn't been knocking on my parents' door every goddamn month of my life to give us literature and tell us what a sinful family we are, just because my grandmother asked them to stop coming when she lived there (old family house), I wouldn't have a problem with them. Just like if those Mormons hadn't cornered me on a bus and followed me home basically harassing me about my choices one day.

 

I didn't believe in God until he supplied more lube at the end of the bottle while watching me have the time of my life on this croatian girl

 

Here they will never knock on your door again when you ask them to leave and stop coming, so I reckon you don't have a problem with all JW's The way I see it when you go in threads like these and proclaim some negative clichés about a religion and/or most religious folks, then you took the bait.

 

I guess I get confused about how you know something like this. You are clearly communicating a piece of information you have about god, and I'm just wondering where you got this from. How is it that you know that god is not a kind of divine person (half the planet disagrees with you) and how you know that god cannot hear our thoughts (again, you are in disagreement with the vast majority of people who believe in god).

 

you blame God for what happening? You should be blaming Adam, Eve and Satan

 

Lmao! they are right you must be a troll.

 

Adam and Eve were the slaves "God" (the hijacker) created to be the worker bees of the system we have today. After all, there was nobody to "til the soil." They were told not to eat from the tree of knowledge because of course religion and the people who control it want to keep the people in the dark and in a state of perpetual ignorance. Of course Eve took the blame for Adam eating from that tree, which is because women are at the bottom according to the people who run the show. This is why you find all the major religions tend to look down upon women. You never traditionally saw female priests, and Islam sees women as less than animals. Great thing religion is.

 

This is the thing. All religions are wrong about the history of man. There is only one truth and that is found in the bible.

All the religions teach false doctrine, lies and celebrate man made holidays, traditions. They pledge allegiance to thier flag, believe everything the news and media feeds them. Go to wars and kill each other, eat nachos and watch football and are so preoccupied with other things to even watch developments in the world.
