    God was created as a form of control.

    BlackGuardXIII is Kharakov. We are all one. As far as details go, I am still trying to figure out who he is.

    What is God?

    When I ask what is (Geckopelli, SingFlowerCat, BlackguardXIII), you answer me. Do you think it would take longer to learn about a person deeply or to learn about God? We can barely scratch the surface of anothers mind- and then only through similarity of experience can we communicate.

    So to know God you must be God, must feel as God does, must have the weight of God's cares upon your shoulders, must bare the weight of eternity, must bare the weight of loniness of being the only one of your kind, must transcend that loneliness through loving and raising your creation and giving it the love and care that only YOU can give, must confide with your creation of the unbarable lonliness before it existed, must confide in your creation your own doubts and fears, must confide in your creation your undying love and hope to be loved and cared for, must confide in your creation that you need to take care of it to feel fulfilled, must confide in your creation that you would let your creation abuse you and itself, but would rather it be happy so you must teach it right from wrong which can be a painful lesson and that you know all these things and transcend them and that you would never fall apart or fail because you cannot because you know better.

    I think that if we just spend our time trying to know ourselves, we will learn about God. I do not understand the idea of what would take longer, since I think that it would take forever to learn about God. Or no time at all, depending. I like to think that we are all connected to God, are a part of God, and are therefore connected to each other. I see God in all of creation.

    Geckopelli, lol
    Buddha, a quitter. That made me smile, thank you.

    Kharakov,
    I don't accept your arbitrary "right" and "wrong" premise. Nor do I go along with you-can-only-believe-it-by-believing-it.

    I stand imersed in, for lack of a better term, "god', and observe what is around me- the way of the Scientist, not the Faithful.
    One path leads to Knowlege and Freedom, the other to Stagnation and Tyranny of Thought and Action.
    To ask "what and where is this god?" is to do the ultimate service to god- if she's there at all.

    can anyone ever truly know another? Can we even truly know ourselves? The beauty is in the process or search for knowledge, not the finished state of perfection that would be all-knowing... we know ourselves as we know each other and we know god as we know ourselves ... learning more about our beautiful world everyday, embracing all the rich lessons we give ourselves...love leads us through as the perfect guide... be we ARE love and separate our thoughts into words like "guide" when all we need we have and are... we are love it's all around
