My theory is that god is like a deadbeat dad who left when I was a little kid and always ducked out of paying child support to my mother.
Will god show up eventually? Maybe. In which case he'll probably just start asking me for ****, and get all defensive and pissed-off when I ask him why he wasn't there when I needed him. Then he'll probably beat me up, take a drink from the liquor flask he keeps in his pocket, and then make a snide comment before kicking my ass into the ditch next to the road (aka Hell).
In any case, my theory is "**** him". I don't need him.
My theory is that God is a guy named Steve. He's a part-time landscaper, but his real passion in life is causing confusion en masse and generally being a jackass for mysterious reasons. Most of the time Steve looks like he's a nice guy, but then he goes and does something horrible and refuses to say why. Damn that Steve.

God created the big bang.KittenNipplesThere's a reason why it is called the "Big Bang". It's self-explanatory.

Physics are starting to gleam some amazing details about the basic structure of the Universe and what they are beginning to learn is mind boggling. In essence, matter does not exist except in our perception. Everything we see, feel, hear, touch, and taste are simply electric charges that are filtered through our nervous systems and brain too give us a recreated image of the light particles coming into our eyes. This means, that while we have an "image" of what reality is, and it seems very real to our sense; in actuality, we have no idea what reality really looks like.
My theory is that God is an eternal consciouseness that permeates all of spacetime and gives rise to everything we see. Materialists base most their thoughts on the idea that most matter in our universe is inert and dead, but some scientists are starting to believe differently. What they are finding is that the smaller and smaller you go in measurements and studying the basic particles of everything, the lessin tune they become with what we know as "reality".
For instance, when you turn back the cosmic clock all the way to the Big Bang, you see a time when every single particle and energy force (gravity, electromagnetic, nuclear strong, and weak forces) was at one time unified to about the size of green pea. What scientists have recently figured out is that even though the Big Bang and cosmic expansion seems to be moving everything apart in the Universe, all matter is still connected through an unseen energy. Just because particles have moved apart, there is still a force between them. This is true for everything in the Universe, including us. My idea is that God created this world as an illusion so that he could know himself in his experience. When you break everything down, you realise that all matter is ultimately light in solidified form. Light forms atoms, which forms molecules, which ultimately form objects. Kinda gives a different meaning to the bible verse, "Let there be Light." God created light before everything else andnothing could exist without light.
Now as I was saying, God created what we percieve as the Universe as a contextual field in which Life could be expressed in all different types of vibrations (planets, stars, dust, gas, humans, black holes, ect.). In actuality reality as we percieve it is just that, a perception, and not necessarily indicating what reality really is. Some scientists, and I agree with them, are now suggesting that the Universe itself is a mass consciousness creating at many many different levels, but all with one source which is a source of unlimited knowing and unlimited potential. Now consciousness, whenever it arises in the Universe, is given individuality through it's separate nervous system, but actual self awareness that each of us possesses is the same consciousness, just expressed at different levels.
I know, kinda complex ideas here, but this video will help you understand a little better, as well as the Conversations with God series, cause they propose the same ideas I'm stating here.

I don't actually believe in God or deities of any kind. I think the use of the "Higgs Boson" in reference to god has been taken out of context too. It's refered too as the "God particle" but all scientists theorise is that there must be a particle in the universe which gives mass to everything, including itself. Thats "all" the Higgs Boson is (if it exists (research suggests it does but nobody has ever found it)..

If a god exisits, then he created everything out of love and created life for us to enjoy it.
If no god exists, then we're just here for the lulz.
why does it have to be those two options? why does god have to make everything out of love and created life for us to enjoy it? what purpose would that serve for it? because no god exists doesnt mean there isn't a purpose in life other than "for the lulz". im curious how these conclusions were met.[QUOTE="dog64"]why does it have to be those two options? why does god have to make everything out of love and created life for us to enjoy it? what purpose would that serve for it? because no god exists doesnt mean there isn't a purpose in life other than "for the lulz". im curious how these conclusions were met.If a god exisits, then he created everything out of love and created life for us to enjoy it.

That is just my "theory". I never said those had to be the only two options, that's just the way I see it. If a god did create us, I would believe he would do it out of love and because he wanted to share the joys of living. That's the kind of being I think god would be. I wouldn't think god would be evil or selfish.
If god doesn't exist, that decreases the chance of an afterlife so when we die, that's it. The end. That would mean life really has no point other than to live it up while you're still here.
I'll answer by leaving the lyrics to the old hymn written in 1826 by Reginald Heber entitled Holy, Holy, Holy:
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee;
Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!
Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,
Who was, and is, and evermore shall be.
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in pow'r, in love, and purity.
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea;
Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons, blessed Trinity!

Very interesting.. This wall of informationis stuffI hadpondered a lot and learnedby myself through reading certain spiritual and religous texts and deep meditation every night for the past 6 months. Imagine my shock when I realised much of what I was pondering in my head turned out to be eerily similar to Quantum Mechanics and the Unified Field.. The physical "reality" that we all percieve is like the tip of an iceberg, and just below the surface is a huge reality that we aren't even aware of. For instance, we can observe 3 dimensions of space and 1 of time, but in actuality scientists believe there are TEN dimensions of reality and we are only aware of a few of them.
Very few people know God properly, even the people who claim to know him, much of them will be really surprised and will regret alot.GazaAli
What is your theory on proper knowing of God if you don't mind my asking?
I believe that all religions have part of the truth and no religion has all of the truth.
when everyone realizes that we will be a lot closer to stopping much of the needless violence.
It is as impossible for anyone to be completely wrong as it is impossible for anyone to be completely correct.
yet there are so many who continue to argue (and call it evangelizing or preaching) with an air off superiority that is just annoying.
I find evangelizing to be fundamentally annoying when I already have my own belief and I doubt there are many who feel differently.
It is not so much that I mind hearing someone else's message but the attitude of most of the messengers is that I have no choice but to change my ways.
HA!

The truth is, im a religious muslim, so i learned about Allah from Islam and other religious muslims. Then i stopped being religious, and just lived my life. then after the age of 18 or 19, i started going back to be a religious muslim, but this was it was different. I developed a deeper link with Allah, i started seeing alot of things differently in a way lots of people will think im being crazy. I dont know how to explain it in a way that will reach you, its hard, and people will probably not get it.
