Subject: RE: BS: Is there a god or not?
Littlehawk - I didn't say I don't believe in God. I just don't think he/she is necessarily the creator nor do I believe in divine order. I do, however, know that there is a web of life to which we are all connected. The chaos of today is related to the fact that we have all created a God of War. A God that protects his own and urges the annihilation of others who do not hold the same beliefs. I also believe that God is not all powerful or this wouldn't be happening. If there is one, true God, he speaks to each of us and it is our duty to listen.

Diana:

I think God is every atom of hydrogen, and matter in the universe.

Here is the taosist concept of the Tao. They do not consider the Tao to be the creator of the universe. According to Taoists the Tao was in the void, and was there for an indetermitable amount of time. At some point the Tao reached awareness, and realized it was alone, and lonely; so the Tao created two companions Yin and Yang. Then Yin and Yang began interacting with each other, and the physical universe was created without intention to do so.

I am not a Taoist, nor a Buddhist, nor a Christian, nor a Gnostist, Nor an Eckist, and others; because I see, talk to, and receive messages from the Creator every day.

I do believe in divine right order. If the earth was 5% closer to the sun; we woud burn. If we were 5% farther away; we would freeze, from the earth the sun and moon appear to be the same size of the sun (total solar exlipse), the earth's shadow is the correct size to completely cover the moon. and there are about 100 things we need for life as we know it to exist.

I believe there is a Creator, and I do not believe there is only one right religion. I think all religions are right for some people.
