"And obviously this god is not you yourself - you know you are not a God."

To the contrary, there is a great deal of very interesting spiritual literature now that suggests that we all are God. That doesn't mean that we all are in charge of everything and everyone else, it simply means that God, being infinite, comprises all beings and all phenomena...since the infinite must, by definition, comprise everything. Everything arises out of the infinite, and everything is God extending itself into manifestation.

The large brain you speak of may indeed be analogous to the God presence/consciousness (which is implicit in everyone), while the small brain is analogous to the ego...which falsely imagines itself to be separate from God and from everyone else...and doesn't listen to the God within most of the time (if at all).

That is the crux of the spiritual problem, Bald Eagle.

Your view of God is the ego's view of God...meaning, it sees "God" as a much bigger (but separate) and probably mythical version of itself. God is not separate from anyone or anything. God is not male, female, or neutral, but is all of those together. God cannot be argued with or bargained with because He/She/It is not separate from you. You can't have an argument with something that is not separate from yourself nor can you get away from it...except by pretending it isn't there. ;-)

The ego either pretends God isn't there...or if it's religiously inclined it turns God into a monstrous (and sacred) version of itself on a much larger scale...but whatever it does, it makes sure to keep God SEPARATE from people.

And God is not separate from you or anyone else. You are God, and so is everyone else, but until you realize that you and everyone else and everything else IS God you will continue concocting bizarre arguments to prove that the impossible separate God you made up in your mind can't exist. And you will continue, in all probability, hating, killing, wasting, and messing up your world...if you're like the average human being who lives entirely in his ego consciousness.

It's amusing. But it's your free will, so go right ahead if you want to. God will not stop you. ;-)
