Subject: RE: BS: Religious beliefs - no standing in law
Don, as usual you make little or no sense. Let me try to simplify, the difference.

In the beginning, God (light, love, life, consciousness) created man, in His own image,... and ever since, man has been trying to return the favor.(Religion)

Steamin' Willie: "Nobody "makes" light, it is a quantum event which we loosely describe as a photon. If you really must use biblical quotes to prove the god concept, I personally prefer God is Love. At least that calls out to human interaction and interventionalism. And is as much bollocks as the light quote...."

Correct, nobody makes 'light'. ..and yet, all things are made of light. Which correlates another verse, " In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it."

I hope that sheds new 'light' on the subject.
Perhaps, what confuses a lot of folks, is they assume the HE, and Him, are exclusive to a singular 'personage',..like themselves...in which case refer to my reply to Don T.

Concept, concept, concept!

That being said, being as I've quoted the New Testament a couple of times, (which quotes happen to be consistent with science, and Einstein's quotes, I wasn't planning on getting into 'proving' that there is, or is not a God'. I'm not exactly a fundamentalist evangelical type....nor have I expressed, subscribing to any 'religion', or 'denomination' on here. So I don't want to get pigeon-holed, by those whose limited brained 'anti-God rap' is aimed at, just by the thought of a God.
