Subject: RE: BS: Atheists: No 'so help me God'
I see your point. ;-) Still, God is both the Alpha and the Omega, right? So can't God be both the darkness and the light? I would figure so.

I don't envision a Universe that is divided into "God" and "not-God", because that just doesn't make sense to me. I think that all of it is God.

I don't think God's "over there somewhere" (at a distance) either. I think God is simultaneously existing everywhere. That would be both outside and within oneself. Such a God, needless to say, is not confined within just one visible figure or manifestation.

The only possible means of separation from such a God is simply a lack of awareness on one's own part...and that is the normal human condition: a lack of awareness (to one extent or another). A fully enlightened human is simply a human who has reached full awareness.

Science has determined that we use only a small percentage of our total brain capacity. What would happen if we used all of it? We would, I think, become extraordinary beings, and many very interesting changes would occur.
