I have seen the eyes of the Dog! He's three posts up...

All dogma aside (rimshot), my view of any religion tends to be tainted from over-reading (Joseph Campbell and Twain did a lot of damage). It's left me without the ability or desire to believe in a 'god' as portrayed by any of the major monotheistic religions that scatter the theological landscape, but it's also given me a wicked sense of humour when dealing with our area Jehovah's Witnesses - you haven't had fun until you've drug out the 'folk tales' from ancient religions predating Christianity that closely mirror most of the 'miracles' in the bible. They tend to get rather put off by that.

So aside from the definition from dictionary.com that I put up earlier, what does 'god' mean to me? I'd have to say that it's an unknowable variable. If god is everything and everywhere, then there will never be a way to divine its true nature, as to do so would be to become god. If god is NOT, then first off the religions have some major recalibration to accomplish, and second... is it god, then?

Sheesh... thinking like this give Mongo headache. Mongo go drink beer now.
