Page 101 scene 71 and counting on everyone who cares!
Ref: posts 358 & 393 (...494 ect..)
As Jesus said "If you have seen me, then you have seen God"
If your heart is filled with hate, with desire for material, things it is that which you will see.
However, taking posts 358 & 393 into account also, if you look at your Sister, Your brother, your Neighbour with a universal and spiritual love, then you have seen God.
However, God is in everything, so you need to use your clairvoyance and your heart to see Him.
One could say God is the spirit of the supreme Goodness in life, therefore, if you are filled with that spirit of supreme Goodness, then you will see God too. Of course, you yourself are God too, (or part of Him), so it shouldn't be too difficult to look into a mirror to see the spark of Bramha.
However, the human has a purpose on earth, part of that purpose is to understand that you are just part of God's plan, and His plan for you will surely lead you to Him at the right time, so one must be Patient.
You will hear the Muslim say, there is only one God, ok, we are part of that oneness, each with his role to play, each religion, each individual. That part,that role, by the way is inescapable.
You cannot see God unless He wants you to, but with care, who knows, He may want you to see Him right Now. If not a bit of humility is needed, as you realise all depends on the will of God and His overall plan for the whole of humanity. Around Buddha there have been many miracles; this is God in action. He didn't reveal Himself to Buddha as God because Man wasn't ready for that, at that particular time, everything happens according to the timetable of His plan. However we are more advanced today and the Buddhist can take these advances into account if God allows it and if, (perhaps), if the person in question makes an effort to understand. However if God wants you to understand then you will with little or no effort. So it's case by case according to the will of God whatever name you may address Him by.
Be happy with that part of the plan you are living as each part is supremely inportant to the overall success of the plan, in whatever way you may see your role. Some may live according to their ('libre arbitre') free will and feel it is not important to take God into account, one can't force God on another, each persons freedom to do as He or She sees best is paramount, but it's Good to see things universally too
May your life be full, in a purpose, with little or no doubts.

To be or not to be, that's not only a question, but a question of choice!
God is simple, not complex.
"What strikes me as most misguided is the premise that there is a need for answers to questions that are of dubious meaning, some of which can only exist by taking even more dubious premises on their own.How is that any different from God being an unnecessary entity, a non-explanation that is nevertheless proposed to exist simply because people feel reassured by proposing a conscious will behind all of existence?
Just pointing out your double-standard.I take it that you wanted to quote and answer my post?
I am not seeing any. Will you please enlighten me?Just pointing out your double-standard.
No, it definitely can not.
Not even hypothetically.
Heck, atheism can't even tell me the time of the day. That comes with being an absence of what turns out to be a minor characteristic in the first place, I suppose.
On the other hand, atheism also can't stand in the way of rational thought, so that is something.
Which reminds me that you should consider how odd this set of expectations of yours is.
1. Why would there be an issue of origins? Are you implying that it must be possible to meaningfully ask why things exist? That is by no means a given, you know.
2. Why would atheism (as opposed to any of several conceivable rational stances that atheism, being an absence, fails to inhibit) actually do anything?
3. Also, from post #452 I take it that you may somehow think of some conception of deity as an answer for "the origin of that which exists"? That would be giving a non-answer - as a matter of fact, an entirely mythological concept - to a question that does not even need an answer and may well refuse any.
Why would you, or anyone, do that, let alone demand others to?
My belief in God is like my belief in fairies.
What is your belief in regards to the DEVIL?
