This doesn't answer my question, though.

I wrote: You mentioned communicating via your soul and 'conscious' - that's what I'm interested in. How do you do it and how is it a verifiable means of communication? What are the processes involved?

I will share how this process works for me.It is more of a place of being then anything.Take the strongest feeling of love and multiply it over and over and its like basking in a sea of this love.Every limiting thought disipates and all negativity just vanishes. It seems every cell in the body becomes alive with energy and you are just rejuvinating new life into the body.Every bad and evil thought you have even toward your worst enemies turns into thoughts of love and you can't even stop praying for those you you thought you hated most.It is a universal love does not even exist inside of yourself but just seems to come into your heart and take over.You can feel sickness and alien energies in your body being destroyed from this place and its as though you just release it through your consciousness.Death completely looses its sting and fear cannot even dwell in the same place.Your consciousness opens wide open and is not contracted around thoughts period.It is like a light is turned on inside of you and all of the garbage and limiting thoughts you have held onto just leave and is replaced with more love and an over whelming feeling of peace.Depression and other mental illnesses are just let go of and released as they can't dwell in this presence of energy.All nagging voices you may have had in the back of your mind making you think you have to do this or that or have this or that to be happy are suddenly vanished and you are just left with a quiet mind and a sense that is all is well and left to be in peace and joy.

Do we know that God got to decide or choose and pick his emotions?

We don't know anything. You're just guessing anyway. My point was that you said you'd rather have a God that was loving, etc. rather than just a cold robot. But that would also mean that God would be subject to bad emotions like hatred, jealousy, fear and rage. I could do without a god that had those qualities, even if it meant he was also without the good qualities.

Ok, well I was thinking about humans when I posted that, not God.

OK, you said God is a person. Someone responded saying God would not be subject to flawed emotions. You then responded by asking whether someone would rather people be robots and not love, etc. What use is that question unless it's referring to God, since he is like people? The implication of the question is that God, too, would be better with emotions like love and joy, rather than being robotic. So, my comment was that, if you want God to be like that, you also advocate a god that is jealous, afraid and feels hatred.

I agree. If God is everything, then he must also be the bad things. Otherwise it's an invalid statement.

My position is emotions are not bad things, we have them for a reason and they serve a purpose. Humans fail yes but personhood emotions aren't bad. Can you help explain how emotions are bad.

Of course they aren't. But, from the Christian I have asked about this, they don't consider God to have those elements because they are the 'bad' in people - anger/ hatred etc.

The concept of person is far too broad to account for anything. Legally a corporation meets the requirements to be a person.

So here is a question for consideration that gets down to the very core of the matter. Is G-d a (or the) man of holiness?

So, you don't consider rage and hatred to be bad?
