God, the creator of the universe.

God, the creator of the universe/universes is abrahamic and at the same time God is not abrahamic.
God, the creator of the universe/universes is dharmic and at the same time God is not dharmic.
God, the creator of the universe/universes is pagan and at the same time God is not pagan

God has no religion. God is greater than we think.

Any thoughts? Do you agree or disagree?

Most presume that God created their religion.

Correct, very many over 200. Of the approximately 4200 gods worshipped by humanity (excluding Hindu gods) around 3800 of them were creator gods.
There is only one higher power/creator/God of the universe/universes. Different religions in reality explain and understand this higher power in different ways. In reality they believe in the same God/higher power in my belief.

So the 4200 gods in reality is just 4200 different ways to understand and explain the higher power/God who is the creator of the universe/universes

It is only the beginning. She will reveal her purpose at the right time.I am an atheist. So, imaginary things are out.
You believe God/a higher power is imaginary. I believe God/a higher power is not imaginary.

Do you believe God created your religion?

I don't keep any beliefs about God.
I accept the truth of my own ignorance.

I just happen to know folks that presume otherwise.
For whatever reason they accept the words of some Prophet as the truth about God.

Atheist here. From what I've seen most religions contradict each other to the exclusion of other Gods.

Perhaps you seek a God independent of all religions so far? I seek that kind of God, but I'm at my last straw with even that.
Why are you at last straw with that?

I see. Are you agnostic?

I personally disagree that there is any evidence that God is creator/intervener in the material realm, although I'm unclear as to whether you were claiming the opposite.

In my opinion.
God is the creator of the material realm. God is not the material realm. God is spirit. God is spiritual. God is not material

No they don't, thats just a monotheist verbal to discredit every other religion but their own.

Many of which were worshipped thousands of years before the abrahamic god was invented

Why are you at last straw with that?
The world looks to me like it just happens to be there with very little purpose behind it's existence. Life seems to be an after thought in the vast cosmos.

The idea of God strongly suggests that life is meant to be something of great value and great destiny. The universe on the other hand treats life otherwise.

I don't see God as the Creator. I see God as the ever-present silent stillness within us. Perhaps God only exists internally as a psychological phenomenon.

I agree that God is God, but I don't see the god of the bible as the creator. He's more an Asura/Rakshasa in my view.
I find that's a common view among those who feel hurt/disillusioned by, especially, their experience of Christianity and moved to different religious paradigms. I felt the same, many times.
