quote:
ORIGINAL: kiwisub12 As do i. To me , god is a benign personage, caring, compassionate - basically like a good mother. S/he doesn't abandon her off-spring because they are sick/bad/stupid - she loves them until such time that they can return that love. If my kid murdered someone, i would continue to love her - and hate the deed. How can god be less than me? Talk about crippling your god - attributes limited by human scope would be extremely limiting to a god powerful enough to create the universe. There is such a thing as tough love. The Divine is 'outside' our universe, closer to any point in the universe than a Planck length, but apart from it. You are attributing human characteristics to it that have no meaning 'outside' our universe except as mathematical binary values. The Divine is limited for interfering into the universe on its own accord would defeat the purpose of the universe and of man. It is powerless to do anything except to facilitate the desires and will of the inhabitants of our universe - provided that the universe enables it to comply. You are not worshiping the Divine, but a human pagan god who was murdered thousands of years ago and thereby dethroned.
