god theory thread

I'd like to share my theory or personal beliefs in what we call god. In return I'd like to hear what some of you have to say on the subject. No flaming please. We are all entitled to our opinions. Especially on a topic of this magnitude.
I personally believe that god and the devil are the same energy. Needed to give the universe the balance it needs. I believe we are all that energy. We are all god and the devil. I mean we were created in his image right? If everything was perfect. Say like heaven then there would be no point in anything. We wouldn't evolve, live, experience, or communicate or any level. There would be no point. If all were bad then the whole system would collapse on itself. Therefore the balance is what sets the field for life as we know it. We are all immortal as it stands. Not physically of course. When we pass our energy will be reborn on another plane of existence running on completely different rules and objectives. Work will need to be done there just as its needed here. The same good and bad energy will still be the prominent force keeping everything moving. And when I say I believe we were made from the image of god I don't believe it physically. Just we are a piece of the energy that was brought here and became who we are. Life is billions of years old as far as we are concerned so it makes little sense to me that a god would have an image.. Say he looked like a human being and waited millions of years of life to create us and only us in his image. So dinosaurs and and all previous life forms were mere trash with no significance r help in the evolutionary chain.

i think of god as like, the design that gets us to harmony the best/easiest.
i think of jesus as like, a dude that inherited/followed the teaching to a T.
i think of the devil as an egomaniac who dun like to share and tries to knock people off the path any way they can.
[edit] shit, were u serious? did u want me to make up something more cosmic?

No. Of course not. Shouldn't make up anything. A personal conclusion you have come to on your own. Preferably on an experience basis. That's the only true source of knowledge. Not particularly interested in ideas that have been passed to you through a church. Not that there is anything wrong with that. A personal interpretation is just a little more of what I'm interested in reading.

Exactly. I believe Jesus to have been no different then any one of us. Mary was a whore who would have been beheaded saying she fucked sumone who wasn't her husband. Jesus was also not white. He fled to Egypt where he blended in. Sooo Yea. I also believe him to have studied Buddhism and brought back some of its teachings.

I think we got both god and the devil in us
live as thoughts/desires/emotions and we become the devil/careless
live as what isnt there when they cease, then we are one with god, appreciation/joy/peace
I believe love is more than an emotion... emotions are usually excessive thoughts frustration,fear,hate,... but love can be experienced without thoughts/time

I think of god as a Ted Bundy of sorts.
One side of him is very appealing, very charismatic, makes you believe that he wants what's best for you and everyone else. The other side of him is a murderous, psychopathic necrophiliac who just wants to club you over the head and fuck your rotting corpse to satiate his unquenchable bloodlust and his need for total control over a subject.
Thank Bundy he doesn't really exist.

Enlightenment The experience of enlightenment involves a full blown epiphany of the Oneness of the Universe: time ends, Eternity is experientially realized, and subsequently, death is experienced as a transition of being; not the end of our existence, effectively eliminating any fear of dying. The person thus raptured experiences the death of his ego; his merely limited sense of self is totally dissolved, enabling him to comprehend for the first time the Ground of All Being; the Eternal Universe of which he understands that he is. Essentially, the individual’s microcosmic, Earthly frame of reference slowly erodes leaving behind only a macrocosmic, Universal frame of reference which is almost entirely ineffable. All that was previously unconscious is revealed to consciousness: it is as if the entire mystery of life dissolves before one’s eyes, leaving one to comprehensively feel and understand the predestined purpose and synchronistic order behind all events in the Universe. The concept of God presents itself as a divine totality symbol of Love/Oneness and paradoxically, reciprocity (forming the triad of Reconciliation). The epiphany dawns upon consciousness that, “I am God” (this is precisely why Christ equated Himself with the Father, because He was acutely aware that He is the Father; He is God, of which we all are – which, by the way, was His principle teaching). This understanding is paralleled in Exodus 3:14 when Moses asks God for His name and God replies, “I am that I am.” That is, “I am that which I am – the Universe.” This tautology is also found in the Hindu Vedas (the Chandoyga Upanishad 6.8.7) as “tat tvam asi,” which translates to “thou art that.” Truly, thou art that, the Universe - God.

it is interesting to note that the only thing that prevents us from thinking "I am god" is our culture saying it is wrong, and christians saying there is only one god
the thought "I am god" is illegal in our culture.... not accepted by society
but the bible says god created man in his name, as far as I remember
as long as we dont do anything against ourselves we can achieve the bliss of god(love/peace)
but then the story is... man wanted more, wasnt satisfied with his bliss in Eden, wanted knowledge
then we became our thoughts, living more and more with our thoughts, we wanted ultimate knowledge instead of just accepting reality
thats why I believe buddhism describes it well... thoughts/emotions/desires create attachment,suffering and separates us from god(love)

Nice. Is that an original quote or is it from the passage? I read the first couple pages and bookmarked it for later.
