Believers are constantly saying impossible things of God.

A nice little outburst on "I belive the view of the Christian God". Now lets say that what the Christians say about god in fact only has a small grain of thruth in it and the more ignorant they are the further they understand the truth. From my point of view there is something to get about god and losing your ego seem to be a common theme in all religons. But sorry from my point of view god knows everything. How can he/she/it not now everything about you. You are connected to he/she/it but maybe you can't feel the connection. Every soul is like a neuron in god brain. A part of the whole. And even the animals have a soul. I don't belive god is separate from the creation. God is the creation and everything else that is. All is one. Thank you for existing and changing god. God would not be the same without you. Above is only my view and ignore it if you do not like it. Love a Soulbrother. Namaste.edit on 9-2-2012 by apushforenlightment because: spellchecking

i'm of the belief that all consciousness is a fracture of The Creator's consciousness, so that we are all reflections of 1 tiny fractal of The Creator.....so that "he" experiences "him"self and all "his" possible creations THROUGH us.

You make quite a few general, sweeping statements now don't you? "Believers say this. Believers say that. They believe this and that." How would you know? Have you met all two billion of them? I am a "Believer" and I don't agree with most, if not all of your wildly speculative assumptions. I am a lover of my own Liberty so I would do nothing to impede your Liberty. I have no problems with athiests or agnostics as believing in any religion or deity or having no beliefs is a matter of personal choice and I respect that and their religion or lack thereof. My concience is my church and I can be expected to do no less than follow my concience. I believe God is Love and Truth and that is what I worship Him as which is my inalienble right to do. Just as it is your right not to worship any deity so lets just leave it as a matter of personal choice.

You are stating your own unproven beliefs as if they are facts. . I'm sorry but as you rail against these religious people you are guilty of the same exact thing. And according to my beliefs, which is Christianity, God does know what its like to be human because he was human. If God exists why do people think they would be able to understand him according to human logic despite the fact he would be have to be infinitely more intelligent than we are? I thank God we humans can not understand him because if he did go by human logic it would be as flawed as yours. No offense but the anger coming out of this post is just a symptom of wounded pride and insecurity. No you are not the center or authority of the universe and just because you can't understand, explain, or control it does not make it fantasy. And I would love to hear how Jesus is immoral. But my guess is that you think God is unfair because his existence would mean there is such thing as absolute truths and like a teenager rebelling against his parents, you think you are above such things. Well you are not.

or eating or dying or... anything about physical existence. Now you know why the universe exists.. for the spiritual to experience the corporeal.

I've always wondered about it. We have all been told that man was made in God's image, and I've always made Christians very angry at me, about asking some questions about God.
So, ok, if we were made in God's image, then he has a mouth, right?
Why do animals have mouths? To eat with, and if you eat, you have to digest food, and if you digest food, you have to go to the toilet. So, if God has a mouth, he has to go to the toilet, isn't that so?
Animals evolved sensing organs around their faces to locate food, that is why animals have eyes, noses, ears in close proximity of the mouth. So, mankind couldn't really have been made into the image of God, could he?
When you ask those kinds of questions, you really start to hear them growling, or finding all sort of excuses.
So, why even say that man was made in God's image, when he was not?
