 Creating God or having a God of my understanding?
Whats the difference if there is one?
I have pondered this question for it has been brought up on other recovery sites I belong to. I see the difference in such a question being one of awareness vs. imagination. I have an awareness attuned to the constituencies of what God is. This awareness is reveled in nature and in literature. Both bring me closer to my understanding. Both bring me to a realization. As for creating God, I see that a function of imagination (lack of a better word). A wish to extend ones desires into the realm of mystical proportions. That is to have a God based on want...a want that satisfy ones pleasure or ego. A God that fits neatly within the confines of ones pleasure or within the confining space of ones ego.
Your views are welcome, as I know SR has some very wise people here. I know my thoughts are incomplete but I'm looking forward to some expanded views on this topic. Please share freely.
