im just posting this to see wut many think
its like this i believe that religion is just a fight over who has the better imaginary friend
Aye~ God is an image i believe,
created out of man's fears..insecurities...
I feel ya~
To be seduced into complete freedom from truth or any interpretation of it (meaning/purpose) -- where no refined 'real' exists...where there is "nothing" so to speak (rather in our minds..."clear mind") there can arrise...
well we just have to find that out for ourselves...

I disagree.
For one, God's not my imaginary friend. I have quite the resentment against that son of a bitch.

You know, I really think that, given the nature of humans developing urban legends, generating and propogating myths as factual, people seeing what they want to see; and all these other quirks in human psychology, that we could realistically expect to see people inventing and worshipping gods in a universe that actually contained no Godforces whatsoever.
In otherwords, if God did not exist, it would be neccessary for man to invent him.

Depends on what you consider prophecy. Jesus failed on many of the messianic prophecies, hence there being Jews to this day. The messiah was supposed to be a military leader that would ward off the oppressors of Israel. Jesus failed on this account.
Alot is "building code" prophecy. If I follow my building code, amd I fulfilling prophecy?
Others are so vague that the context could be retrofitted to mean a wide array of things after the fact.
There is also the problem of Yeshua and Jesus not being the same person.
I could go on all day.

I believe in more of the metaphysicallity (word?) of man than I do in God.
I believe God is some sort of thing like in Hinduism like Brahmaputra, in that all living things are related on the metaphysical level.
