Posted On: 2003-06-25   Contemplations On God   
God. What is God? Who is he? Well, the first question I should ask is, is he a he as we imagine? To give my opinion, yes. I do believe God is a he, provided he exist.

Here, let me give, what I believe, are some good reasons or arguments to say that God is infact a he. Man portrays God as a male by giving him the attributes associated with a male. This may sound alittle upsetting to some----especially Christians for that fact that I say we (humans) give God attributes. But think about it for one moment. Let's go on the argument that God truly does exists. In such case, he would hardly be boasting of himself to man. He wouldn't be saying that he's all this or all that and I look like this or look like that. Infact, he would be as vague as possible. And when man fist learns of God---this god that is vague, it would be then that man would try to apply some type of attributes to this god so that all humans can have some kind of an idea, imagination and/or understanding of what God is or who he is. It is like hearing for the first time about aliens and ufo's. We automatically picture sometype of fiendish, antennas on the head type of green thing when infact, it could be just the opposite. Humans tend to apply attributes to things we cannot see or understand and thus is burned into our imagination until otherwise proven. And the unfortunate part is, sometimes it is hard to find that proof otherwise. He is the application of our mind. So in the end, God is a he, for we present him as such.

So now that I've given a reason to why I believe God is a he, let me go from there. Now what say you? What is God? Hmmmmmmmmmm?!? Well, since I'm not speaking with you directly therefore not getting an immediate answer, I shall give you my thoughts. This one's a toughy but let me see if I can translate how I feel; notice I DID NOT say, "what I believe". The fact is, I'm not so sure about this but only have speculations.....or "crazy ideas" as some people would say. But let me share 'em. I believe that he is nothing more than a collection of thoughts and ideas of man, therefore, he exists because there is a need for him to exist, a desire for him to exist. It's like......believing in Santa Clause. Every child knows that Santa is indeed real and has a long white beard with a barrel for a gut and rosy cheeks. Santa IS because the ideas of him is kept alive and true and the desire for him to exist is very real...........therefore, he IS.

Now some may argue and say, "But that's a child's fairytale". Granted, it is a sound argument but nevertheless, it is a perfect example. As a child grows up, it is learned that Santa is not so real anymore. This same logic can be applied to God. As man is on his death bed and falls into eternal slumber, what transpires next? Is it possible that we realize, somehow, that there isn't a real and existing God? That God is nothing more than the wishful dreams of man as he is alive? And that wishful dream is alas over now that he has, "grown up"?---(stepping away from life).

Well....If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me. Of course, I am entitled to my opinions as anyone else. And if you noticed, I haven't actually bashed God in any way but simply expressed thoughts contrary to the popular beliefs. Now then, I would love to read your thoughts even if it's to bash me and my written expressions. Just below you can send me any comments or simply give your opinions by having fun with my questionare. And stay tuned to my next article for some more of, "THE BLASPHEMY!"
