Re: What I believe
I believe that a distinction needs to be noticed re the 'God' concept:
For Xians of multitudinous individual stripes - the idea of a "personal-God" is a root of the orthodoxy.
Others may use a similar name to 'God' (the Indian continent postulates a pantheon of Gods), endowing each with notably human qualities/ +and- yet all the while acknowledging a concept of The Absolute - and clearly 'saying' about That: "The Absolute is without attributes, is beyond knowing/not-knowing, being/non-being etc."
ie: beyond our illusionary world of Opposites {also implicitly recognized as 'illusionary'}.
It is within this Personal God\ufffd idea, where mischief begs to be done: "God hates the ___. God loves the ___. I Talk to God." yada yada. God (here) is "assigned attributes" by every overheated preacher and demagogue politico using the simplistic ideas to acquire more Power.
Personally, I find the thought that, 'God is within all things' idea sustainable without logic-fault or dance, or absurd ideas of proving the Ineffable. It hasn't caught on in the land where the real Deity is [Moi + $$]. I wonder whyever not?
