Is God the ultimate bigot?
Is God the ultimate bigot?
No, but the people who claimed to speak for him inserted their own bigotries.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world. -- Mahatma Gandhi
People are their own gods.
I remember a quote from you from a different thread:Originally Posted by G L Wilson
You now want to know why God hates so much and whether God is the ultimate bigot.
I didn't think you even believed in God, but surely you do believe in yourself. What God is bothering you?
The comment that I hated all people was made flippantly. I think in answer to a charge of antisemitism if I remember right.
In answer to your new question, God doesn't bother me - people do.
It's mutual.
Gods are bigots since there are too many gods, and they warring. Gods created in men's images and natures have a lot of bigotry in their behavior, for the Gods we have invented do not rise above and beyond our own images and conceptions.
If you read scriptures, whether Hindu or Biblical or any other you will find your gods constricted into your own prejudices.
Is there something called Universal God? And that God can rise above your personal God's statures
I think that a universal god would be universally spiteful.
Rather like the Government causing dissension amongst the unions really but then I'm sure the hue and cry over a universal union would be just as loud. You can't have it both ways.
Before sunlight can shine through a window, the blinds must be raised - American Proverb
Divide and conquer? I don't think that I will be conquering anyone today.
The Universal God is not a personal God like any Hindu or Biblical or Islamic Gods. It is beyond worldly attributes and has little to do with the ones we associate with any worldly phenomena or scriptural descriptions.
It is you and me and the rest of the world threaded by that spirit and this is not a material or anything; it is sheer consciousnesses manifest through our consciousness. This state is beyond the attributes like Good or Bad, the sacred and the profane. God is just word and I am not talking about it.I am talking about the eternal truth beyond science and religion. This is a very subtle issue I have yet to discover for myself
Nothing will convince the convinced, of that I am quite sure.
This is called bigotry, the bigotry of the theist and of the atheist and both of these followers are in a quandary, lost and muffled.
I believe that we are not at a stage of conclusion and if we conclude we will be lost into the world of darkness.
Death is the end. I cannot say that I am looking forward to it but then I cannot say that I am not.
Death is the end or beginning is yet to be explored. You cannot say what death is and your conclusion is based on what medical science has said and science is still in its infancy when it comes to explaining some of the profound truths.
Death is an unknown domain and you do not the zone you will visit after it.
Do not confuse yourself with the nonsense you have inherited in society through education or learning from your near and dear ones.
Go beyond these delimiting parameters to understand your limitless powers.
