Title: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like? Post by: seattlenonsmoker on October 02, 2014, 06:32:49 AM Whether or not you believe in G-d, what mental picture do you get when you think of the concept? I'll go first...
I see the Big Bang. And you? Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like? Post by: Vod on October 02, 2014, 07:10:56 AM God is a dot on the wall.
Until I learn to paint, it will always be there. But eventually, intelligent people learn to paint, and it disappears. Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like?

I don't believe in god but I always picture 'him' just like he is depicted as a bearded and angry old man. Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like?

Post by: lepirate on October 02, 2014, 07:16:59 PM I spoke to an actively christian person yesterday (yep, they are rare nowadays in Sweden), and she explained God not as some dude on a cloud, but rather as some kind of invisible power that lives within all of us and can give us strength or help us.
So according to her, "God" doesn't look like anything. Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like?

Post by: BADecker on October 02, 2014, 08:48:37 PM God is a spirit. God is spiritually seen. As a spirit, there is no physical look to God. Only the people who acknowledge him are able to see him spiritually. No way to describe the look.

When I order coffee the girl at the counter says "Would you like it with cream and sugar?" I say, no just black like my soul... She giggles Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d...

I don't know what God looks like. Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like? Post by: C10H15N on October 03, 2014, 04:38:58 PM You. Since god is a construct of your mind, you are god.
Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like? Post by: dank on October 03, 2014, 06:48:54 PM God is all, everything, the totality of existence.
In the highest form, god is a spaceless point of conscious energy. A singular point of infinite love and light, beholding a feeling of more love than the happiest moment on your life times 1000. When one experiences complete egodeath, their consciousness inputs all frequencies of the universe at once. Just as all waves of light combined make white light, all dimensions of the universe together form an infinitely bright white light of consciousness, love. It is the most beautiful experience the universe has to offer. Title: Re: Whether or not you believe in G-d... What does She/It/He look like?
