the Problem with God II

The problem with “God” is that in seeking to understand God we define him and believe that what God is can be constrained by our label. Most of us are humble enough to acknowledge that there is more to existence that us.  There must be more creative intention that what is produced by human consciences.  And in effort to find greater or even some thing similar to human capacity, we anthropomorphize EVERYTHING. But somehow after the years, and years of reducing things to us, does it seem that its getting harder to believe there is more than us?  Do we still need God? But which God do we need?  The one the we created with our attributes or the one that has been and always will be.... MORE.    

The force, the system, the power, person and intellect that is God will always be more than we perceive.  This is why seeking and studying and questioning God is as natural as seeking, studying and questioning our parents.  One a biological source the other a spiritual source.
