Assume that you're speaking to someone who has never even imagined a concept such as religion, or supernatural existence. If they were to ask you to explain what God is, how would you explain it in such a way that it equips them to understand?

Sing: What is God? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more.


Or you could say it's a theoretical, sentient, omnipresent, unseen, immesurable force that is responsible for the creation and circumstances of the universe.

You know, that was the first thing that popped into my head when I opened this thread. The first part at least.

god is everything and nothing. it is just a word people use to explain the infinite awesomeness of life and the universe.

life is about running into problems solving those issues in what ever way you can. life is like a game an you make choices and they have outcomes. people like to think god has control over this and i don't think so. i think people have freewill and just to think god will help them do the right thing if they believe in him. god to me is just the world labeled to cause and effect. the big bang happened and the universe was created in a very complex process. even things we cannot explain often just get explained with god. in a way it is god who has made these things they are right to some degree. all cultures have gods and goddesses and all kinds of stories. they are historical artifacts you can certainly learn something from them. i think it is best to remember they are stories of the past and the old world i don't think one should take them to literally. they will certainly give us great insight if we read them and take what we can from each. god is many things its what ever you want it to be everyone will have their own interpretation of god and their savior so just remember to respect other peoples beliefs. faith can be blind so always question your own beliefs.
