God isn't this man sitting on a cloud.

I often think of this world more as a massively multi-player online roll playing game. The creator/programmer set the rules, designed the setting, and sets the players free to make of it what they will.

That's pretty much how I see God and his relationship to us. He created. Now it's all up to us.

As for seeing God, who's to say that we don't every day? What if God is a rainbow? Maybe that's what God looks like, or the sign he gives us that he's real. Maybe God is the sky, or a raven. Maybe God shows himself as gravity. We can't see gravity, but we obey its law and believe it exists.

Maybe God shows himself as storm clouds or a tornado? Who knows? Maybe God is the sunset, and you've just not recognized him.

I'm quite content with God doing whatever God's doing, and me living my life in this crazy world God created. I don't expect God to pay a lot of attention to my little problems. I'm just one of billions of (possibly) video game avatars...

Hello,
God knows your every thought,he knows it all,its his love and his thought that makes me Billy,just because we get free will does not change the fact that I am an idea turned into physical form.

And the purpose of this forum is to bring a whole lot of different ideas, thoughts, culture's and thinkers together to say their bit
Every part of me and my spiritual body and all the different levels to the Godhead are a thought/idea of God!

Regards Billy and Moggs.
