Do you ever wonder if God is actually unwell?

[Honza]

We all wonder how it all started. Why we are here and where we are going. Do you ever consider that the reason is unfortunate? Maybe God could not help Himself. Maybe life started because God broke down.

Maybe something happened which God couldn't help. I often wonder if things are as they should be or if an error slipped into the system and forced the issue.

Perhaps those whose perceptions of God have been propagated to the masses were not pure when they wrote their man-made scriptures and stories about God. One cannot rule out that possibility.

Exactly. It is like something is not right.

There is a teaching, for sure, that God did not exactly create this place -
(Throw out the Bible Story), cuz, c'mon, why would He make such a psycho planet, it was said.

That the power of thought is so powerful that there was someplace this crazy thought (from who, I dunno):
"Wonder what it would be like not to be in Heaven and in this wonderful place?"
And 'Shazam' - here is this Illusion or Dream we are all a part of.

And when we wake up out of the Dream (not wake up from the Dream, exactly -OUT of it),
the entire Universe as we know it... disappears.

Jesus' awareness, apparently, was 'outside of this place', as in, he knew it was only made of dreamstuff --
this is why he could manipulate matter so easily....isn't that what we do in our dreams? Cuz they aren't real.

Just sayin' - this is not a teaching many are aware of, I know.
Turns ancient ideas on their head!

It's interesting that you should propose such a possibility.

In Dr. Michael Newton's book, "Journey of Souls", those who recall the in-between period between lives during hypnotic regression have stated something similar. Reportedly, there were creators-in-training and Newton suggests that particular worlds may be the creation of not-so-perfect creators-in-training very much along the dream-line concept that you have suggested.

I am definitely not ruling out that possibility.

However, as I have said before, I also question whether everything written in traditional scriptures is really pure inspiration.

Love Dr. Newton -have his books, have listened to youtubes, so good.

I have no question myself about scripture not all being inspired.
So many made up stories from such a limited perspectives...as I have said often
these people didn't even know where the sun went when it disappeared.
But, they knew
God was mad and punishing them and that slitting the throat of a sweet lamb would appease Him?
Uh-huh, right.

Where are the Volcanoes so we can toss the virgins in? Same thing. Coo-coo!

I agree completely !

I know, right? They thought a comet was a chariot in the sky..but now let's believe every word and
brow beat other people that don't believe it...as if it's written in stone -right.
Gosh I'm glad I woke up!
Doesn't mean I love God less - it means I love and understand His True Nature more!!!
Cuz, 'Bible believers' will then say, I'm going against 'the Word' and say I'm going to hell,
Oh my goodness. But, then again, oh well....

So to keep on topic - no, God is not unwell
...but someone is.

It would be interesting to see if Dr. Newton had been influenced by Mormon beliefs.
