Thoughts about God

God is, to me, an intangible concept created by humans to represent the highest levels of love and altruism we might attain.  Christian life has devloped to help people achieve this.

Immortality, heaven and hell are accretions to this concept that, for many, strengthens faith in things unproven.  I believe my life is finite.  I strive to love my fellow humans while I live with no thoughts of a hereafter. I don’t know if there is a hereafter, nor do I care.

God is not finite in my theology.  God does nothing tangible.  What God does for people is to insprie them to do something.  Prayer then helps people to do what we pray for God to do.
