    KweisJ, what you are describing is so abstract that it's almost neither here nor there whether it even exists or not. If God is just some kind of cosmic force at the root of everything, why would it matter if we call it God or not? What good would praying do? What impact would it have on morality?

    • It seems like you are just calling it God for the sake of having something to call Godukit
    • because morality is rational and human and priority in this sense for GodKwesiJ
    • God is as much a word game as a reality game. its a logic itself interwoven with experience.KwesiJ
    • Well, I can say that we have evolved a certain kind of morality and it has the same implication/ meaningukit
    • You are basically reducing God to nothing in an effort to make his existence plausibleukit
    • there's no room for nihilism in meaningful and substantial existanceKwesiJ
    • i'm reducing God i'm improving its image to explain its presenseKwesiJ
    • sorry typo: NOT reducing god.KwesiJ
    • Just because you don't believe in God, doesn't mean you are a nihilistukit
    • The idea of "meaning" and "purpose" are very human concepts IMO, not necessarily relevant to any kind of larger truthukit
    • truth or realityukit
    • not calling anyone a nihilist i'm saying acknowledging 'meaning' in existance suggests an intellegenct 'God'. the reverse is nihilistic atheism.KwesiJ
    • ....reverse is nihilistic atheism.KwesiJ
    • it si a bit of a word game but becomes closer to the ancient notion of God and gods in human life. i don't think God will go away.KwesiJ
    • ...will go away in future.KwesiJ
