if you could create your own new god, please describe it?

Question

i've been deeply moved by my experience of browsing

http://www.godchecker.com/
Godchecker.com - Your Guide To The Gods. Mythology with a twist!

It is a project to profile the gods of the human species. A dossier is included, along with a little section called 'vital statistics', where you can compare each god objectively.

I am amazed. it gives me such a strong feeling of understanding humans' belief in supernatural beings. having them all there together on one site, with descriptions that err on the side of the comical and are refreshingly devoid of over enthusiastic reverence (that so often seems hollow) ... i have such a feeling of knowing, for sure, that there is no one true god. there are thousands, as it says.

and don't we humans have fantastic imaginations! the demons are way better than in any pc game!

also, note the common theme of gods being immortal and/or allowing us to be immortal. i think this is the basis of religious belief.

a collection of videos of Richard Dawkins' efforts to enlighten religious believers:

also read these three and you will perhaps begin to appreciate the significance of examining religion in this way:

Answer 1

It would be Fred, the God of atheism. He would be the first God whose followers don't believe in him.

Answer 2

It would be a benign small creature sent by God to help me find bargains, do household chores, cook delicious food, pass under all green lights, etc etc. Looks like a cross between Martha Stewart and a bichon frise. Also small enough to carry in my shirt pocket.

Answer 3

specific, the term god does cover a good sort of floor. devil is defined as a results of fact the "god of the international". possibly this place grew to become into given to him via God whilst mankind fell after being deceived via him in the backyard. Now the different notice for God is the single and in elementary terms real and residing God. i think that the father, Son, and the Holy Spirit are one God as a results of fact as quickly as I sought him i stumbled on him and that i comprehend that he's the best Shepard who laid down his existence for the sheep. i comprehend he's the Shepard as a results of fact he supplies me relax and peace for my soul, and there is not something like this which you may think of! i visit describe how i think approximately him in some words: The dad or mum and relax giver of my soul proving that he's my Shepard. he's the peace giver of my soul proving that he's the Prince of Peace. He illumines my heart and innovations by the Holy Bible proving that he's the residing notice and the sunshine of the international. I see his sweetness and distinctiveness in the international via the animals that he created. in simple terms as God created each and each area of have a objective, so he did for mankind. Theirs comes certainly and our comes certainly too however the existence of our inner being can in elementary terms ensue supernaturally.

yeah praise Him who sits on the throne and praise to the lamb who was slain for us

Answer 5

Excellent site. I have to bookmark it. (Yes, it's possible even to forget such an easy URL.)


My god would be Quistis, goddess of mythology, because mythology just isn't self-aware these days.

Answer 6

Thanks for the chance, but I really can't top the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

And thanks for the reference.

One suggestion to resolve all this is that if there is a God, He has been revealing Himself to His people since the start, He just does so in ways that a particular people can best understand. Is that sacrilege? I dunno. It seems to have a ring of truth to it, simply considering how He revealed himself at different times within the Jewish and Christian scriptures.

Answer 7

pocket sized , available upon request, more like a genie in the bottle with never ending wishes granted and only available to myself and no maintenance whatsoever (like praying going to church etc..)

Answer 8

There is one true God

Answer 9

If I could create Him, then I would be G-d; not Him!
G-d alone creates. All else duplicates, copies or imitates.
Not even satan can create life. He can only kill, steal & destroy.

Answer 10

nothing I create could be better than Jesus Christ so why try?
