Yes, I have a realistic view of God, my Heavenly Father.
You could say He is an architect, working on the Human Race.
He is the Creator - the Father of all things.
believe in Him - 100%!

I was thinking, if I was God, what would I think? Obviously, I'd know everything and be able to do anything. I have all time at my command, so there is no such thing as past, present, or future. I have all things at my command, so there is no difference between any energy or matter. There would be no beginning nor end to my existence. The 3D (4D with time) universe would be as interesting to God as the 1D or maybe 2D universes are interesting to us. And I can't identify with a line.
All this makes things hard to get into God's head, but it gives us ideas. For example, God couldn't be bored enough to bother creating us, since there would be no way we could possibly interest Him enough compared to the incredible vastness of boring universe beyond Earth. God would be like a solitary animal in that he'd have no intrinsic need for community: God has no needs. Similarly, since love is a facet of communal living and God is a solitary being, God would neither require, desire, or offer love. Neither generosity nor cruelty makes sense for such a being either.
If there is a God, we are totally irrelevant to His interests, such that there may as well not be a God. Neither the earth nor the sun nor our experiences are the center of the universe, nor has anything we do import overall. Life as it arose on Earth would be by accident and then later evolution, and like a very minor glitch in our software God might correct the error if He notices, but we're such an insignificant flaw in the universal code that we're not likely to do much at all.

I hope we all do even if it's different. God as far as I see couldn't give a rat's potato as to what we do, yet I still believe and worship God. I don't think I can begin to understand the true nature of such a force and I certainly don't think God spends any effort instructing this mud ball's population as to behavior. Just look up in the sky if you can see the stars from where you are, you must feel it too. Vast, beyond comprehension; yet still some fellows got it all wrapped up in a box. It's all about us and God eh. Well we all like a story and we've all got one to tell, the nature of God is one of the best there is; but who speaks for God is God alone. God as best I understand hasn't spoken in a while, or perhaps the select few who claim to have the inside pipe to the One wouldn't mind if some one else was privy to the Divine moment God gave out instruction. Yes I'm some what cynical about the Lord over All Creation's personal relationship with us but I can not stop believing in what I know to exist and I won't stop my worship of God even if I never understand; I don't need to know.

Well, you have managed to ask two entirely different questions. I'll try my best...
Cynical God? A god who has a jaded view of everyone and everything that He has created? Sounds like the angry, jealous Jehovah of the old testament. We who are gnostic call Jehovah="Satan".
Architectural God(i.e. "Realistic" God)? This is kind of a question for the Deists who believe that God just wound up the Universe like a clock and now we're just experiencing the world/universe winding down toward "Judgment Day". When God has chosen his disciples, I pray that you will have been among the Chosen. Iam ur AMI UC Eagle.

i grew to become into raised very non secular, and spent the final 10 years very atheist, so i've got been at the two extremes. yet i've got had some reports at the instant that have brought about me to think again issues. i think of i've got settled, for the 2nd, on one among those pantheism, despite if i in my opinion like Buddhism besides. it particularly is humorous; i did not think of i grew to become into all that cynical as an atheist, yet now i'm thinking I kinda grew to become into. existence wasn't empty, in line with se, yet I truthfully sense lots greater finished now that i've got ordinary my spirituality. it particularly is all approximately looking your individual direction to fact, so despite works best for you is the ideal middle floor. i in my opinion think of there are a million diverse trouble-free the thank you to comprehend fact, and the greater of them you learn and view, the greater finished photograph of fact you have.
