How the concept of god has developed.........?

Question

I had no faith in temple Gods. Though i feel nature and find God there, in the jungle...in the sea.....on the top of the hills.......on snow......The reason is i have never seen God personally but i saw nature very closely. One day my daughter refused to join second year of engineering i put my hed down and remember my late father in law and said pl look at your grand son and help her ..the second moment she said a' iam ready to go there""" i realised i had seen my father in law so i recollected ..in the same way many such people who were there on eath and now people regard them as their God after their death so they pray for them (GOd)...I welcome to share views in this respect...

Answer 1

what the hell..

Answer 2

There is no proof that God even exists.I search my mind for a God concept and come up empty handed.In other words I never say or hear "that's God working in me" at a core Psyche level.Seeing God in nature doesn't add up to me either.If it's big or beautiful it's God?There is no logic to that.I don't think that the God concept is innate.If you have a group of humans on a desert island will they create a God and worship it because it is a function of the human psyche?It's looking more and more like a repressive scam to me.

Answer 3

i dont know about praying your father-in-law, because your father-in-law was created by God, which doesnt make him God at all, he was born with sin, and wasn't perfect. To be God you would have to live a perfect life, as in not commiting sin. Now is a good time to start doing some research on religions, for example christianty, i say christianty because im a chrisitan and believe its the right way, overall its upto you to decide.

Answer 4

Simple:

humans evolved from apes. developed opposable thumbs and the ability to reason. couldn't explain natural phenomena such as lightning & thunder, eclipses, changes of seasons, etc. and attributed it to something greater than their understanding; i.e., a God. or Gods.

it's like trying to understand how an engine works, then giving up and saying "a magic ghost must have created this."

as for what happened prior to big bang, well, that's up for debate. personally, i think a magic ghost created everything.

Answer 5

God is a Germanic name for deified reference ("reverence") to the unitary concept of deity —most commonly described as an intelligent consciousness of infinite spiritual substance that underlies or permeates through the whole natural and physical universe, and is therefore said to be both its "creator and ruler." As the supreme deity, God is worshipped, and "his" favour is courted by believers, who claim to have a direct or mediated relationship with "him." As such, separate cultures have developed distinct and particular concepts of faith and worship, which are often foundational to particular ethnic belief systems and traditions.

Concepts of God can vary widely, despite the use of the same term for them all, and these conceptual differences are the fundamental distinctions between various religious definitions. According to monotheism, pantheism or panentheism, or (in critical context) the supreme deity of henotheistic religions, God may be conceived of in various degrees of abstraction: as a powerful, human-like, supernatural being, or as the deification of an esoteric, mystical or philosophical category, the Ultimate, the summum bonum, the Absolute Infinite, the Transcendent, or Existence or Being itself, the "ground of being," the "monistic substrate," that which we cannot understand, etc.

According to "universalist" views, God is available to all, though often only through particular methods and traditions. Ethnic religions may believe in a "supreme being" but may hold sharply ethnocentric views of God's "nature" and God's "plan." Some may regard any certain conceptions and traditions of worship as false or "blasphemous" —for example the use of anthropomorphic mythology and iconographic depictions of God may be regared as mere "symbolism" or else as idolatry.

One topic which receives a great deal of attention today in academic circles is that of relativism. If it is agreed that God is universally-available to all beings a problem arises. How can we say that God is one when the agreed-upon values of that "God" are different from one culture to the next based on the experience of that culture and their sacred texts. In other words, the culture from which a given god-concept comes cannot be minimized, as this is an insult to the history of that tradition. For example, to say that the Jewish God and the Christian God are the same is to minimize the cultural frameworks in which those concepts operate. It must therefore be borne in mind that when a univeral view of God is embraced, the nuances between cultures and religions must be maintained

Answer 6

I didnt really follow what you were trying to portray, however I did catch the part that you have found God in nature and that is definately true. God is everything. We are God, nature, the universe, everything.

Answer 7

I can relate, totally !!! My two neices, passed-away... And, I dont put them ,or their spirits, before my God,,, but I do talk to them all the time.......them, and my ex-sister-in-laws, who both passed, within a year of eachother.. I'll tell you a couple of for instances: First & foremost, I agree with you about feeling close to God, out in nature.....I use to walk on the beach, in the winter, when there wasn't a "Soul", in sight, and just talk to God... Footprints in the Sand, that was me & God.... So, Nature is a form, of God, He created it all & us !! But, about the spirit world.......There are such things, as spirits.......And I do believe, loved ones will come & let you know there around us... For instance, my neice who passed away, was born on my dads birthday... And, I had my music on , while thinking & remembering it was my dads birthday... That I should call him, when right after I said that a song, my sister dedicated to her girls, came on the radio....I broke down, crying & remembered imediately that it would have been my neices, 24th, birthday, had she lived passed 19. And I said "Happy Birthday", to her, and told her to go looking for my Aunt Joyce, who was my dads twin, and told her it was also her birthday!!! I believe, until "Judgement-Day", that God allows, people, souls, to reign, on earth, or heaven, until, Judgement day... I had another time, during my devorce, I was in my kitchen doing dishes, when I heard a really loud bang !! It was a very heavy clock, I had propped-up against gravity, that had to have been pushed !! There was no scientific, way this clock could have fallen against gravity, with such a bang !! I was very scared when I came to the only conclusion, I could think of: and that was that my ex-husband's dad (also deseast), was quite a tempermental man, was not happy, I was devorcing his son... and that was his way of letting me know, it...I'd been talking to my kids that morning about how I had to go to the court house,again, to do more, paper work on the devorce, to make sure to take their keys,.....it was after I mentioned that, that the clock, had to have been pushed....Another, time, I was coming out of the bathroom, all alone,again.... when in front of my eyes, one of my heaviest remotes, flew, off of the end of my couch, right in front of my eyes... Sent chills down my spine!!! I had it flat side down. in the middle of my couch arm-rest, which was a very wide arm rest......My first response was too look at the window, to see if it was opened, that maybe a breeze may have done it.... My blinds were not moving....and my kids hadn't even sat on the couches, at all before school that morning.....I believe if Angels help people, why cant dead loved ones, come around, too........ I totally believe, their all around us, at all times...

I barely understood any of that, were you trying to say your father in law is your god?!?

Answer 10

God does not exist! God is the scapegoat of America. He is a false hope and a figment of pure imagination. Besides if he was in fact real, I would still have a best friend!

Answer 11

The people who became god were good people for example take the example of Jesus (christian) or Buddha or various hindu god (ram, krishna, shiva...), n other religion. They devoted their life to mankind and did the things for the betterment of human in terms of moral values.

Well, there are many things that people cant answer right now.. for those questions they look at the god and say that it is the work of god.
If you cant explain how we were in earth then ...the answer is god made it.
Why that girl is so beautiful...god made her in free time..
Why do earthquake occur..god wanted to...
Why.something is so..god wanted so..
