" The truth is that God is the force. He is the essence of life. He is pure and undefiled consciousness. He is eternal "
Gandhi
Isn't it a more rational explanation of God
more rational than an authoritarian supreme being?

Gandhiji was a learned man. He was a man of principles and ethics. Thats why he chose non-violence and stood ground till british were forced to leave india. the britishers surruendered to the will of Gandhi and lost a battle without fighting. Is there anyone who had achieved such a feat in modern times. No one.
those who experienced god, can tell truth. Gandhiji just did that. look at the world of bin ladens, saddams, bush and blairs. they cannot even achieve what this great soul achieved 5 decades back peacefully.

Folks, the Christian God that you are talking about is an authoritarian because, "Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and they shall judge the people with just judgment.”. He has the AUTHORITY to judge you, the AUTHORITY to send you to hell, and the AUTHORITY to send you to heaven.

I agree with this definition. Who said God was authoritarian, he is my Father, my counselor, my strenght, my joy, my source of peace, does that sound authoritarian?

God is revealed to us through His word in the Bible. Is it rational to rely on a man's description of God, when you can get it in the Maker's own words?
"And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him."

He has created a PM family of INDIA.
God things will be TO vote for CONGRESS.
WHY?
SMT SONIA ie
Christan - Ms Antonio Maino of ITALY,
whom S/Late Shri Rajeev ie
[son of Indira = daughter of Shri Nehru (hindu)
+and wife of converted Gandhi from MUSLIM ( not real gandhi)]
married and finally GIFTED INDIA with
SHRI RAHUL, Smt PRIYANKA as the
BEST FUTURE PRIME MINISTER OF INDIA
HOW?
SMT SONIA is a white skin gentle lady.
By nature all BLACK SKIN POOR INDIANs
look only at white ( "white PHILIA") and feel them great.
This is true for all INDIAN and Probability for Rajeev also.
Therefore Smt SONIA (Ms Antonio Maino of ITALY) being a "WHITE-SIKIN-LADY from ITALY" is president of "BLACK SKIN CONGRESS"
and She (S capital because she is like a god in congress) will be PM of "BLACK-SKIN-INDIA-AS A WHOLE"
Now RAHUL, PRIYANKE being ideal mixture of all religions ie HINDU, MUSLIM, CHRISTAN, will be the representation of HOLLY GOD. INDIA shall be proud to be gifted with such rear of the rearest mixture and honour THEM PM and Sup. PM of INDIA
