Is God secular ?

Answer 1

A secular government is supposed to be neutral to religious ideologies in its policies.. Wikipedia says secular ideology means non-religious / agnostic / atheist ideology... But if your question means by secular - a neutrality to religious boundaries - one is impelled to agree... but one would have to ponder if you mean anti religious / agnostic / atheist etc by the secular principle...

After all God created Man in different colours and other features, endowed them with the capacity to communicate in different languages, dress, dance, sing in different ways... and similarly allowed them to glorify Him in different ways...

If you accept God in principle, you can well expect Him to be neutral to all religions...

For though obviously God - as He is perceived by most religions (except ones like Budhism and Jainism which may not mention of a God) we know - is all-knowing, all-encompassing, all-powerful and all-merciful and should be expected to have inspired all these divergent phylosophies of Godhood... You can not use the word God without caring for the meaning that goes with it in religious parlance..

Since logically we can expect Him to have inspired different people in different periods of time to evolve different approaches to reach Him (what we call the religions) going by the similarity of their description of Godhood, one can not assume that He would be secular in the context of atheist or agnostic perceptions...

But He could definitely be expected to be neutral to the religions accepting whatever way people adopt to reach Him so long as the people are not evil and imitate His own qualities of mercy and love...

Answer 2

The answer depends on your perception of God. If you restrict God to particular religious notion, then God is not Secular. Otherwise God is Secular. By the way what exactly you understand the word God?

Answer 3

of or relating to the worldly or temporal -Merriam Webster says that secular has to do with the world. Jesus did come to this world, didn't he? I think that the term secular has changed over the years to mean something totally different. We so ofter want to draw the line between sacred and secular. I attend a Christian college named Kuyper. Abraham Kuyper is a Dutch Reformer who made his mark by whipping that line away.

I agree with him. There is no line between sacred and secular. Christ came to the world, he became a part of it and dwelt here on earth.

Yes he was secular/in the world and still cares deeply for the world.

Answer 4

No need of secular about the GOD. Because GOD should be in our good and also in bad thing.

Answer 5

God may be secular or not, only God knows, but India is definitely secular.

Answer 6

Yes. And all His holy Messengers.(Bhagwans) were secular *** spiritual too. Secular means this- wordly. Spiritual means the other-worldly. God is secular because, to us, He is This- Worldly. Always attentive to us, here, in this- world.

Answer 7

I always picture him as more human shaped with a big white beard. But secular would be great, like a big smiley face.

Answer 8

i think The GOD is a natural super power...soul of the universe and nature treats every entity in the universe as equal....

so The GOD is secular....

Answer 9

No. To believe so is to purposely blind yourself to all the possiblities that God has created. Religion was created by man not God. God merely wishes us to love him as we loves us. God is Love. Is love secular?

Answer 10

In terms of being neutral in religious matters? Yes, God is. That is, if God as a force exists.

It is the perspective of humans that makes us think that God is on a particular side, existent or non-existent. It is human text that tries to speak for God.
