The "Truth" is within mans reach, yet if man would only surrender and allow the "Truth" to enter the inner heart!

"God is within man - man is within God"
This is the mystery that man must solve, to be called a "True Human Being".

The "me" must be surrendered, and the "One" that truly shines will shine through!

When the seeking stops, then comes the compromise. Then comes the understanding, that there can be only "one". This is when self-realization begins! God then speaks to man, and man then understands. Surrender takes place.

because man hears a lot of voices and noise that he does not hear God anymore......
if only man would listen - not to the thunders - but to silence. God is there.

I've always left that door open - every now and again I'll look to the sky and say "hey god, if you're out there...here I am! I'm listening!" and you know what? I hear nothing. I listen for the still, small voice, and I hear nothing that's not a product of my own mind. I meditate on a regular basis, and there's only me. I've read every religous text of every variety I could get my hands on, tried many different paths with an open mind and heart, and the only reasonable conclusion I can come to is that I'm here, I'm alone, and I'd better be okay with that, because there's nothing I can do about it.
If any of the myriad of gods are constantly seeking man, they're sure not trying very hard.

Because we discovered the laws of the universe and liberated ourselves from the superstitions of the past, we no longer need to see the world and it's glory through the eyes of neolithic man, who couldn't explain thier environment except by the use of complex mythology based on the knowledge available to a mostly illiterate world where events were magical and explained in simple terms like that of a supreme creator.
Now we can measure and have the tools available to explain our place in the greater scheme of things and God has become irrelevant and superceeded.

No, women people shouldn't worship adult adult males as gods. while God created the 1st lady, he pronounced in Genesis 2:18 that could desire to make a "helper" or a "supplement" for him. Ephesians 5:22-25 says that the spouse could be in subjection to her husband. notwithstanding this did not mean that the husband could dominate her, as Ephesians additionally says that the husband could love his spouse as his very own physique and could feed and cherish her, and cope together with her as Christ treats the congregation. A spouse could admire her husband and he additionally should likewise admire and love her.

Why would God have any need to "search"???
It is only Man's hidding, and using the search as a way to hide that has it appearring as if God is looking for him (us).
Attempts at ennumerating, naming, and otherwise trying to make sense out of "God" does the Human create a need to be searched for.

If you constantly seek God, you will live a life with a very tough goal. Then if God seeks man, well I don't see how such a being, where He to exist, would have any trouble doing so...

Because we are human and nonperfect while God is always perfect. We may forget him sometimes and give into what the world wants us to do but God is always there waiting for us to return to Him.

Actually you have it backwards. Man has constantly been seeking God and that is why so many Gods have been created. You have Odin, Zeus and many many others.

Don't know, but if you pray or meditate you will know that God/Goddess is there with you. What one does after that is the real problem.

Because they think that they can run their lives better than God can?
