My G.O.D. Wrote Your Bible

 

My G.O.D. Wrote Your Bible

   Those words sound like fighting words, but hopefully if you choose to read on no words about a god will ever induce you to fight.  Most of us have our own individual concept of god.  This is mine and I hope you will like it.

Grand

Omnipotent

DNA

   G.O.D. or GOD is to me an acronym, not a spiritual being.    It is the DNA or system of The Entire Universe.  Not the DNA of any living thing, but of The Universe.  I actually don’t know if what we call The Universe is a living thing and since I’m agnostic it remains to me a question.  A DNA is a system, so we are talking about the system, or systems that control and perhaps ruled over the creation of The Universe.  It doesn’t work without systems or rules.  It doesn’t come into being, evolve or continue to exist without consistent rules.  They are required in so many ways.  For instance, without the system of centrifugal force (mass, inertia, gravity) ruling their orbits, heavenly bodies would have no predictable paths.  Collisions would be common and irregular extreme environments on the various planets would not sustain life.  Location of planets and atoms would be random.  The system, GOD, is eternal, or at the very least, throughout known history, we have seen no changes in the systems, only a better understanding of them.  The acronym GOD is an attempt to remove the rationalization required to hate or murder anyone in the name of God and to create a god that does not offend reason or require us to suspend our disbelief.   Science studies these rules and systems, trying to understand them.  It is a never ending study.

   Let’s return to the meaning of the acronym.  Grand implies immense size or importance.  Omnipotent implies power and control over all.  We like to add knowledge of all events past, present and future.  I think that concept humanizes omnipotence and I am not ready to humanize a creator.  It seems obvious to me that there is nothing human about that which controls or created the Universe.  DNA is a complex system (and luckily it also begins with “D”).  So, GOD is a system or systems that control The Universe.  Do you see a problem with that or anything that seems unreasonable about the idea?  You studied scientific systems in high school and before.  You have lived with them since you had awareness and before.

   I claimed at the beginning of this blog that “My G.O.D. wrote your bible.”  It did.  In this amazing working system all things have room to exist.  Bibles, books, bikes, baseballs and galaxies … all are within the system.  Hands wrote those bibles and those hands were within the system.  The word “My” in the quote doesn’t belong there.  I put it there to get your attention.  I don’t claim ownership.  The GOD of the acronym wrote all bibles and bibles are obvious mythology.  One bible is as true as the next.  Mythology falls within the system.  Nothing is outside of it.

   Are there assertions in this blog that you don’t agree with?  I wrote it as a reminder of how friendly and necessary the operating system is.  When you pray, is anyone listening?  Part of me says, no.  But part of me says there is awareness and a spirit within you that does hear and it may go beyond that.  Since I’m an agnostic, it remains a question.  Thinking about reality is wonderful entertainment.  Trust it.  It is probably why you are here.  We live in a world surrounded by many untruths.  Attaining more accurate awareness requires questioning our beliefs.  Faith need not apply.
