true beleive that is all u get from god the satisfaction of beleiving in something that 99.999...% of huumans need to get along with: something to look up to
for ancient civilisations,god was always used as a way of explaining stuff they couldnt understand ie recovering from illness,the sun rising etc etc etc but as mankind becomes more sophisticated god is needed less and less as we can now scientifically explain most things.
god is wherever you were made to believe it is. I was made to believe that it was omnipresent. But then I grew up, and I realized that it was only in the mind of people who had a religion forced into their head when they were kids.
Landie the point being I am agreeing with your statement that 'he is wherever you believe he is'. But apart from that there is very little point in any of the answers above. This question really has no answer.
I live next to an Ocean, a forest, the most beautiful blue sky, a mountain over which I can see a castle, lush green vegetation, livestock etc etc
I wake every morning and look out of my window at the beauty of it and think to myself - it is easier to believe in God than to Not believe in God. Something must have created it.
