I may be making this a stretch to tie into the DP forum but I’m in the spirituality discussion. I’ve found a certain quality of comfort with God and dealing with my daily existence. Something that plays a part in my misery is the shitty behavior of others, even if it isn’t towards me. I feel disdain towards evil that goes on all over the world. And to think we’re all just a bunch of primates in a chaotic universe without an overseer will make you lose faith in the goodness of life very fast.

If God becomes just a topic of debate to be argued for or against then it has no value, it’s toxic and violent then. What’s real to you? What other people say around the world? We’ve got plenty of people with all the “answers” already, all of them fighting for their voice to be heard. Some claim they know god and know what they want for you, and some say it doesn’t exist at all. God, whether you think they exist or not, wouldn’t be able to be found in any other place than in yourself. So, with depersonalization and all the misery you may experience in your life, if you’ve ever felt like life has no purpose then maybe you should consider looking into God. Not as a belief, but as a journey. God is good.

God is the quiet space between everything else.

Easy to say, of course...

Humans don'r even know themselves to know what God really is.God is seperate from his creation, for example God exists without the space and time we know, because if he did he would be part of creation.You see the word "mind" , I", or "soul" being used everywhere, yet no one can explain what they are.So we don't even properly understand the essence of ourselves.I think people think to much about what God is instead of just looking at his signs.Everything in life that is learned must have a real existence to it, for example all humans know what an apple is.Nobody would have ever been apple to imagine what an apple is or tastes like if there were never any apple in this world.And all cultures and societies in this world have a concept of higher proper.Where did that come from if God would have not commicated his existence through messengers.The argument that humans like to believe in a higher power just to look for support in bad times is not a strong argument.I would better argue that humans do so because God made the human nature to long for him.And nothing comes from nothing, so one could look and argue about how things formed, how life formed etc, but all of it requires something that started it all.
