Who is God?
One thing I've become aware of in these conversations is that TEDsters have many different opinions on who God is. Hopefully this conversation will become a collection of those viewpoints.
Please don't attack other people's ideas. If you want, ask questions for clarification. But be respectful.
And tell us, in your opinion - who is God?

I wish to have an ultimate theory
(or God, or prime mover, or whatever)
that explains or covers everything,
then it should cover everything.
You know?
If God is good, how can he/she be
a God if he/she doesn't encompass
bad? Or evil? Even of the worst kind?
I he/she is being which thinks, shouldn't
he/she be able to "think" thoughts of
rocks? Atoms? Cows? Dogs?
You know?
Shouldn't he/she be able to BE a dog?
If it is energy, how matter comes
into picture? Is it not part of God
too? If my theory explains observable
how does it cope with unobservable?
If true "nothing" doesn't exist, where
am I getting the idea of it?
Shouldn't my God be at least slightly mad?
When someone asks something like
"is Big Bang real?", "who is God?",
"is there this God and where is he or she?",
"is it really truth that there is
nothing but energy and space?",
looking back at the path I traveled so far,
all I can do is smile.
Words are powerful, young Jedi,
but they are not that powerful.
That is what I think.
