You have a smile on your face, but I fear for those who do not keep track of your hands.

I know you write this for entertainment value–Surely this is not your conception of how God is or that He is female. I personally understand the upbringing in Catholicism producing Bible ignorance though. 1/3 of priests are homosexuals due to celibacy requirements forbidding marrying. So how could you get an accurate idea of who God really is from ones who do not know him? If you ever want to know the truth about God– Jehovah’s Witnesses offer to study God’s Word the Bible with people free of charge. You will be happy to find true help for alcoholism and mental illness by coming to know the Creator of the Universe Jehovah. (Proverbs 3:13-18) . . .Happy is the man that has found wisdom, and the man that gets discernment, for having it as gain is better than having silver as gain and having it as produce than gold itself. It is more precious than corals, and all other delights of yours cannot be made equal to it…. Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its roadways are peace. It is a tree of life to those taking hold of it, and those keeping fast hold of it are to be called happy.

Christine this is one of your better posts (don’t take that the wrong way…I enjoy most of your blogs!) I too believe in a god on my own terms…no necessarily structured and absolute. I also don’t believe in confession and absolution. While I don’t have any intention on turning this into a religious debate…I don’t believe in a structured god because I honestly found it very hypocritical..a god that is supposed to love us unconditionally certainly has a lot of conditions for us to live up to..anyway I digress. Great post Christine!

Wow. Strong stuff. How do you know that the Actual God is really as He is and not as we would like Him to be?

Here’s an idea. Why don’t you try finding out about God AS HE ACTUALLY IS, instead of making him up to match your personal subjective preferences.

Unless you are addressing yourself to the Actual God, who really is as He is and not as we would like Him to be, you’re really just playing with a puppet.
