It's misleading and dangerous for anyone to think that their concept of God and the nature of God as being one in the same.

To many preachers have used their God concept to manipulate others. It is quite dangerous.

My argument is that we all share the same perception. And that there is a purpose and reason and a validity for that perception.

I completely agree.

As the great pantheist Einstein has said,
"The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity."

Of course we know Einstein was pertaining to Buddhism.

Quite right, and As Studs Turkel said:

"I like quoting Einstein. Know why? Because nobody dares contradict you. "

Haha, a witty quote.

But I have to disagree. Einstein's mythical figure in anything outside physics is only a recent development. At the height of Einstein's fame in the 1910's, many Christians hated Einstein for his bold statement of his belief in a non-personal God (or his non-belief in a personal God, if you'd like it that way); many people disagreed with Einstein's theological belief. That was before he was Christianized.

And who else can you quote on pantheism except Einstein & Spinoza?

Being the first to resort to the word "Bullshit" I conclude you suck at debating.

I will not intertube fight with your ranting.

Wow, all my points have been destroyed, fantastic, this has got to be the best day ever, thinking that you've won a debate or are the better debater because I used the term bullshit proves that I am always wrong.

This is because humans demand knowledge even if it is unsatisfactory, unproven, or just false, this is why the idea of higher beings are created, to explain what we don't currently know, I disagree with the fact that this is done, as it can just end curiousity, the only fact it doesn't is because humans also compartmentalise and ignore that they are believing two contradictory things.

And think about it really, all my youtube submissions are stupid Anime Music Videos, If you've got better things to do than bug an AMV editor, just go do them.

Hey everybody, go watch my AMVs, give me a low score maybe God will keep them 5-star anyway.

(Hint: He won't)
