God

What is God like? Many people, wise men and experts supposedly, know. They have the knowledge that separates themselves from the general population. That kind of Gnosticism is not only in the said sect of religion; it is exhibited all across the board. Christianity, Catholicism, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, or Shinto, whatever; as long as there is some type of belief or religion combined with organization, I’d say it is hard to prevent human beings from utilizing it for their own ends. Power, that’s what it comes down to.
I say screw all that. I say we may not ever know what God, Allah, Yahweh, or whatever else we want to name Him/Her/It is like. Who cares really? Why does having the knowledge of God matter at all, unless you’re motivated by a pursuit of power over your fellow men?
God gave us something inside of us; we call it our conscience, our heart, our instinct, our spirit or soul. It guides us in the direction that we, perhaps, ought to go. Socrates talked of his voice, never telling him what to do, but forbidding evil. Everyone’s voice may be different. All the time we spend looking outward, we might be better served reflecting inward. We needn’t know the exact psychology or characteristics of the Almighty. He, in all of His wisdom, already included the tool within us. We ought to trust ourselves, which in turn is really trusting Him, instead of so called experts, priest, reverends, or rabbis.
