Do you agree with these two rules;1.There is a God and 2. You are not Him?

These are not rules, just statements. As statements I do agree. God is, I am not He.\n\nAs for other replies, it is written: "Only a fool says there is no God." There has been a lot of fulfillment to that statement.

Heyman I'm not religious\nso I'll answer your question without preaching.\nYeah, what if you're god?\nWhat if I'm god?\nMaybe we all make our own god within the vast construct of our personal inner world...\nMaybe there is no god unless we all imagine him at the exact same time...\nI could go on, but you've got things to do...

Yes, if you didn't question His existance every now and then, then I would have to question whether you believe in Him or are just following what others have told you to believe. Questioning is a part of being human - curiostity, you must think logically and a lot of matters to do with good are not always logical, but I think that these matters are outside of our realm of understanding and I figure that it may be for the best. So yes I believe in God (don't really fear Him as much as some people) but I think it is healthy to question His existance to create a better, stronger belief.

1) We live. We die. We rot.  \n2) We learn to deal with 1) above. Or we don't.\n\nI'm glad you don't want god or assurances about god because that's the last thing I could ever provide.

If there is no God, then I have two things to consider: Either there is an afterlife, or there is not. If there is none, then there is no me to be sad. If there is, then I hope that I will have lived the life I wanted to.\n\nIn any event, I am striving to live a life that I will be proud of when I die. Whether there is or is not some God, Goddess or Deity, I hope that I can be proud of the life I have lived when it is time for me to travel to the summerland.

I agree with you. When i see some people saying...follow this or god will hate you or punish you and so on, i feel the vibe of ignorance. This is my interpretation but I think god is formless since that divine energy is not just confined to our physical realm. But characterizing or defining God in human terms is an ignorant and self-centered way of interpretation.

for believers, the answer is yes and for atheists, the answer is no

Cool.  \n\nI don't have to suppose that - the Divine Source doesn't do judgement.  Or punishment or reward.

If I believed a thing was a myth, that would automatically mean I didn't believe in it.  If I believed in something, then I would automatically say it was not a myth.  Atheists believe God is a myth, Christians do not.  I think your question is a paradox.

Nope.  But if we could fully understand/explain God He wouldn't be much of a God.\n\nIsaiah 55:8 For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD. \n\nIsaiah 55:9  For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

neither... GOD is not human

Yes I do. But I don't believe in religion, because religion generally preaches intolerance and attributes human traits to god, which I think is inaccurate. I do believe that a loving and beautiful entity created us, and that it is "god" or whatever you feel more comfortable calling it. But I believe many things, using a mixture of logic and instinct. My instincts tell me there is a presence that loves us all. But that is just my simple understanding. Any suffering that we feel is our own creation, so the argument that "why would god cause pain" is an inaccurate argument. God, I believe, has infinite patience, and that is why we cause eachother pain without being stricken from the earth. And that is why I think that the atheist logic is flawed as well. Both sides use either the bible or "logic" to either bring down or deny god for their own agendas. Both sides use emotions, mostly anger; anger at god or anger at those who deny god. Please understand that I am not trying to bash anyone, this is just people that I have known personally, not everybody. Suffering is an emotion, which is a blessing and a curse, to quote a cliche.  With true enlightenment can come love and happiness, and for me that enlightenment is my bond with my creator. I feel happier than I have in years, and it gets better every day that I allow it inside. Every time I try to understand another human being and their pain and joy I think that things are more clear to me. I used to be agnostic, because of my anger at god, but one day, I just realized that my pain didn't have to own me. God is not something you can logically prove, or logically disprove, it is just something you believe one way or the other.

Because I may or may not believe in a god.

God is a figment of mans imagination, therefore he is whatever you think he is. Imagine he changes and he changes.

An atheist doesn't believe in a deity. An agnostic doubts the existence of a deity. A deist, on the other hand, believes them both to be wrong. It's beginning to sound like a 'shell game' doesn't it?

No.  There is no god.  There's no evidence pointing toward the existence of a god or gods, and no reason to suspect that such evidence just hasn't been found yet.
