For me God is Global.
God is the creating force, and since we only can have 1 creating force, there is only 1 God.
Since God is the creating force, he must be in every living thing, from the smallest of smallest to the biggest of biggest, and in everything that grow.
"He" is in water, air, earth and fire.
Since he is in all, he is also a part of us, and when religions say we are created in his image, then they are right, in a microscopic way, because the same can be said about everything.

The God of the Religions are made especial for humans, to feel chosen, to belong to a belief, that show narrow thought, that promote discrimination if you aren't of the right sex, belief or sexual preferences.
It promote judgment, even if Jesus said..."let the one who are clean cast the first stone", and he even throw out all learned people from the temple.......who says he would not have done it again.

We fight for the right belief, we have competition to have the right belief, the belief is use to build own power, the belief is used to promote own interest, the belief is used to do cruelties toward innocent people...even today.
For what? Fore entrance to Heaven?....Heaven and Hell is just like Religions created by humans, they are a part of the tools to keep the flock together....but Heaven and Hell is not in the sky or deep down in the earth...it is on earth...it is how we self chose to live....how we let other control our life...how we let us be stagnated in the name of the Lord.

Since God is inside each one of a living soul, then he is also located in every living soul, we are a combination of God and the Devil
The Devil is also man created...it is in my opinion the degenerating power....the opposite....the negative field in our life....but necessarily because else we could not have understood God.

To get away from the human concept of God will not be easy.....and maybe not something that we want.....If Religion are used right....then it gives comfort to billions of people....it gives them hope....it gives them values....
It is just so sad that we have religious leaders that have blindfolds, that fight for personal power, which I think would have been against any God's Will.

Hopefully we can one time experience that all Religions accept each other, and understand that they are working for the same thing...to better a humans life

My thoughts

I could not have said it better myself. I can’t remember where i heard it but it feels so right to me to say that if our Creator was on top of a mountain and we were on the bottom that religion would be the path that we chose to climb to get to Him/ Her/ It, whichever way you want to see the Creator...

You kind of opened a new way to look at Heaven & Hell for me but i think with the way it is imprinted on my mind from childhood, it’s something i still have to ponder on...

I think that respect for one another’s religion or believe systems would make the earth a much more tolerable place; you don’t have to understand it but to respect the fact that it is that person’s choice...

One thing i see a lot is where people take, whether it be the Bible, Quran or any other Holy Book says and only use what suits their goals at the time but if there is no benefit to them they discard it...
