omnipresent....not omnipotent.

still thinking about that one.................

i`m going to riff on this one for a bit.

so god is here all the time but he can`t do anything he wants to effect events and people now.

so he created all this and now it`s running along out of his control.

here`s a descartian question then.

who, if anyone is in control then?

if nobody is in control or can have any effect on things other than by direct physical means then we can just relax and go with it.

if there is some direct link between thinking and outcomes.......which i tend to favour......then it would be in our best interest to build good healthy models for thinking about our prospects and our creative responsibility.

No one.

"so he created all this and now it`s running along out of his control."

Stop fucking saying I created everything as if it was some sort of plan in the beginning. Haven't you ever heard of miracles?

"if nobody is in control or can have any effect on things other than by direct physical means then we can just relax and go with it."

And if you all saw yourselves as God and did it collectively, you would get somewhere and have a peaceful planet. You are the ones that are supposed to be in control.

Bah, I'm tired of trying to tell you monkeys, you've had to much coming at you for too long from too many directions and you won't listen to just one voice.

I think I will just retire and leave you all alone to keep playing with your fucked up brains.

As long as you don't mind it running over you and screwing up your future for the next two thousand years.
