GOD & WHAT IS GOD

RPK,

I think that god is the most confused term in the human race. The Christians, Jews and Muslims immediately think of Jehovah. They think he is the creator of the universe, just because he claims so. We now know that the Universe came into existence 15 billion years ago and the solar system was formed only less than 5 billion years ago. Intelligent man only came into existence in the last 500,000 years ago. There are two astronomical ages, as far as man is concerned: one is the formation of the universe and the second is the formation of our solar system.
.

So what was god doing for 14 billion years before man came into existence to sing praises of how great he is? Sleeping all the time? Or was he there all the time, observing all events, whether geological or human. If he did not interfere in the geological events, why must we think he interferes in human affairs.
.

Like you, I always ask what is your concept of god? Is he the one from the middle east religions, who breaks his own commandments by killing? Or is it a universal silent force that observes all? Vengeful or dispassionate?
