God is What You Believe

Everyone believes in God

God is what causes you to believe in yourself

If you are reading this, then you believe in yourself.

If you don’t believe in yourself you cease to exist.

Do you exist?  

Yes you do.

Therefore you believe in yourself.

Therefore you have a god.

What is your god?

This is where everyone forks into a billion unique gods, because no god is the same, just as no person is the same.  Our gods are as unique as us.  It’s evident upon talking to thousands of people that there is no way we can even perceive the same god.  At the same time, god is universal to every human on earth.  God is the power that gives self belief.  You believe you can shut your eyes and there will be a sun in the morning.    Do you believe there will be a tomorrow?  Then tomorrow is god.  

These are my beliefs.  No one in the world has my beliefs, and no one should.  

No one in the world should have your beliefs and your god, it’s impossible. They can believe in your god as you can believe in their god, but they are not the same god, it’s impossible. I feel that this is layer one of belief, and then you can start to get to layer 2 where some people share a similar idea to Vishnu or Elohim. These are secondary gods, gods that have been created to unite or divide people.

Primary gods, the one you believe in could share a lot with Allah, but that’s just for pattern matching that the brain does. There was a time when no one knew Allah, and there was a time when no one Knew Elohim. There are billions of people now who know neither. They are not without gods, they believe in their existence, they have god with them each breath. It is why they breathe.

This is chapter 1 of 99 when it comes to understanding my feelings on god.
