God has been thought of as cosmic consciousness, as the "Tao", or as ultimate mind. Regardless of how one approaches the concept, it is clear that God is always considered to have omnipresence. So again I ask my question: if God cannot go outside Himself (there is no outside; he is omnipresent and infinite), then how can he "create" what is not of His own nature and attributes?? If He is ALL, then all events are within and of Him. You speak as if He was not All, but merely calls the rest of "ALL" into existence. That doesn't make sense. ALL is ALL. God is everything, or God is nothing. Of course, there may be any number of "gods" which is probably a more realistic idea. Or there may be both or neither...
