Gods make no sense except to very uneducated people

Define "God" for us..

My view is that "God" is defined in the minds of it's creations, assuming the creation is sufficiently self-aware.

We can be "Gods" to those things we create, even though we have no sense of being referred to as Gods because we can't receive "feedback" or adulation from One or Two Dimensional creatures. We operate on a Three dimensional plane of existence..

Like Fish in a fish tank, we know someone is caring for us, but our limited ability to understand prevents us from being sentient enough to interact with outside of our three dimensional reality.

Maybe any "God" humanity perceives is likewise amused at the "fishtank" he has created. We call that entity "God", while he calls us "pets".. lol

As for being omnipotent, "God" is for all intensive purposes when interacting with the 3rd dimension. Maybe that "God" is not such a omnipotent entity on it's own dimensional level.

Either way, as a pathetic 3rd dimensional creature, it doesn't matter to me since I will never fully understand the nature of my existence until the day that I die.

And one that day, I will either cease to exist, commencing my return to final molecular decomposition, or my lifeforce will transition to a non-three dimensional realm..
