Replying to a comment on:

I sit here alone deep in thought What will my future bring me? It's so uncertain, and distrought There's million things that scare me. There's dreams not met, there's hopelessness, And feelings of despair For each time I thread on this path I'm scared and run away. Yes, this is life as we see it Its common where we live To turn around, and with a bound to gallop out of reach. But, when i met my Saviour, He changed my life around, He held me with his loving arms, And carried me right on. And now I live with courage, I do not fear the night For by the name of Jesus I see the light. I see the light that guides me I see the light that shines Inside me, growing brighter As with love in me he smiles. He gives me hope to dream on He gives me hope to grow And with each and every passing day I see him more and more. I am not scared or worried My spirit not forlorn There's radiant plans for me I know Because I love him so.

Just because someone said that love is blind and sometimes it appears to be blind doesn't make it blind. As far as God is love? Well love is a chemical reaction sturred by mental stimuli that is designed to urge a species to procreate ie. Sex or it is a simular chemical reaction meant to cause a desire to group oneself with another usually for the sake of safety and survival.
So maybe God exist for the sake of sex and safety. I kinda like that idea. Shouldn't God be blind in the way "love is blind" anyway. "No, your ugly. You can't go to heaven." Seems logical that in that way God should be blind. Why shouldn't a God that created us to think in logical terms(at least aspire to) not make his own existance appear logical? If that child's father told him to go kill his puppy to prove his loyalty to him. if his father watched him being tortured and nailed to a telephone pole and didn't do a thing about it even though he could have ended it emediately. Do you honestly think the child would still trust him? Only if the child was insane. If I told you that the bible you read is one that was rewritten and edited by the multi-god Greeks and Romans and then later by a cruel English monarchy. If I told you some books of the bible are lost forever to us and some passages were entirely invented in later versions of the bible. Would you still call it the word of God and worship the bible(which by the way the bible tells us not to worship objects)? I don't mean to scare or offend you but if the word of God exist then the only place it's truly written is on our souls. I do believe the spirit of God(whatever he is) eminates from the bible as well as others. The Chronicles of Narnia for example or Dante's Devine Comedy.
The childs bond to it's father can be summed up like this: If you drop me I might die but you hold me and feed me and keep me warm so that I don't die so I guess I owe my life to you at least until I'm old enough to live on my own.
Now, I'm about to tell you what God is so hold on.
God is the idea that something exist beyond our capacity of knowledge and the hope that someday we may become a part of that higher level of existance.
