Bill Murray As A Religious Icon

@Jessss Redundant perhaps, but words are just pointers. The relationship is what matters. In modern terms the relationship of an individual to the universe is one of psychological separation. The delusion which Einstein speaks of is incredible, the amount that it determines what takes place is awe-full.

"All I can hear I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
Even those tears I me mine, I me mine, I me mine.
No-one's frightened of playing it
Ev'ryone's saying it,
Flowing more freely than wine,
All thru' Your life, I me mine." - I, Me, Mine The Beatles

That depends on your definition of god. Personally I think a god as as abstract as god = nature/the universe (as often referred to by the deist Einstein) is a redundant god.

?"People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." - Albert Einstein

@Jessss

To be a genuine truth-seeker you must be in doubt of your most cherished opinions. You must be looking for that which you do not want to find. That's the only way, you need to overcome personal bias, and so, you need to want that which you do not want, and not want that which you do want. You need to be able to throw off all your convictions at a moments notice.

Not Francis Bacon, but enlightening nevertheless:

A human being is a part of a whole, called by us "universe", a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest... a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness ?"This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty." - Albert Einstein

"The whole of nature" and that which is called by us "Universe" is no different from God.
