My Great Awakening

[davg2000]

There's a difference between there might be some kind of divinity/creator and there is the Christian God. (Why are the other religions/beliefs all "wrong"?) And who created the creator? Or how did he/she/it come into existence? (Yes, you will tell me humans are too limited to understand. That's always the answer when there is no, or not yet.) Like Laurie, I have no answer for myself respectively don't know what to believe. Which is probably the point. You cannot attempt nor convince by knowing/reason, either you do believe or come to from within, or not.

In the final stanza of Keats's "Ode on a Grecian Urn," the speaker knows that while he can describe the scenes on the urn, he can't fully understand it--the urn "teases him out of thought as doth eternity." So with God. With His properties of omniscience and omnipotence, He is without limit. We are finite creatures who may grasp some sense of God, but like the speaker in the poem, as humans we'll never fully understand Him. But we keep trying.
