I personally believe there is a creator(s) but I also suffer from the illogical nature of the idea where did they come from?
So being as we are approaching a religious season for most religions I select this time to apologize for any hurt I may have caused any of the posters on this BB who mean well.
This is a thread not intended to stir the shit so hopefully it can stay in the Lounge.

I'm like you and believe that humans (atleast at present), can't possibly understand something like the universes' creation/creator. It would be even more impossible than getting an ant to describe the pyramids . It's like asking when time began or what's outside of the universe. These questions simply cannot be answered by the human mind. I mean when you give a monotheist God sex organs, what does that tell you? We create myths for things we can't possibly understand which is why I believe God was created in Man's image...not the other way around.
But I do believe in God. I really have felt the presence of what I would like to think of as benevolent higher being. When you look at the universe, it's very hard to believe that certain things just happen at random, without some higher intelligence guiding them. I have accepted the fact that I am a lower being to this higher intelligence and that the truth will or will not be revealed to me according to its wishes/design. Ego is what makes the human race feel like we are privy to this information.
However, the good thing is. If a being is truly of a higher nature, then it is by default what most humans would be considered good. I doubt a creator of this magnitude would be evil or indifferent.
