In Defense of God - E-book - ePub

In Defense of God is my ideas about whether or not God exists, Who or What God might be and Who or What Satan might be. It is an attempt to discover what Heaven and Hell might be also. It discusses the concept of Reincarnation, problems I have with different Old Testament stories, and what I believe they really mean and contradictions between Canon Law and that which we have always been taught about God.
Finally it discusses the idea that there could also be a God called Fate that has planned out our life to the last second and another God called Chaos Whose function is to disrupt Fate's plans. In Defense of God is more of a book of questions than answers. The reason is because no one has the answers and no one is an expert on God. I have spent a lot of the last fifty years, and in some cases longer, thinking about these things and while I have answers to many of the questions posed, I may never discover if those answers are correct, not even in death.
Some of the ideas and questions have only developed in the last year or two. The purpose of this book is not to answer all the questions or convert you to my beliefs, but to make you think. On many questions I have thought outside the box to come up with answers. We have been taught to accept the answers that others have proposed hundreds and even thousands of years ago. Religion does not want us to think for ourselves, but to blindly accept their ideas.
I do not want you to blindly accept my ideas, I just want you to think about God, an All-Knowing, All-Loving, All-Forgiving, All-Merciful and Perfect Being in a different light. If you are willing to do that, then this is the book for you.
