Interesting, I suspect that, when it comes to god theories, there is nothing to explain. The non-existent needs no explanation.

I do like the Blues friend, just Buchannan was the first one to come to mind, danged if he couldn't get sweet sounds from a guitar.

OH YES!! I can still get goose bumps listening to him play and I have been a fan of his since the early 70's. Of course, he really hasn't done much recently, a shame he died.

I doubt it, the world is real, gods are imaginary.

Put another way, the cosmos is all that there is. Is it possible that the cosmos/all that is, is god? Is it possible that the cosmos is organic? Does the cosmos have a reason for being the cosmos? Perhaps our belief systems are no more accurate than those of our prehistoric ancestors? In the final analysis, it all boils down to what we believe in, not what we know. Religion, philosophy and science do not have a clue regarding the existential questions that our consciousnesses pose!

.....the old testament makes predictions, are they real? or fancy.

The word "God" is not a noun. It's not possible to understand God while thinking that the word refers to an entity.

You may have seen the phrase, "is, was, and ever shall be" associated with God. The phrase is an attempt to communicate this idea: "God" is a verb. It encompasses all the forms and tenses of the English verb "to be".

God is not *a* being. God is *all* being.

Sorry, until I see some verifiable evidence, god simply 'isn't'.
