Quantum Physics vs. Religion

Every religion states that god is beyond our ability to comprehend it yet we put him in sandals and a robe, or some derivative thereof. Humans have created god in their own image, and I believe this is done in an effort to bring him closer to us, or to better understand the unfathomable. Therefor, when we reach different understandings of god conflict ensues.

Although many people believe that science and religion are at odds, they are in fact one in the same. Religion was once our science, now science has become our religion. Quantum physics suggests we exist beyond our ability to perceive ourselves and are limited to what we do perceive. This means that we cannot sense the energy that surrounds us, nor the souls that inhabit every body that surrounds you along with your own, but this doesn’t mean they do not exist. In other words, when you close your eyes the world does not go away. Many scientists suggest this theory may very well explain and/or confirm the existence of souls.

Humanity is laden with flaw, but from a positive view one might say our flaws are merely our separation from each other, our distinguishing characteristics. Our flaws are our humanity. I find it perplexing that people with beliefs different from most are considered insane, when mainstream religion is no more provable as truth. It seems that the more people that believe something, the more right it becomes. On that note I’d like to ask, what is the difference between religion and insanity – is it how close we think we are to god? And who are any of us to draw that line in the first place?

Many religions suggest that we are made from god, and even that we are each pieces of god and as one consciousness but different bodies we thrive and view the world from billions of different perspectives. If this is the case, we are god’s eyes and ears. God’s emotions, god’s drive, god’s ambition. This, I believe, is probable if you consider that god did create us in his own image. If so, perhaps we can understand god by better understanding ourselves.
