Does your personal rendering of god come from the bible or is it derived from some other authority or source?

It's largely from personal, subjective experience/interpretation of that experience. I've read a bit widely and christianity seemed "rightest" to me so I chose that (irrationally but I have no better alternative).

The disparity beyween what you believe in, and the tenents of Christianity, is grotesque.

It really isnt - I go to the Australian Uniting Church which is one of the mainstream "normal" churches and I fit right in. Christianity in America is very different from Christianity in the rest of the world imo.

What about the properties of your God, is he undefined in much the same way John21's is?

What I mean is the creator of the universe, able to do everything it is possible to do and able to know everything it is possible to know. I also believe he is benevolent though I find degrees of benevolence difficult to comprehend.
