Will people in fifty years still believe in Gods?

I have no issue with your argument John, as long as you are consistent. Regardless of the beauty in the world, to which I have no objection, there is, undeniably, an incredible amount of suffering in the world, far from most of it, due to human beings. If you see your God as he is ( "I am" [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] ) an evil agent, responsible for his own design, we are pretty much in agreement!

I would never worship, or even side with, such an entity!

I don't know if we do or not, but supposing we agree that my "I Am" equates to your, "It Is," I'm not quite sure where an "entity" pops up. Although I do understand where mainstream religions interject it (It).

I suppose what I'm trying to say: isn't there some form of holistic view in both interpretations? For example, if you describe all of nature, are you really apart or do you think of yourself part from the "all" of nature?
