Short musing

On deities.

I don't know why I've been thinking about religion today. Possibly as a result of looking at the frankly loony happehtheory.com. Such a nutter...

Anyway, every once in a while, a random stray thought occurs that crystallises an aspect of my belief system. Something that was previously difficult to put in to words suddenly becomes simple in my head.

In this instance, it's the existence of god.

Y'know, that little chestnut.

Basically, while I'm prepared to accept the existence of a god (agnostic, remember, NOT atheist), I just doubt that he's a benevolent/ benign/ vengeful presence in our every day lives. My thought is that, if god created the world, then that's all he did. He made it, he populated it, then he left us to it.
