It’s not that I don’t believe in God, it’s just that my concept of God isn’t what it used to be, which is that of an omnipotent super powerful Being that is conceptualized to look like human and is referred to as “He”. Nor do I believe that God is “up there, looking down on us.” 

Rather, my concept of “God” is more of a universal, holistic, kind of being that I can’t really imagine as a “Being” simply because it implies distinction. What I mean is, I believe “God” is both a part of, and is also the whole of, everything. That is, God is borne of, or IS, the connection of everything in this universe. God IS the Universe. This is why each one of us has the capability to feel the presence of God and/or the connection of all things should we so choose.

It’s still consistent with the teachings I learned in Catholic School which is that God is love, and is all around us. 

Does this make sense?
