Pantheism. God is a word to describe the wholeness of reality, seen as a single living being (the One). "Living" here means complex, intelligent, interactive, responsive, loving, joyful, prospering, creative, amplifying, mysterious. To me (PhD, philosopher, entrepreneur, developer) these are the best attributes to describe the world I live in. Science describes this world in excruciating detail and beauty for my mind, religion makes the same available for my intuition.<p>If I would say "I don't believe in God", I wouldn't be talking about God, because then I no longer talk about the One, but about two things: myself and God. Then I merely criticize my own limited image of God. Which is fine.<p>Besides that, my religion is a school for love. Loving is tricky: strong emotions, complex beings with individual edges and blind spots, very close to each other, causing friction. Much more tricky than for example driving cars. Yet, we all agree that attempting to learn to drive cars all on our own is not a good idea. Sure, like love, in the end driving cars is about developing intuition and following our instincts, and we can make it work somehow after lots of bruises, but its better to have some guidance and mentoring along the way. We need to learn about the basic rules that make traffic safe, or we'll end up hurting ourselves or others. The same is true for love. Wisdom traditions that provide guidance on how to love (aka religions) are useful tools that add value here.
