NuttyKaks 32 #1 Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) What does God look like? I've always wondered this question. Anyone have any good theories? (Atheists, I already know what you'll say... I've already heard it billions of times that God doesn't exist. Just don't post it please. Thanks...) Edited July 9, 2014 by NuttyKaks 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammerclaw 29,441 #6 Posted July 9, 2014 Just look at the Universe and try to imagine what created it. See the problem? The short pithy answer is that, like a Vorlon, God looks like anything you imagine. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IBelieveWhatIWant 452 #8 Posted July 9, 2014 Wasn't a passage "Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image"". Only reason I know that is because I like to question the "our" part. BTW I'm atheist, so did I break some sort of rule by posting here? Either way I would say according to that, it looks like us. Maybe half man half woman perhaps. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was going to say the same thing; if you follow the bible, we were made in his image.... Maybe like this?? ^^^^ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DieChecker 26,994 #11 Posted July 9, 2014 God looks like... well... what ever He pleases to look like. The Bible says we were made in His image, so I suspect he would favor a human body. Though he also shows up in the Bible as a Loud Noise and a Burning Bush, so anything goes really. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xeno-Fish 109,357 #12 Posted July 9, 2014 I guess that would depend on what that image is. I mean mankind in physical form or perhaps spirit form? If we are created in his image (spirit form) then who know exactly what that looks like. Might just be an orb of energy/consciousness. An we just pilot this semi-hairless apes. I don't think anyone knows. For all I know we all exist in a simulated universe while aliens use our brains as high end processors. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(your AV is going to cause a seizure) I can remove my AV... I'm guessing you mean my signature right? Either George Burns or Morgan Freeman... Take your pick... Morgan Freeman is awesome. George Burns played a pretty good God too. Wasn't a passage "Then God said, "Let us make mankind in our image"". Only reason I know that is because I like to question the "our" part.

No you didn't break a rule it's just I didn't want to hear "God" doesn't exist because I've heard it a bazillion times. God is black, isn't she? God could be an alien!

I always thought maybe we were created inside God's brain, so then that would explain why God could look like just about anything really... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you think about it, those little stick figures on the old Robotron game were created in OUR image... Thinking God looks just like us could be WAY off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kosciuszko303 10 #24 Posted July 9, 2014 Personally, I believe the story of God looking like a character, whatever shape or form that character may take, is early mans attempt at describing 'who' God is. I believe God is not so much a singular individual, but rather, a spiritual collection. All souls in the after life coming together as one, for me, is God. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank Merton 17,411 #25 Posted July 9, 2014 I would say God looks like whatever forms in your mind's eye when you think of Him, and if you don't form an image, then he doesn't look like anything. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
