that is why...you cannot put God in a topic, because of what He means to people, it differs from each of us.
I believe in God, im Catholic, ^^ i do believe prayers help us, but praying alone is not gonna makes all our wishes come true, we have to work hard for what we want.
But i most say there are some cases that...in mi belief, praying is the only way, like...when someone you care about its suffering from a really grave illness, aside from the Technology and the Medicine of our times, its always god to pray for that person as well.
But, this is only the way a certain person thinks about, does not need to change the way anyone else thinks about the world or what he/she believes

bluecherry "Conisniss"? Do you mean "consciousness"? If so, consciousness isn't like something that is a concrete solid thing itself, it's more like the result of reactions in the brain. When the brain ceases to function, no more consciousness results.
Ah, no more steak = no more sizzle.
But so many of us cannot fathom that concept. Perhaps it is a well-founded conceit that the our whole being seems to exceed the sum of our parts... Otherwise, many would demand, what's the point of life? Merely to roll the genetic dice and hope the next generation will be better adapted to this world, and perpetuate the species? Once our furry ancestors reached sentience, one hopes there's a greater purpose. It is the purpose of Myth, broadly speaking, to bridge the gap between the concrete world which hasn't enough answers and the subconscious dreamer in us all.
There are fairly universal archetypes found through the ages, across cultures, which bind us across time and geography. Does this point to a divine source, the cut diamond which is presented to each culture as but one facet? Or does this point to a universal yearning in Man, to be more than he is? I fear, when we each know the answer, it will be too late to share! cool
I rest comfortably with my own cosmology, and prefer not to be preachy. What works for you is not my business, and I'm not fond of pushy groups. An aunt of mine distributes little pamphlets for her own beliefs, harmless enough but annoying as all hell...
