The definition of God according to Merriam-Webster
​
quote:
1 capitalized : the supreme or ultimate reality: as a : the Being perfect in power, wisdom, and goodness who is worshiped as creator and ruler of the universe b Christian Science : the incorporeal divine Principle ruling over all as eternal Spirit : infinite Mind
​
I would agree with that.
​
The moral code derived from the Judeo/Christian God is called the Ten Commandments, which are a reflection of his character.
​
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."
Hey, Albert, I agree!

There is no proof and never will be of 'a deity'.

Re: Yourself
quote:
It's not how your behavior affects others, but how it affects yourself.
​
All behaviors you behave affect others, the world around you. It stops doing that when you are dead and behavior ceases.
​
quote:
That is when you can see God. You need not look to others, only to yourself, and Jesus
​
Your behavior is reflected in everyone/everything around you. The way a mirror does.
​
And another thing....take your eyes off Christ and you are lost. Looking to yourself achieves nothing, as does looking to others.

Strange, isn't it. It's like one of those things you might find in them 'hollers' in Caintuck or West'by god'Virginia. Where I can be my own grandpa.

Some are better off reading 'Mein Kampf' in Swahili.
