Are we becoming God? Or is God just a human idea?

What I truly believe? I believe we’re pieces of something much bigger, each of us carrying a spark of that vast intelligence or being, call it consciousness, call it the universe, call it God, whatever fits.

I don’t think there’s some bearded man in the sky pulling strings. I believe we’re active participants in something cosmic, possibly even divine. That life - our struggles, questions, madness, and dreams - is part of a grand unfolding.

I believe death isn’t the end, and that existence is layered, weird, and far more beautiful than we can grasp right now. I believe in curiosity, in becoming, and in breaking old molds - even spiritual ones - so we can evolve.

And yes, I believe we’re here to remember something we’ve forgotten.

I like a Buddhist metaphor that we are like waves on the ocean. Each of us feels separate, but we are just expressions of the whole.
True Death would be realizing what we are and willingly surrendering to the ocean. There are lots of waves and each of them unique, but it's all water in the end.

I’ve been thinking hard about evolution — not just biological but by will. Imagine reengineering ourselves into superhumans: flying with nano-powered suits or even better, upgrading our own biology for jet speed, super intelligence, energy efficiency, near immortality. We’d be masters of motion, thought, and space travel. Maybe even Kardashev Type III civilizations, harnessing entire galaxies.

Sounds like a sci-fi dream, but maybe it’s inevitable. The only thing that might stop us? That biblical Tower of Babel moment — scattering language and thought to keep us in check.

But then I ask: what if we transcend even that? What if there’s no limit — no highest scale? What if we actually built the universe ourselves — simulation style — and boredom becomes the real problem? I imagine God as a bored creator, fiddling endlessly with time, universes, and versions of themselves to escape eternal monotony.

And here’s the kicker: The traditional image of God as an all-knowing, all-powerful, perfectly calm being is kind of... boring. If God knows everything — every thought, every outcome — what’s the thrill? It’s like watching a movie you wrote, directed, and starred in... repeatedly.

Maybe the divine is us in motion. A collective consciousness where death is just another state, and unpredictability — chaos — is the spice of existence. Maybe God isn’t a separate, distant entity but the sum of human experience, evolving as we do.

Now, I know some will say: “You can’t understand God’s mind. It’s beyond human comprehension.” That’s a common rebuttal, but let’s unpack it:

*If God’s mind is unknowable, how can anyone claim to truly know God’s will or intentions?

*If we can’t know God’s mind, can we even be sure God has a “mind” at all, or are we just projecting human traits onto the unknown?

*This unknowability turns all dogma into interpretations — none absolute. Who then decides which one is correct?

*Saying “God’s ways are mysterious” feels like admitting that God’s nature is a blank canvas painted by human fears, hopes, and needs.

*If God is truly unknowable, then does the idea of a bored, omniscient God hold any real meaning? Or is it just human imagination running wild?


So, where does that leave us? Perhaps not worshipping a fixed, eternal deity, but acknowledging a dynamic mystery — a process of becoming that we are part of, shaping and evolving in real time.

In other words, God might not be a boring all-powerful ruler on a throne — but the unpredictable, evolving totality of our collective being.

This is the kind of future I want to discuss. A future where humans stop waiting for divine intervention and start becoming the architects of reality — with all the chaos, power, and beauty that entails.

What do you think? Are we really on the path to becoming God? Or is God just the story we tell to make sense of ourselves? And how do we navigate the tension between faith, reason, and this grand vision of human evolution?

I believe the same OP, @Skr9 just knows it!

Here’s a theory I like.

Everything in existence every atom, every thought, every emotion is made of energy, and all energy vibrates. From dense rock to a subtle feeling, all things are in motion, resonating at different frequencies. What makes something physical or spiritual, visible or invisible, is not what it’s made of but how fast it vibrates. slower frequencies form solid matter, while higher frequencies open the doors to emotion, thought, intuition, and spirit. This is the Law of Vibration. At its deepest level. Everything moves. Everything pulses. Nothing is truly still. Not Even you. We are very familiar with this. The molecule drastically shifts our vibration.

Now think of one consciousness. Universal consciousness as a vast field of intelligence that underlies all of reality. What if that infinite intelligence we call God. God is not apart from creation but is creation, and you are a facet of that whole. When your thoughts, feelings, and intentions vibrate in harmony with this field, you gain clarity, power, and alignment. This is familiar to us when you sometimes just know something deep down, It’s not coming from elsewhere. This Source is not outside of you, It’s emerging from the source field within.

So all things are vibrating, they interact. Your thoughts affect your body. Your emotions mirror your reality. Your beliefs shape your life experience. As within, so without. your inner frequency sets the tone for what manifests in your life. You are the universe in motion.
Frequency, vibrations, spirit. Existing matter form universal intelligence. Devine interconnectedness of the universe within you. You are the source. You are the frequency.

I love this and I subscribe to what you say word for word.

But I am troubled by a concern that this is only my relatively easy life that allows me to believe it.

How does that ethos work for a starving child in a certain warzone today? Did that child vibrate itself into such suffering? Does the child simply have to change it's beliefs to stop the suffering?

Is the child suffering because someone else manifested it?

Does that mean that other people's lives can mirror my thoughts?

Is it generational trauma that the assumedly innocent child must shoulder?

How does it work?

You and everything you encounter on your Path of Life is created by your Being. It is a reflection of your Being and you're observing that reflection. What you do with that information is yours and yours only.

This reply, you are reading, is created by your own reflection. You have created my response with your question. Just as your question was created by my own reflection of my Being. We are one and the same Being, reflecting into each-other.

I don't understand any of it, but it does 'feel' so.

One of my current gauges -for my current reflective Being- is: Is the Event part of my physical-sensory-experience (feeling) or is it a story that I heard or read. If it is the latter, the significance of the event is close to zero. Since -in my current state of Being- the only events that have a direct bearing on my personal sensory space, are events that were created by my active doing. At the moment if feel that the reflections created by hearing and reading are reflections of the Ego-Being, while the reflections created by my doing are the reflections of the Heart-Being. The reflections of my Heart-Being will manifest themselves within my physical-sensory-experience on the Life-Path.

I'm trying to learn how to interpret the reflections of my Heart-Being and trying to lead my Life-Path more with my Heart-Being. Not to forsaken my Ego-Being, but more trying to find a 'healthier' balance between the two. Trying to close the fissure between the two and let them both lead my Life-Path.

For me it was time to switch the butterflies and learn to listen to my Heart.

I love it rkba, as we reflect each other it is so evident that this is not just belief, but spiritual logic.

So does the starving child only starve in my reflection of myself? Do I create the starving child as a reflection of myself?

Of course, as fragments of the whole, I AM the starving child.

The child doesn't exist any more than I do. The suffering does not exist. Only my interpretation of what suffering might look like exists.

I'd say it's a child's karma to suffer and yours to watch it suffer. No one is innocent in a relative sense. Children are just not mature enough to incorporate their karma.

As long as there is a sense of self, the world and its problems are here. The Soul is One; there are no others. However, we don't see it that way, and our point of reference is an individual persona. We are not even fragments. It's a delusion, and that's how it looks from our perspective. You can't divide the One, because there is nothing to divide.

Who's seeing the suffering? Who creates that picture and judges it? First, we need to investigate who we are; then come other questions (if needed).

Devils advocate: What is there to say about the possibility that our beliefs are completely wrong and we accept the child to suffer through a delusion that somehow that is how it is meant to be?

You need to distinguish your internal workings from your external actions. Even if you understand this reality to be a dream and yourself a character in it, it's still just a bunch of concepts. Before it becomes a living reality, act in accordance with your moral values. From our egoic perspective, suffering is very much real and should be alleviated.

However, even when helping others, see who is doing it. Self-investigation is a very personal project and shouldn't be visible to anyone except you.
Ideally, it's not about concepts or anything. Leave that for life's philosophy and how you act, but always remember the doer.

Who acts? Who questions?
No need to answer. It's just a mnemonic device to remind you to look at the first-person.
That way, there are no contradictions, and you can play your role to the fullest if you wish.

More than likely true given the evidence.
Aside from standard revenge, cause and effect, I don't find any karma. If you have the power and they don't you can do what you want, even cause suffering. It's incredibly obvious all over the world.

Non revenge mystical karma is something I'd tell a populace to make them either afraid of being immoral, or to sit in meditation doing nothing. Either way it works to compromise them from bothering to change things, which would support what I want, in this hypothetical.

If I only exist as a fragment of a singular source awareness, then this experience is an illusion as is the witnessing of the suffering.

Since this perspective I experience is my version of the illusion, in order for me to understand suffering, I must witness a version of suffering that my awareness considers to be so.

In this hypothetical, it's a starving child.

Wittgenstein mentioned similar with the concept of "private language" in his Philosophical Investigations.
