Two Perceptions
By zevi770 · October 24, 2013
The first perception man has of God, is called anthropomorphization – where God is seen as a greater man.
Hence all religions, even atheism’s definition of God, make the same fundamental error, they imagine the limitations of a human, in a God – hence the person – being – has a philosophy which religions believe they must follow, based on their perception of whoever told them God thinks/desires this, and in the case of atheism, reject that philosophy.
The truth, as the Baal Shem Tov taught, is, that God is not an anthropomorphized human, God is a. continually recreating our reality; b. God is infinite, hence goodness and philosophy coming from God is infinite too.
The practical difference is simple, if God is like a limited human, hence he has but a single conception of reality, hence it would be true – figure out that concept and that is following God – but if God is unlimited, hence yesterday’s journey was only good for yesterday!
