Nature - is God’s abode

03/16/2005

Polytheism, which Christians have attacked so relentlessly, is simply one way of expressing the idea that nature is inhabited by God. It is a mistake to believe that the Hindu, Egyptian and Greek pantheons were the brainchildren of highly superstitious and naïve human beings. Even the Jewish religion, the first in history to emphasize the reality of a single God, yes, even the Jewish religion presents God in the Cabbalah under different names which express his different attributes and manifestations in the universe. All religions in forms more or less elaborate repeat the same truth: that God, who created the universe, is able to reveal himself through all living manifestations of this universe, of which we still only know an infinitesimal part.
