God in 2010

What is God? Who is God? There are many questions about God today and how he is viewed in the modern world. Some may view him as part of a religion but others may see him as an entity, a higher being. Others, just plain old don’t believe in God. People today sometimes attribute all the bad things that happen in the world to Him.
As the all mighty God, he is viewed as the creator of the world. According to the Bible, he created us from mud. But come on, do we look like mud to you? We are not dirt particles gathered into one being. We all know this, but there are no other reasons for or existence except for God. Even when some say that humans came through evolutions, who created the animals that allowed the transformation?
Another view of God is the making of miracles. Some people pray to him during the time of need, or others just to thank him for their existence. Is he really there or is people just praying to God in order to make themselves feel better, a placebo effect. Whatever the reason, God is viewed as a miracle worker, making something out of nothing.
Finally, another view of God is in common phrases. Phrases such as “Oh my God,” “Oh my Lord”, “Thank God” are all common phrases said by a lot of people. People who say these phrases may not relate themselves to God at all. Whatever the reason is, God is something no one fully understands, even in the technological world today.
