This eternal question may be the most intriguing of all. Not so much for the possible answers which are readily available if one simply feels, but more for the varied responses that one gets including those derived from the most foolish of beliefs, to those that just flat-out deny any possibility at all. Did man invent God or did God invent man?
Man most certainly invented religion, which various forms are all valid and offer different pathways to connect to the One source. And man most certainly attempted at various times in history to embody in other men or animals God-like attributes; a practice that altogether seems foolish. However, in the end, the One true power that sparked into creation other universes like our own as well as other planets like our own - which are most likely peopled with other evolved creations whose sole design is perfection - stands alone as the One power. Some would suggest that earthly existence is all just a big accident - the position held by most scientists as well as other academics who must be able to touch, feel, and measure a thing for it to exist. They do not seem to grasp the limiting and foolish stance they keep and ironically treat others who choose to display a belief, as being the foolish ones.
Perhaps in the end, it will come down to those who hold a conviction of something greater than what can be found within the confines of our earthly domain, will merge with that One power and exist on another level throughout eternity. And conversely, for those who refuse to believe in the possibility of something greater, will only come to know only the expected darkness that they conceive as the only possibility and will cease to exist on any level.
It seems as humans we are limited and can never have a complete understanding, and to know the ultimate truth is something we can only speculate at before that occurs. However, the person who says that they are not sure and leaves themselves open to the possibility of something greater, seems to be of a more intelligent nature than the steadfast ones who just simply deny it all.
To find answers to the great questions in life, often the easiest way is to just let go and feel for the answer. The steady stream of energy that ties everything together - both past, present, and future - contains within it the countless truths of all time which is always ready to speak volumes to us; the hard part is shutting out the noise and learning to listen.
