Ingenuity of the human mind

What is it that should define God? Trying to define an entity called God itself is unthinkable. By virtue of being the owner of everything in existence including ourselves, trying to define God is like thinking about how thoughts are thought out. It's similar to gravity, which is known to exist but cannot be defined even if we are aware of the laws binding it.

The thing to think about is, who would have come up with the concept of God in the first place? It's obvious to conclude that religion would have been born afterwards just like different pathways are created towards a destination, once it is known. Similar to how there can exist different roads to journey upon, different religion's were formed. One can also presume why anyone would have wanted to control or monopolize the access to reach the destination, by creating rules to be followed in the form of religion. And history is littered with evidence of how much strife was caused by the birth of various religions. But what remains unknown is who would have created the original concept of God in the first place? And why?

Logically speaking, faculties like emotion hardly have any reason to exist in a world where nature's law of survival is predominant. They give rise to weakness which countermands the basic tenet of nature. The only true feelings of life would have been those of hunger & thirst - which are essential to live. This would probably be followed closely by procreation, which again is another form of ensuring continuity, albeit for the larger cause of preserving one's own species.

So if there is no need, what-so-ever, to have any form of emotion to survive, what gave rise to compassion? The answer may lie in the primal sense of 'fear.' Contrary to popular opinion translating fearfulness into cowardice, fear is what has ensured our survival, against all odds. It is the minds way of ensuring our body's reaction spontaneously, to safeguard against threat's of known as well as unknown origin.

It is not possible to determine the scope of the unknown because we are unaware of the extent to which complete knowledge resides. Subsequently, the more one discovers, the higher the understanding of the unknown. Strangely, its become such, that we continuously choose to believe in a future, which belittles our existence; for the sake of a past, which empowers the present.
