I would say it a little differently. It's all energy after all.
We feel energy, therefore we move forward. We feel energy, therefore we create form and content.
Except that when we talk about God, we are really talking about the energy that is created and that we feel and that moves us forward, the energy in which we see or sense form and content or the energy from which we create our own form and content. But the essential in all this is that energy from which we and everything around us and the whole universe is made -- and that is what we know as God.
A lot of people will disagree with me. And many will be disturbed because my theory does not characterize things as good or evil and certainly within human experience good and evil from our point of view exist. But then taking a wider view, what I may perceive as evil and what a polar bear may perceive as evil are two different things. So maybe "evil" is really a word I use to characterize energy that opposes my personal will.
So maybe if God is the energy of the universe, we can't rely on that energy to provide us our morality. Maybe morality and God are two different things. Maybe morality is what we create for our human society so that we can live in harmony, in security and in peace and flourish.
But then God is that energy as you say that makes us go forward -- that moves us.
Am I understanding what you mean?
