seemed you used many 'perhaps'
I, myself, do not mind long answers.

The universe holds many forces. Do all these forces come from one source??
Does one have the right to call this one force god??
It just seems that in response #29 you raised a lot of questions. I do not see how this fits in with the widely held organized religions.

I and others can prove that forces exist in the universe. Does this make it a god that gives a damn if I believe in it or not??

You talk about forces within man. There are already religions that say the same thing.

You talked about things that exist outside the accepted Bible. All I did wwas ask you to explain this view.
