Religions with hard lines around so many things, concern me.  And, anyone that speaks with such absolutes about who and what God is, also concerns me.  How can our simple human minds understand (and even try to speak FOR) the thing that created everything everywhere?  I think this was a great interview regardless of my perspective above.,(reply>)," @Tim Dunn Thank you for providing your definition of God. It seems that you believe in one God that has created everything. I don't think your definition of God is contrary to what Dr. Sulieman described at <a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOKCNUqbpH0&amp;t=4m06s"">4:06</a>. But what's impressive is that you reached this definition through your own experiences. What may be even more surprising to you is that Quran confirms what you just said: "Have they not reflected upon their own being? Allah (God) only created the heavens and the earth and everything in between for a purpose and an appointed term. Yet most people are truly in denial of the meeting with their Lord!" (Chapter 30: Verse 8). I wish you the best of luck in your journey of monotheism. Meanwhile", I would like to invite you to get a copy of the Quran with an English translation to find out for yourself if it's man-made writing.,(reply>), @Haider Saadat thank you, Haider, for engaging with mutual respect here.  I suppose my concern extends to any book/scripture/man-made writings (regardless of its religious flavor) that claims to be from God. My definition of God has morphed over many years, getting more confidently fuzzy with each iteration. I don’t know if it does any good to even try to apply more than “I believe there is a God that has created everything our very limited set of human senses and technology can experience.” to our conversation here.  I understand the well-defined definitions of God provide deep and lasting comfort to many many people. However, doing that, essentially, does the opposite for me.,(reply>), I agree with your statement "anyone that speaks with such absolutes about who and what God is, also concerns me". However, he was not providing his definition of God with such authority but rather referring to the scripture. What is your definition of God?
