“Except during my childhood, when I was probably influenced by Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel depiction of God with a flowing white beard, I have never tried to project the Creator in any kind of human likeness. The vociferous debates about whether God is male or female seem ridiculous to me. I think of God as an omnipotent and omniscient presence, a spirit that permeates the universe, the essence of truth, nature, being, and life. To me, these are profound and indescribable concepts that seem to be trivialized when expressed in words.” ThinkingHumansKindGodSeemsSpiritUniverseWhiteChildhoodProjectsConceptsFemaleEssenceProfoundMalesCreatorDebateRidiculousBeardOmnipotentIndescribableChapelOmniscientDepictionSistine Chapel Book:Living Faith Source: Living Faith
