“The Vision of Eliphaz, from Illustrations of the Book of Job” by William Blake
The God of the monotheists, especially as he appears in the Jewish scriptures, is such a small humanlike creature. He is irritable, petty, boastful. He seems more like a Norse-style second-level god, a Jewish Loki, than the creator of a universe of a hundred billion galaxies.
Consider his personal discussion with Job and Eliphaz in Job, chapter 42:
After the Lord had said these things to Job, he said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “I am angry with you and your two friends, because you have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.
So now take seven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job and sacrifice a burnt offering for yourselves. My servant Job will pray for you, and I will accept his prayer and not deal with you according to your folly. You have not spoken the truth about me, as my servant Job has.”
So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite did what the Lord told them; and the Lord accepted Job’s prayer.
And a couple of billion people still think that this is an accurate depiction of how the universe runs? What a joke! Somebody please spend a bit more on education. A course in comparative religion would be a useful start.

The Abrahamic religions assume that the Universe is finite and temporal. They then invent an autonomous entity that is Infinite and Eternal to explain existence and launch a Creation Myth.
Eastern religions are Godless because they simply assume that the Universe is Infinite and Eternal; An Infinite/Eternal Universe had no beginning and no Creator.
A few years ago cosmologists took measurements that prove the Universe is Flat. This means that the Universe is Infinite/Eternal and that the Net Zero Energy Universe Hypothesis is also true. This proves that God does not exist as an independent autonomous entity and at best is a Pantheistic deity.
And so we can conclude that God is physical, spirituality is physical and mind is physical. There is no Supernatural nonphysical anything and people have only used nonphysical assertions to manipulate the stupid and to encourage stupidity and dependency!
No voodoo, no miracles, no psychics, no ghosts, no mind numbing nonsense!
