Congratulations!
You have been awarded the TPM service medal! This is our third highest award for outstanding service on the intellectual battleground.
The fact that you have progressed through this activity without suffering many hits and biting only one bullet suggests that whilst there are inconsistencies in your beliefs about God, on the whole they are well thought-out.
The direct hits you suffered occurred because some of your answers implied logical contradictions. The bitten bullet occurred because you responded in a way that required that you held a view that most people would have found strange, incredible or unpalatable. At the bottom of this page, we have reproduced the analyses of your direct hits and bitten bullet.
The fact that you did not suffer many hits and only bit one bullet means that you qualify for our third highest award. Well done!
Crud, I did this a while ago. I had gotten hit once, (no bullets), and got the second award. At that time, 45ish% of people who did this got that score, Medal of Honor, I believe. Ah well.
The metaphysical engineers have determined that your conception of God has a plausibility quotient (PQ) of 1.0. A PQ of 1.0 means that as far as the metaphysical engineers can determine your conception of God is internally consistent and consistent with the universe that we live in. A PQ of 0.0 means that it is neither internally consistent nor consistent with our universe. More than likely, your PQ score will be somewhere between these two figures. But remember that this is your PQ score as determined by the metaphysical engineers. The editors of TPM have no control over their deliberations, so don't blame us!
*******************
What kind of God is that!?
The metaphysical engineers are happy to report that, to the best of their knowledge, the God you conceive is internally consistent and could exist in our universe. But they are less sure that what you have described deserves the name of God. She is not, for example, all-powerful. A God which knows everything or is totally benign may be a wonderful ideal, but is she really a God unless she has ultimate power?
We suspect that your God is not the traditional God of the Christian, Jewish or Muslim faiths.

They're right. I ticked off... NOTHING

There is no god. We created him. Who wrote the bible and chose what was going to be in it.... US. God did not write the bible WE DID. So WE created god.

Re: Did god make us...
Make Him? As in "built" a God? No, I don't think so. I like to avoid religious topics because there is so many perspectives on God. But the Theology behind certain religious draws me in to the idea. I believe that there is God out there. Not A God describe in holy books. The God I believe is a philosophical being from which all questions and inquires come from. At the same time that source holds the knowledge that we humans are always seeking.
For me to find God is to search him in Philosophy. That's where I think God's existence can be found. Who better than the philosophers to give us the insights of where God is? Religious people have their own path. Scientist don't care about God! They only settle for whatever their eyes and their experiments dictate them! I believe that the Philosophers are the appropiate people to find God (not that God is hidding prolly just wants us to enrich our minds).
The search for God is a philosophical quest. In which the mind expands to grasp knowledge of that which we don't yet understand (Yes! there is a lot of things in our existences that we still don't understand) Call me naive if you please! But I feel that God wants us (humans) to ask more questions about life and existence! Once we have pin point the question the answers will follow. Those answers will lead us to find God. In the end I have a feeling that if you want a map on how to find God the best place to get that map is in Philosophy.

I dont think god made us, could be but I doubted, all I believe in is that the "life essence" as I call it did cause the first part of the chainreaction: the big bang or what ever came before that, the real start. But that's all the "life essence" ever did and it's not a person or stuff it's just energy
