Something that I completely do not understand is when someone says "I believe in God" and then when they go into detail about their beliefs, they end up explaining that they do not believe in God, but have instead labeled some normal, everyday thing that we already have a name for as being God. For example, God is love, God is life, God is everything.
We already know that love, life and everything exist, and we have names for all of them. We don't need new names for them, and we certainly do not need names that already mean something else, such as God, which is generally associated with things such as the creator/ruler of the universe, an energy that is the driving force of life, a supreme consciousness that guides the universe, etc.
If you believe in God, say that you believe in God. But if you believe in love, life and everything, why would you label these things as God, if you aren't just trying to confuse everyone?
Thoughts?
it is realy graet to search for the good names and attributes of Allah ,
Qura'an Ch.17
[110] Say: "Call upon Allah, or call upon Rahman[means:the most Merciful God]: by whatever name ye call upon Him, (it is well): for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names. Neither speak thy prayer aloud, nor speak it in a low tone, but seek a middle course between."
[111] Say: "Praise be to Allah, Who begets no son, and has no partner in (His) dominion: nor (needs) He any to protect Him from humiliation: yea, magnify Him for His greatness and glory!"
If it was a good name, you might call Allah by this name.
