Paradox

If God is dead, then life is meaningless. If God is life, then God has meaning. If God is love, then love is life. And if life is pain, then pain brings God to us. Suffering opens our eyes, so that which is superficial may be washed aside and that which is true may be seen. But if God is dead, than truth has no bearing, no north star or center of the circumference. God is the creator, the truth and the light that allows us to see. To reject the one "I am" is to reject the source. God can only be dead if we make it thus within our hearts and minds.
