THEORY OF GOD : The Never Ending Discussion.
Ask most Christians to define the word "God" and most will tell you that it is the name of the Almighty Creator of the Heavens and the Earth. Some would also reply to you that this title also refers to Jesus, the one they refer to as the son of God. Ask a Muslim,Hindu,Sikh or most any other man or woman of a different religion, and they will reply in a similar manner, except that most would exclude Jesus from the title of God.
Is this entity, the one that most people refer to as their God, the same God regardless of one's Race, color or religion?
Gad is a Syrian or Canaanite deity of good luck or fortune. In Hebrew, it is written GD, but with vowel-pointing, it is "Gad." Other Scriptural references to a similar deity, also written GD, have a vowel-pointing giving us "Gawd" or "God." Gad, or Gawd is identified with Jupiter, the Sky-deity or the Sun-deity.
In the Greek, the word God is a translation of the word "Theos" meaning Mighty One.

In Indo-Germanic dictionaries, only one word resembles "god." It is ghodh and is pronounced the same. This word means union, also sexual union or mating. According to Luneburger Wörterbuch, the following are the same word: Gott, got, gode, gade, god and guth (gud). True Believers should never use the word 'God', when referring to Yahshua, Yahweh, or El Elyon.
However, assuming the term God is strictly defined as Mighty One, or Powerful One, a substitute word for the Hebrew "Elohim," and for the Greek word "Theos,"

CONFUSED!!!!
Anyone will get confused with all such heavier and stronger definitions of god..
But what is the exact definition which can be given to the word of great significance "GOD" or correctly "THE GOD"
According to me God may be the assumption of people. It is the nature of human being to depend on someone or something to fulfill their desires. To fulfill their wishes they assume about some supernatural power which can help them to get out of their sorrows, which can help them to achieve their dreams or anything what they want and this supernatural power was given the name "GOD"
These are my views..may be someone has other views or more correctly he or she may be right in this regard..
Let me tell a story to justify my views....
I was on a trip to Golden Temple, Amritsar with my friends. The common Scene outside the religious places: BEGGING
A small boy may be of 6-7 years come to me and ask me to give him some rupees in the name of god whose picture he was holding in his hand. It is my nature that if someone comes to me as a beggar, i prefer to give him or her some eatables instead of giving Currency. I asked the boy that i will not give him rupees but if he want to eat something then i will get something for him. But he refused and urged me to give him rupees. After sometime when he noticed that i am not going to give him rupees..in anger he threw the picture of god towards me!! I took the picture and asked the boy" Kya tumhe pta nahi bhagwan ki photo ko nahi phekte?" Boy gave no notice to my question and start begging from others.
Then something struck my mind that for that boy God is nothing, just something which helps him to earn his living.
May be that boy was true. There are a lot of people who are becoming more and more rich in the name of god. With few words of "Satsung" whose meaning they also don't know they are earning crores or millions of rupees. May be he was trying to follow them so that he can also earn something in the name of god.
I am studying in Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. During class and in my hostel i discussed this topic with many of my friends and classmates. Everyone gave me different views about the existence and non existence of god with some good or may be true facts( i will not mention them,, otherwise i will become topic of discussion among religious thekedars :p) .But the best answer was given to me by Paras Sharma my classmate that " It is the nature of human being to depend on someone or something to fulfill their desires. You may see that after 20-30 years people will start worshiping gadgets like phones, PC, laptops, robots because they will become such an important part of human life that it would be like difficult to live without them, that is why we call the next generation the generation of gadgets.."
From these incidents i got the views about GOD.
These are my views..may be someone has other views or more correctly he or she may be right in this regard..
