I see... God is nowhere. What else is there to see? That is what I also saw: God is nowhere.

Well, folks, I saw God is Now Here at first and then presumed it really meant God is No Where. Maybe the riddle is connected to one's Christian or atheistic beliefs perchance? What you see first is possibly due to your personal leanings? However, perhaps Xna can advise us better, since he was the one who posted the puzzle?

Xna ~ Fascinating puzzle you put up as an attachment. Now I'm wondering why you inquired what we saw first? I just guessed at the answer, but would like you to explain for us? Actually, I first saw the wheat and than saw "God Is Now Here." Then, after giving it some thought, I figured it could also be saying "God is No Where." Could it be related to what perspective you share on God as to how you view the picture?

This kind of run-on word confusion is not at all rare in Bible translation. Ancient Hebrew and Greek did not separate words with spaces. So translation of those originals was not even an exercise in vocabulary and grammar, but frequently determining which interpretation of a string of letters was intended by the writer. Also, Hebrew did not use vowels, and for them such words as rad, red, reed, rid, ride, rod, rode, rude etc. would have all been written the same on paper -- one symbol for the "r" sound and one for the "d" sound. I don't know that Chinese would be any more confusing than that.

Your projects create your initial POV.

Xna ~ I guess this liberal minded Christian still believes in a God behind the universe according to the test then? Truth is, I do. Recently, I started reading There Is A No God by Anthony Flew. It's a fascinating book about a man who was an athiest for most of his life and converted to deism before he died and wrote a book about why the change of heart. He never really endorse Christianity as we know it today, but he did end up believing in a God behind the design of the universe before he died and wrote a book about why he finally reached this conclusion. I'm reading it now.

I'm reading it now. It would be nice to see everyone again after my death, have no pain & no tears, and all the rest. The living forever part I think would get boring and make heaven more like a hell. I highly value truth and integrity. Today I see the afterlife as wishful thinking. Someday I may change my mind, but if so, I hope I hold out for a for good reason. Each have to make their own decision in these matters. Shakespeare got it about right, but I prefer "To thine own self FIRST be true."

I just love the picture of the cats lined up to give their testimonies and the last one was lost for words. Also, the communion cat who drank the grape juice, and when accused, asked them to prove it. Reminded me of DMG's avatar signature.

Catholics humour
A priest was invited to attend a house party. Naturally, he was properly dressed and wearing his Priest's Collar. A little boy kept staring at him the entire evening. Finally, the priest asked the little boy what he was staring at. The little boy pointed to the priest's neck. When the priest finally realized what the boy was pointing at, he asked the boy; "Do you know why I am wearing that?"
The boy nodded his head yes, and replied, "It kills fleas and ticks for up to three months".
