Where is God? [View all]



Within living memory, the hoi polloi faithfully understood that the Almighty Creator, along with angels, saints and dead people actually and factually populated the sky. While God had the remit of the sky the Devil set up home in the scorching sub-terrestrial core of planet Earth. We can see this evidenced in religious art in which artists have traditionally painted their God of choice, dwelling in the ethereal environs in or just above the clouds.

Fast forward to 2019 and most of us have been on a plane. We have all been above the clouds. Couple that with the significant number of satellites beyond our atmosphere, and rather regular missions into space, which has demonstrably shown that there are no Gods inhabiting the atmosphere. Right? After all powerful telescopes can now see to faraway spheres of the Universe and they have not found heaven. Right?

So, where is God?
