So everything can be grouped together as matter... Maybe we are not individual entities, rather fragments of a larger whole? When we cease to be concious, the atoms that formed us are decomposed and returned to the whole. Apparently, God knows all, is everywhere, and is eternal.

We dont really know if matter is eternal, but what is to say it isn't? It IS everywhere, and we do know all of our thoughts and desires as we are told God does. It doesn't make sense to think that God is external to the universe. It also doesn't make sense for people to refer to God as "he" because it creates the image of an actual being.

Jesus was nothing but matter and conciousness, and he was God.

Conciousness is also nothing but atoms... So it doesn't make sense. How is it that we are composed of the same things as say, a rock, but a rock is not concious and we are. The structure the atoms are in means appearance and traits differ, but its essentially the same thing.

It seems unplausible that matter and energy alone can produce conciousness. It is more likely that, like matter and energy, conciousness is a fundamental to this universe and just exists.

So conciousness could even be "God"... But if this fundamental conciousness is God, then we will never be able to define God.

I dont even really know what im talking about or if im making sense... But whatever. I have more to say, but I cant think well in noisy places... -_-
