God, the definition. Why a rush to define God as opposed to experiencing God?
Looking at history can anyone observe that near all cultures whom recorded events recorded reality via their own cultural lens? History shows us there were 12 Apostles, 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac, 12 Greek Olympians , 12 tribes of Israel and the list continues. Note that all of the former "12's" have differnet characteristics? The Apostles were very different in nature and characteristics also. Do you see a connection ? Rudeness and shallow insults encouraged!
Christopher B, a top contributor, you must have dirt on someone at YA!
Perhaps a little more research on the subject as opposed to focusing on the encorauged insults might cost your a top contributorship..but, thats just you being you.
The 12 olympians were the 12 greek Gods. So, we do have a "religion" as opposed to a box of donuts afterall, and it was not really so difficult to find this information.
The Zodiac is referenced in the Hebrew bible within the Tabernacle which corresponds to the order of the Zodiac; Judah is the lion, Reuben the Man and Ephram the Bull; within the faces of the Cherubium wihin Ezekiel And Revelation we see the middle signs of the four quarters of the Zodiac as the Lion is Leo, the Bull is Taurus and the Man is Aquarias.
So, we have a cross connection in ideas bounding from Religion to Religion, not exactly a bakers dozen is it?
Across the board one can find truths in reality if one looks, or donuts if one enjoys them along with a cup ignorance.

If we attribute a special feeling to God, we need a definition of God to be certain that it is not derived from some more familiar source. Or even some unfamiliar neurological source.
PS. There are 13 rolls in a baker's dozen. That's why it is called a 'baker's dozen', rather than just a 'dozen'.

I see that they were all proceeded by the number 12... beyond that, no.
Here, I got some more for you:
There are 12 donuts in a box.
12 eggs in a carton.
12 hours on a clock.....
Things are really getting mysterious now. ;-)
P.s. Thanks Jimbo, fixed!
EDIT: Conspiracy Theories are a dime a dozen... get in line nutjob!

Because you have to first DEFINE your God before you can determine whether you're actually "experiencing" him or just deluding yourself...
