Why is gods word subjective?

shouldnt THAT be the difference between gods word and the word of man?

your answer does not include the fact that this is gods work, and gods work is perfect. So if its intent was to teach us something, it would have. the fact that gods word is distorted and told differently is proof that the book is not perfect, and ultimatly, is not the word of god.

Hello Fightingistheonlyway, As I said that GOD’s word, in my humble opinion, should be all encompassing having guidance, in principle, for everyone and everything. It is only possible if it is simple yet very rich and profound such that every person can take from it as per his/her understanding such that the most capable gets the most. How can one accomplish that in one small book? For transfer of knowledge from one to another, both are needed to be capable and rich. A giver should be skilled to give everything and a receiver should be capable to receive. If the giver is all capable but receivers have varying capabilities to receive, then what will happen is what happens to rain water in above example i.e. everything getting according to its capacity. An excellent teacher will fail miserably if he treats his/her pupils as same and equal in capabilities or abilities. He needs to take care of all students including the dumbest and the brightest. So, in a lecture of ‘two hours’, he/she will try to be simple so that it is understandable to the most dumb but as a matter of being just to all, he has to give food for thought, hints and signs for the most bright so that they can catch on those hints and work out the details. That is to say that he/she has to be simple and comprehensive but concise as well as profound at the same time, in those two hours, to be most productive. If a GOD can’t accomplish this, it means a failure on His part. Thus, for me, different interpretations are a sign of richness and profundity rather than failure. No two students in a class get exactly the same thing and understanding of subject from the teacher who has to make his/her “several hours” of study, research and knowledge available in ‘just two hours’.

could that be your consciousness and not god?

Of course it could be, but I seriously doubt it, because the timing was impeccable. When I was in OT (Occupational Therapy) for my left hand, I had to get rides to and from the clinic. I had a neighbor who left for commitments of his own at an opportune time, but could not wait for me if I was running behind. It happened that I was running behind on at least three occasions I can remember, until this "urge" told me, "It's time to leave, NOW!" So I dropped what I was doing and ran to his house, just in the nick of time. Somehow, I managed not to miss a beat, in spite of how disoriented I was months after the injury. I think I had OT for a year-and-a-half before my medical release. I've also told you about the "coincidence" with my friend Nicole and her father's credit card, as well as a few others. I suppose a polytheist who believes in an inherent power in humans could say everyone has this sixth sense autonomously, but I find it too centralized to be inherent in every person. I had absolutely no conscious idea what was happening with my friend 3,000 miles away, but everything fell into place like clockwork. It's been months since then, and I can't recall every event that took place, but there were far too many of them for mere coincidence, and I find it hard to believe that my subconscious mind was putting this whole puzzle together. That would have to mean I had a degree of control over at least five people (Kat, Chris, Ron, the pickup driver, and the judge). :S And I ain't no Professor X!
