Where is God in our future?
As I'm sure most of humanity would agree, God is either one of two things:

1. God is this device that humanity has created as a crutch to explain things we do not understand and/or, to give some sort of higher purpose that we somehow need or want.
2. Real.
I want to make the distinction between God and religion. I am not talking in the context of religion. What difference would it make? In my personal view the two could not be further apart, but that's on a different note.
The place of God could continue to be in the same as it has always been. Depending on your viewpoint, an idea that will eventually fade away with the advancement and enlightenment of humanity. With the advancement of the sciences we will be able to explain a little more of this vastly complex universe, and may even look back on all the ages we leaned on this idea as a somewhat necessary step to eventual maturity.
God could also continue to be as relevant, and as real, and as there as you or me. Of coarse, all depending on you view point, that is if God relies on our viewpoint in the first place.
For me, the idea that humanity will continue to advance to this perfect state of ultimate achievement in this self-aggrandizing age of enlightenment. I wonder if there will be room for any kind of god at all.
I don't think it's wise to throw ideas out the window just because they're not in fashion, so to speak. Even more so if it just makes you uncomfortable (me included).
(It just occurred to me that i might be yelling at someone that may not be there, please forgive this and i hope you enjoyed my article in spite of it.)
