>> But God is everywhere .. how can you get closer to something that is everywhere?

Belushi,

I suspect you are trolling, since you are clearly an intelligent person. Are you 'close' to the people in your life whom you love? Are there some people you are 'closer' to than others, unrelated to physical distance? "Closer" at some times than at others? What does that mean? Feelings of trust? Willingness to share yourself? The degree of uninhibitedness in your feelings of affection for them? Awareness of a comforting, reassuring feeling you carry with you, which you associate with them? The list goes on of what that word "close" might imply in an interpersonal relationship... many of those things can also apply to the -experience- of having a relationship with God, regardless of whether God is 'real' or has the qualities attributed to it. Him. Whatever.

massage .. I was trolling ... its a situation that I find humourous.

But my religious thoughts are irrelevant .. I was being irreverant
