Default Legit "higher being" question

Being a white dude, Ive always thought of a higher power as a white dude. Do black guys see a higher being as a black dude? Same question goes for every other race...

Or you can play the "He's seen as EVERY race" card.

I believe God is a metaphor for society

if I try to view it as a being I see a white man, but I try to see it more as a power or existence we cannot begin to comprehend

GOD is just blackness void, there is nothing after you die. It has been proven countless times by neuroscientists.

I have always seen god as a mythical creature invented to give humans a reason for attaining a higher respect for life and each other.

Nothing more and nothing less.

I don't think we can personify God. Jesus was a representation of God, the Holy Spirit as well, but I believe "God" is an existence of which we cannot comprehend.
