We have looked at some of the ways that the nature of God, and the ways that God can be worshipped, are compatible with an Internet God. This section is more concerned with the ways that The Internet enables any such God to be shared amongst individuals and communally.

Philosophy

In a post-modern age, perhaps it matters less to us than previously whether or not our particular God exists. To be preoccupied with those issues that theologians are concerned with may in fact matter more to us than whether or not, in absolute terms, the existence of God can be proved. The position of contemporary intellectuals is often that they are happy to explore these issues as if God exists whether or not God really does so!

There is a story about Krishna as a child mischievously eating clay. Krishna's friends tell his foster mother, Yasoda. Krishna tries to convince her that he has not eaten clay by opening his mouth.

In the last section, I argued that in theology, God has something to do with knowledge, enlightenment and truth – and that The Internet is now also a crucial provider of such understandings.

And the more that The Internet becomes a part of our lives, the more that God can be seen as associated with it.

I believe that ‘The Internet is God’ is very closely linked to ‘Innovation and Knowledge management’. This is because religion has historically been the best, most innovative money making business ever invented. ‘Innovation & Knowledge management’ is all about creating greater wealth.

I myself have been to the Vatican, the cathedral of Toledo, Gaudi’s Cathedral, Christchurch and many many more. These are all symbols of vast wealth.
