Conversations With God

Conversations with God is a three-part trilogy written by Neale Donald Walsch. (It has since been expanded by the author, though the original trilogy remains central.) The books outline the principles of God, ethics, metaphysics and the nature of reality in the format of a continuing dialogue between God and the author.

The dialogue articulates many philosophical ideas that have been advanced by major thinkers.

Some fundamental parts of the belief system include:

• God is everything (Spinoza)
• God is self-experiential (hence it is the nature of the Universe to experience itself) (Hegel)
• It is not in God’s nature to judge
• Good and evil do not exist (Nietzsche)
• Reality is a representation created by will (Schopenhauer)
• Nobody knowingly desires evil, hence Hitler “went to heaven” (Socrates)
• Humans are composed of mind, body and spirit
• God is a creative, Self Reflective Being (Hence Man is created in His Nature)
