God Exists Only in Rationalism, and the Human Conscience is the Only Divine Law

Alright. God does not exist as a physical being with the power to directly intervene in earthly activities. God is a being who can prove his existence through the fundamental laws of the universe. If there was no God, the laws of science could not exist because there would be no order from which to create them. Without a consistent, binding force of nature, all existence would be a completely random blaze of light and sound without any natural laws. A place in which no complex form of matter could exist. The universe had to begin somewhere, and at it's beginning is the mark of God, unless you believe that all time moves in an immense circle, but in that case, God is the reason that the circle of time does not straighten itself out.. The laws of God govern every aspect of the physical universe, and these laws could not exist in a completely random universe. God did however, give his beings a rulebook, but it is not the Bible, Qur'an, Torah, or Rig Veda; it is the individual person's concience. If we did not have consciences, we would be one of two things: either a flock of misguided murderors who live in a constant state of anarchy bereft of love and joy, or we could be a pile of vegetables, lacking the will and determination to do anything other than merely exist. The supreme concepts of good and evil are up to the individual to interpret for themselves. We only exist as our own beings. For all we know, the rest of the world may not even exist , and every one of us could be the figments of someone else's imagination, and even they might not exist. Just watch the Matrix. Thus, it is up to the individuals to educate themselves on right and wrong, and decide for themselves how to handle every situation in their life. What I'm trying to say is that if you do not believe an act is wrong and you feel as if you can commit it without the slightest pang of guilt, than you are free to do it, and no one has the right to stand in your way. However, the reverse is true, and if you live your life constantly doing things that bring you guilt and remorse, than you have effectively brought Hell itself crashing down upon your being. God gave us our conscience because that being that manifests him/her/itself through universal order and animalian happiness wishes that we create our own paradise on earth by the destruction of our inner guilt and sorrow. We must do this ourselves, collectively, and always seek to do the things that will bring us most joy in retrospect, and cease doing the things that leave us feeling lost and ashamed the next morning. Only by doing this can mankind and animalkind achieve paradise.
