That is good manfraco except that you added the adjective "positive". In that way there must be something to attribute "negative" energy to, which obviously exists as well. Therefore, the representation of God being the universal energy that supports all life whether positive or negative seems more appropriate. With sunshine and blue skies come thunder and lightning. Positive and Negative energy stand juxtaposed in the universe and serve equally in the scheme of things. It would be questionable whether life could exist with the elimination of either energy. To believe in God in that sense matters not, as no one, neither believer or non believer, can deny the existence of Positive and Negative energy. This is the common ground on which all humanity stands, in fact, all living things for that matter.
