I see "God" as a condition of perfection (being whole, complete, fully developed) - "godhood", to say it in
Mormon terms. I don't see God as one entity, apart from his children. Thus, the "condition of being" we call "godhood" is being everything it is possible to be.
More importantly, I also believe we are gods / godly when we are everything we can be
at any given moment (as perfect as we can be) - and I believe we understand both our strengths so
poorly and our natural limitations so clearly that we have a
hard time realizing we really are gods in a powerful and important way
even with our weaknesses and imperfect states. As I've said in previous posts, we see our caterpillar selves and fail to realize those caterpillars are developing butterflies. Butterflies and caterpillars are NOT different species, anymore than a kitten is a different species than an adult cat. A butterfly simply is an adult caterpillar; a caterpillar simply is an adolescent butterfly.
I believe we are
"adolescent gods" much more than "future gods".

I just finished reading "The God Who Weeps" by the Givens. It supports your view in a deep way, basically stating that God is, and we are, what we believe down deep God is and what we really believe we are.
I think if people were honest and looked down deep in their souls, they would all admit they believe they are unlimited beings, with never-ending potential.
