If you really want to deepen your understanding of God in this way, I urge you to get the comprehensive work on this subject, Science and Health With Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy which can be purchased online. Or, if you want to buy one at a bookstore and be able to chat with someone about it, check your local White or Yellow Pages listings for a Christian Science Reading Room near you.
If you just want someone to talk to about it, don't hesitate to contact me and we can continue the conversation.
Above all, have fun Getting to Know God!!
