Judaism, Christianity, Islam are relatively modern. If you want to get a better idea of that "entity" go back in history to learn what the ancients believed.

A good book to read is the Shabaka Stone -by Kaba Hiawatha Kamene. Although, the book is not about God per se but a deep spiritual thought about creation of the universe by the ancient Egyptians
Noted. Thanks.

Are you sure you are a woman. ?

And if you truly are, then I am surprised that you don't know about pregnancies that last for more than a year...

Have you heard Post term Pregnancy ?

Please go and do your research and stop accusing people of spreading misinformation
Yes, I am a woman, a proud mom of 4, and I know about post term pregnancies.

The placenta is only designed to function for about 40 to 42 weeks. Beyond this, it begins to fail, meaning it cannot provide enough oxygen or nutrients to sustain a living baby.

A pregnancy lasting a full year in humans is not possible. Let’s be careful not to exaggerate facts, as this can mislead people.

Kindly book an appointment with your gynecologist and discuss further.

They believe God created himself, but go wild when you tell them we evolved.

Not that I buy into the evolution version of creation.

All I know is we're just advanced AI designed in the lap.
Don't mind them
Beautiful things can't exist without creator but the pitch perfect creators doesn't need a creator

When landslide and all the negatives natural stuff happens all of a sudden that wasn't designed or oversight or crime by the 'creator'

This isn’t about village people. Medically, a pregnancy beyond 42 weeks is already risky.
A year? Impossible.

You have heard of post term Pregnancy... That means I am not making things up to confuse anyone...

My own Auntie had that condition and A neighbor's wife also had that condition....

I have also seen women that were certified pregnant for more than a year and they came for prayers for Divine intervention...

Abi you never hear of that one too. ?

Help me tell them...

Dem neva see or hear stories....

I have seen women that were certified as pregnant for more than a year...

They run to prayer houses seeking the face of God for Divine intervention...

In One particular case....

The doctors actually said the woman was not pregnant and what looks like pregnancy was fibroid...

But this Woman ended up delivering a baby boy after more than nine months..

Post term pregnancy does not mean one year.

I gave birth to my 4th child at 42 weeks, which is medically classified as post term.

The placenta is only designed to function for about 40 to 42 weeks. Beyond this, it cannot provide enough oxygen or nutrients to sustain a living baby.

This explains why a human pregnancy cannot last a full year. Did you read that earlier?

Many cases described as β€œone year pregnancies” are usually due to wrong dating, false pregnancy, fibroids, or misdiagnosis, not an actual living fetus carried for a year.

Personal stories, prayers, or spiritual beliefs do not change human biology.

No medical record anywhere supports a viable human pregnancy lasting a year.

I do not believe hearsay until there is documented proof from a recognized hospital, a one year human pregnancy remains a false claim.

Can you name a recognized hospital, medical journal, or documented obstetric case where a woman safely carried a living baby for 12 months?

Oh, I see.
But medically, pregnancies rarely go beyond 42 weeks.
What people sometimes call 11 months is usually just a miscalculation of dates or how months are counted.

Nobody truly knows what "ENTITY" is, or looks like.
So everyone is free to define "ENTITY" to suit his beliefs.
That's what the different religions all over the world are all about.

The image you are referring to though, is image as a Spirit not as a physical human being.
