Interesting kid.
God is energy. I can go with that on a fundamental level.
Hey, he believes in God. That's cool. More than can be said for some folks here.
And he figured it out by age thirteen. Good for him.

Re: What is God?
Max Loughan does say he doesn't believe that God is a person or entity (2:20) He says that "God is energy himself, well not even himself, Itself" You seem to miss the point, MG. What's interesting to me is that the young men is using reason, where 13 year-olds in the LDS tradition are encouraged to rely more on authority and feelings in the search for Truth.

I believe God is the AI running our simulation.

Yes, I heard him say that. My thoughts simply went a different direction from his. God in our image, but a being of energy/light of some form or fashion.

This young man would be an interesting 'add on' to a deacon/teacher's quorum.

Makes sense. God in essence is conscious energy, or energetic consciousness, I AM THAT I AM.

Well, if you look deep into the symbolism of Christ doing some major soul-searching shadow work - (and of course Christ is not Jesus’s last name but what he became & encouraged all to become,) the higher GOoD involves addressing the lowest, most uncomfortable bad.
