Various religions are handiworks of certain vested interested groups who have no faith or belief in any philosophy except that they follow whatever they call as religion, merely for their survival, comparatively in luxury on the name of God with illusions due to mere ignorance by advancing arrogance and crime merely once again to preserve their luxurious survival. Though none can challenge the Divinity we call as God, these self styled so called religious fanatics do a lot of disservice to God by misleading different groups of people taking advantage of massive immature ignorance many times giving rise to hysterical worship of some Divinity without understanding the real Divinity! Real God can be seen by rational thoughts when science and that yet to be known lead to a religion as late Dr. Einstein could see! Real Divine God is magnanimous that pleads to wipe off the tears of those of any of His creations with no disparity whatsoever, in miseries! That is the true universal religion!
YOU ARE RIGHT. "Real GOD is Magnanimous that pleads to wipe off the tears of those of any of his creations"
The more a person progresses in his or her spiritual journey as per hte above stages described, the freedom the person gains and gets rid of the slavery to the nature or creation. Just like the way a person realizes that what he is watching is after all a movie, and then sets free of self from the mood of the scenes, the individual also sets self free from the pains and pleasures by progressing in the spiritual path.
Remember what Swami Vivekananda said: "Seeing DIVINITY in a particualr place or location is just a very preliminary level of spiritual enlightment".
We cannot expect to free self from pains of the world, by being at the very preliminary level of enlightment. But when we progress towards the higher levels, we see ourselves by way of personal experiences that we are getting free from the pains (or compulsive pleasures) of the world.
Even Einstein had declared that religion and science had to go hand in hand. infact, this is what the original founders fo the religions had done. They had taught the things to the others by way of their own self experimentation and self experiences and then only taught others, rahter than by mere mugging up of the holy texts.
Please read the book "Autobiography of a Yogi" & you will find what GOD is that adheres to modern science, Bible and Vedas:

CONTINUE: This is the highest state & anyone who attains this state can be referred to as GOD, since even though there is a body for this individual, the individual doesnot have a perception that he/she is is a body or limited, but is an unlimitedness & all pervading & ever living one.
Above states are based on a time base. Where, sometimes, the individual can experience the above stage 2 or stage 3 even for a moment if not all the time. But, still this kind of people can be seen as being known of GOD. But those who can at will attain the above 2 or 3 stages can be called as the ones who are free from the illusion of the maya or creation or Satan or Saitan. but those who are in stage 3 irrespective of time are the ones who are no different than GOD & should be treated as ALL PERVADING DIVINITY THYSELF. We see above stages in the lives of saints of all religions since time immemorial.
IF YOU LOOK AT THE LIVES OF SAINTS OF ALL RELIGIONS WHO ATTAINED 3rd LEVEL OF ENLIGHTMENT, YOU WILL FIND TO YOUR AMAZEMENT, THAT THEY ALL SPOKE OF SAME THING CALLED GOD OR PARAMATMA OR ALLAH OR HEAVENLY FATHER OR THE UNIVERSAL POWER. SO, DONOT FIGHT LIKE A FOOL IN THE NAME OF GOD. SINCE WE DONOT HAVE REACHED THE DESTINATION YET, WE ARE NOT REALIZING THE ONE & ONLY TRUTH ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF ALL PERVDING DIVINITY & ARE FIGHTING AMONG US. HOW FOOLISH IS THIS?
EVEN MODERN SCIENCE WITHIN ITS LIMITS OF MATERIAL LEVEL IS AFFIRMING THIS TRUTH BY DECLARING THAT ALL MATTER IS NOTHING BUT ENERGY

Hindu Vedic Scriptures & BHAGAVADGEETHA, Holy Bible etc scriptures affirm this: Everything & everyone in this world is GOD, but its just that the individual doesnot realize this truth. God is not limited to a particular place or location or a person, but is an allpervading divinity that has no beginning, no end or no middle & is existent with in the creation as well as beyond the creation. Due to the illusion caused by Maya or Saitan or Satan or the duality of the nature, the ever present all pervading divinity appears to be divides & independent & this is an illusion, while there is only one thing when you are higly enlightened. Below thing applies to individuals who are in the process of regaining the initial state of oneness: 1. in the initial stages, the individual(be it human or animal or any other individuality) perceives the GOD or Divinity as some power that is located in a place or limited to a body & thus see GOD OR DIVINITY in a temple or Mosque or Church or IDOL or even in a ideal or principle as in the case of Atheist. 2.In the intermediary stages, the same individual perceives oneself as part & parcel of the universalness or ALL PERVADING DIVINITY OR GOD. Examples of this stage are like seeing or perceiving GOD as Mother or as Father or as a Master or some other entity who includes the individuality. 3.In the third & final stages, the individual perceives no difference between the ALL PERVADING DIVINITY OR GOD & THE SELF.
