It is a mistake according to you, not to them. If I'm going to bet on a horse, it isn't going to be you. The essence of God according to most traditions is that of personhood.
You play with your erector set theology all you like, it does not convince.
To whom? From what culture and in what time period?
The point is, I could say with 99% accuracy what you physical anatomy is, how you objectively exist. I could never get remotely close to describing your subjective existence even after being around you for a long time, you have to describe that to me...and even then, you could change.
I give God the same respect. I don't assert there isn't one, I just don't project one then try and relate to my own super-ego projection.
