If you think there's a problem with anthropomorphism as it relates to the divine..as I do..then you should shitcan your previous objections, and the tome you worship.
These are -your- problems. Not mine.
No no; I don't do this self-argue stuff; I'm speaking by the book.
The definition of anthropomorphism doesn't need holy entities to apply:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropomorphism
Please revise its definition to see what I mean; here I quoted it from wikipedia's link:
Quote:Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human traits, emotions, or intentions to non-human entities.[1]
According to this definition; calling the American Hellfire missiles with the name "Hellfire" -for example- is an act of Anthropomorphism.
Quote:Personification is the related attribution of human form and characteristics to abstract concepts such as nations, emotions and natural forces like seasons and the weather.
Yes yes yes; this is more accurate; the concept of God is being Personalized; producing the "personal God" fever.
