Quote:Yeah I agree with both your sentiments. People are egotistical/ narcissistic and religion reflects that. What other way could you explain to humans the nature of God but in human terms? The intention isn't egotistical. It's poignant. gods aren't made in our form, we describe gods in terms meaningful to us.Erm... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropology_of_religion ? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropomor...ythologies ?
Describing gods in 'terms meaningful to us' is the same thing as 'making' or 'defining' them. I don't give a damn about 'God'... i am talking about how humans made all of our gods. I hardly think you would debate this point.
Quote:Yes but that wasn't what you were saying Sae. You think Christianity when monotheistic is polytheistic. SO is just being tangental which helps no one.I think that as well. The only way to de-polytheisticify it is to remove all the angels and whatnot
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
