Um...no, it literally does.

Well, whatever he replies with will most certainly be a #2.

I will make a new thread about it in two weeks. Have to study for exams. Will be gone till then. I hope to see you there.
IOW, I need time to make shit up.

You never prove anything, just lie. So that's nothing new either.

You can try to redefine the word, but the word always was a degree of value.
You're the one redefining the word:
de·i·ty
noun
noun: deity; plural noun: deities
a god or goddess (in a polytheistic religion).
"a deity of ancient Greece"
synonyms: god, goddess, divine being, supreme being, divinity, immortal; More
creator, demiurge; godhead
•divine status, quality, or nature.
"a ruler driven by delusions of deity"
•the creator and supreme being (in a monotheistic religion such as Christianity).
noun: Deity; noun: the Deity[/i]
Calling 'whatever you value most' a deity is just a contemptible rhetorical trick that shows how much integrity you've lost since you stopped being an agnostic.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
