Do you believe in God

    I didn't say exclusively human. I said personified human.

    You can't deny that humans have those traits, which means that the traditional Judeo-Christian/Western god is a personified deity if "He" (yet another personified trait, assigning a gender to god) exhibits those type of traits.

    To me, it seems the ultimate in human ego (not in the negative, i.e. selfish, connotation of the word, but in the base psychological "ego-centric") for human beings to attribute human-personified traits to a supreme being.

    Or, as some call it, hubris.

    I do beleive in God, but I'm not one of those bible-worshipping Republican zombies like the rest of my church. Not that there's anything wrong with bible-worshipping Republican zombies.

    I believe in God, but I think God's a woman.

    As Neil and Tim Finn say:

    We're all God's children
    And God is a woman
    But we don't know who the Father is ...
