infinitely divine
Yar:
There is one God as there is one universe.
Me:
National religion: in practice, only the gods of one’s own nation are significant to the devotee.
It is impossible for any individual to exemplify all the possible ways of being human. So why assume that it is possible for a ‘being’ to exemplify all the possible ways of being divine? Why think, in other words, that there aren’t different and mutually exclusive ways of exemplifying divinity — being Allah as depicted in the Quran, for example, or being the triune God of Christianity, or the Vishnu of the Shri Vaishnavas, or the triune Goddess of the Pagan Celts?
