[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sol System: [QB] Well, that's nice and all, but I mean, it hardly works. You can't rightly be delusional when you claim to be the messiah if you actually ARE the messiah. If any god existed, especially the sort of all-encompassing Thomas Aquinas style god popular in modern Christianity, your attempt to frame it in human terms would be meaningless. I mean, I'm an atheist, or at least a mildly angry agnostic. There are just no gods of any kind out there when I look, nor can I see a god-shaped spot in the universe for one to fit. But the idea that we can just sit around in the afternoon and quickly dismember a religion strikes me as kind of silly and pretentious, suggesting as it does that no one in thousands of years has ever had the same thoughts. Any theology so poorly constructed is quickly replaced by other, more robust species. Religion is an exceedingly Darwinian affair. So, I don't know. This sort of thing just gets under my collar for some reason. Things like the problem of evil, or the nature of God or gods have not gone undebated or unconsidered. [/QB][/QUOTE]
