I knew you'd be all over this :::OshnSoul::: - and for my opinion, you're right on the mark. The idea that "God" is literally "Someone" other than "Everyone" is slowly loosing its charm, and more and more individuals and apparently more religions are slowly moving to this way of thinking. Right or wrong (if there are such things) it seems so much more plausible or believable using your view.

Ironically, this is something that simply cannot be taught to someone or something that you can convince someone of. By its nature, they have to adopt this idea as their truth for it to be acceptable. Not unlike the idea of "faith" prominent in most religions.

Frankly, I think that's what was implied by "faith" - that is NOT "Let me tell you an incredibly unbelievable story, tell you that in order to avoid "hellfire" you must believe, although I know its unbelieveable...moreso "You must find your own inner truths about God.
