And one of the things one of my favorite professors told me was that if you're going to worship a God, that God has to be worthy of worship.
Yes.
Brilliant.
And to be worthy of worship, they at least have to be better, and we made a joke yesterday, than half the people at your local pub.
You know, like if God's not better than half the people at your local pub, like if you would say, you're an asshole, like you wouldn't worship that half of the pub, right?
So, and God...
of the Bible fails on a lot of those criteria.
And you make that case brilliantly in the book, that this idea of God in the fundamentalist way is not a God that's worthy of our worship.
Now the question is, that's a curiosity to me,
is this a being that we've created, just projected it, or does this being have primacy and we're actually worshiping a very, either an egregore of our own creation that is actually then a real being, or is this a being that was created perhaps on another planet or in another time or just part of the fabric of the cosmos itself?
So I guess I would love you to explore that.
The idea of whether this God that fundamentalists worship is actually a real, a real being or just simply an idea that we've created.
Okay.
Are they extraterrestrial or extradimensional?
So extra-dimensional like the real God is, but there's beings that are holographic fractals of that extra-dimensional thing that have a physical density.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're always creating more of what we are putting out into the world, like attracts like.
And still, nonetheless, there is that place for confrontation.
This is the paradox that needs to be handled with great philosophical, theological understanding of what we might have to do to protect and take care of our fellow beings.
