Well- I promised myself not to reply to this thread. but I feel like having some fun today.

First of, the book said 'Preacher'. Not a 'Church Preacher'. Preachers exist throughout the world in different religions. There was never an indication that he was a Christian Preacher.

Also the 'implication' of Abrahamic God does not exist. Like I said up there "Chiron states that the gods and God are different- saying that the gods are 'a small matter' ,which we can assume is in comparison to God." This implies that Greek gods and God- not the same thing, meaning they dont cross each other out so you kinda can have both at the same time.

Again like I said above, it's very likely that they see what they want to see..or these otherwordly beings appear in a way that the mortal brain can stand. In all incarnations of Abrahamic texts, God is never really described (because how the heck do you describe God). I can counter that by saying that God- by extension, the Angels/Demons (depends on the text and story) are simply appearing in a way that allows the simple human mind to understand. Some Abrahamic texts state that if humans were to see the true forms of demons/angels, they would lose there minds at the sight of them.

But once again, Eh. I wont go to far into the metaphysical.

And if you want my to two cents on Religion. I go by the phrase. "In every belief, there lies some sense of the truth. It's the same story, just told by different people." Makes it easier to accept other beliefs.

(I would also like to point out that you are using a character in a children's book to make God obsolete. Just saying.)

Finally this behemoth "I don't care, religion means nothing to me, it does not deserve nor shall it receive special deference."

Well, it's my personal belief that people act in accordance to how they want to be treated. So you insensitive little prick, I hope you do realise that you did in fact initiate an unprovoked attack. Meaning, you were in fact, asking for trouble. So don't go around complaining about other people.

That is all. *poof*
