Richard,

There's nothing more disappointing than someone who hopes for the existence of a vengeful and angry Being who is bidding the time that he can exercise his wrath. It doesn't make any sense at all to me, but go figure.

>>>3. There is one god but the messages get distorted by human interpretation and by the political aims of religious leaders. As a corrallory, scripture is not the word of god.

4. The Moses option is that contradictory scripture are both true if we understand the underlying principle that makes both statements true.>I prefer a set of beliefs that are consistent with as many religions as possible, as well as science.
