Default Re: OT: What\'s your religeon?

summery of Alarikf "robert alter" dialogue.

Man made a literary "god" to help him with his social problems around him.

So its not important that "god" was there to make creation. (since the denial of that premise is already agreed upon.) But that "man" made the text to help organize the chaos of mankind's existence.

So religious "supernatural" experience is divorced from the equation and the literary explanations of the Authors is emphasized.
