GODS & Deities : The argument of Gods, is to defeat the spirituality and complete picture of what the perception of God is. All seeing, all being, all connected. Which means, even the scum of the earth in all their imperfection, are created in the construct of God, and thus, even as you smite them, you are killing Gods creation, regardless of how morally confused and misguided they may be. As all the laws and rules of religion are made by men, driven by ego, that their definition is the ultimate truth, when no one has proof, other than we MUST be all connected somehow. This is the same as one cultures name, and label of a thing, is right, versus the name and label of another culture for the same thing. All are right, the rules can still be morally wrong, which is expected, as these rules are made by sinful and power hungry, greedy humans that desire to mind control their followers. Thus in the words of all prophets, be a leader of men, not a follower. To be a follower without question, is to betray God.
