EA Miller EA Miller “It's really quite simple. An all-powerful all-knowing personal loving God could (and would surely want to) reveal him/her/itself in a way that is clear to every human & unmistakably true to every generation and every corner of the world. Religions are complex & geographical.” -Tim Sledge

EA Miller EA Miller Christians:

Dr. Idel Dreimer Dr. Idel Dreimer God's "perfection" is the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card. Is God contradictory, unreliable, and uncaring? Are his motivations muddled, his creation cruel, and his second coming inordinately delayed? Don't worry -- his wisdom his infinite -- yours temporal and flawed. Tolerance of the perfection evasion varies according to the need for a comforting illusion. (Observation #1604)
Dr. Idel Dreimer Dr. Idel Dreimer "God" represents the attempt to tame the unfathomable, bizarre mystery of the universe -- to give it a comforting "human" face. (Observation #1603)

Me: “Curious how “iron” is mentioned and not something much stronger such as steel or titanium. It’s almost as if ancient goat herders made up this Christ character.”
EA Miller EA Miller TV Pastor: “I am more concerned with what God thinks about me than what people think about me.”

What I hear: “I am more concerned about what Santa Claus thinks about me than what people think about me.”

EA Miller EA Miller The TRUE power of prayer...
