Which is an article of Faith. Which again, proves my point.
There is as much evidence for the existence of Zeus as there is Jehovah. In fact, same for Shiva, Odin, Thor, the Great Spirit, Vishnu, Enki, and any number of others.
Only our personal faith tells us which one might be "right" for us.
Or does it? As I theorize, could they all hold "part" of the truth? That not only do Deities exist, but that our place relative to them has less to do with any one particular religions edicts than we conceitedly think.

There is far more evidence for the God of Israel than for those others. Apparently you haven't looked very closely at the evidence. I'm not talking about some personal feel-good mush, I'm talking about objective fact. I'm talking about measurable reality.
I have no patience with a faith that's right "for me." There may be issues of practice that can center around me, but theology centers around God. We find Him (or rather, He finds us) as He is, not as we'd like Him to be.

I reject the ages-old "blind men and the elephant" story on the grounds that 1) the blind men can show each other why they hold the opinion they do and 2) in this case, the Elephant can speak for Himself. So, while it is possible that all religions have some part of the real God in them, one has the most complete picture and no errors.
Anyone who is serious about God has no problems figuring out which truth claims to accept. You just start with the fact that they claim to be statements of reality and take it from there.
That's why I said I had more than enough intelligence for that exercise, even though I don't have nearly enough to figure God out for myself.
