Well, L, as I just mentioned to the Jews, he was "our God" too

You agree that the Jews and you believe in the same God? How about the Catholics? The Mormons? The Moslems? If you think they believe in other Gods, can you explain why? I am especially interested in the differentiation between the Catholic God and the Jewish God.

Well, L, as I just mentioned to the Jews, he was "our God" too "The Lord, our God, is one"...you're not sending an e-mail to all the Jewish synagogues of the world asking them if they are displaying "tribalism" are you?

Now that you mention it, Judaism is almost the definition of Tribalism. They are God's chosen people aren't they? Do you feel left out knowing that your God loves them more?

(I mean what? You think man created mathematical realities, or do you think man discovered mathematical realities???...which is it, Mr. LeGrande? Do mathematical realities transcend man, LeGrande, or were they invented by man?)

Man created math, the same as he created God and religion, and for the same reason, to understand the world and universe.

Yes, we both worship the God of Isaac, Jacob and Abraham. (Certainly, if you know the Old Testament, God was always disciplining the Israelites for everything from idolatry to...you name it...so certainly, not every Jewish person worships the God of Isaac, Jacob & Abraham. Jesus referenced the Pharisees in John 8, for example, of being of their father, the devil. So Jesus didn't take kindly to religious legalists).

How about the Catholics?

Yes, same God...same caveat as one of the Jews & Protestants, etc. IOW, can't vouch for every Catholic, Protestant or Jew out there...but generally, yes.

Mormons & Muslims?

Well, I get back to you on a post on that. But "No, I don't worship a glorified man who was never divine to begin with." And, "No, I don't worship any deity who was simply one member among many other gods as part of a divine 'council of gods.'"
