You see, this ties in to what Mad Dawg meant (I think) by an expanded notion of God. If I didn't know better -- if all I had to go on was religion threads on FR, I would think Protestants have a little-tin-god-and-"redeemer" in their pockets, no bigger or more inconvenient than a Blackberry, sort of like a Chatty Cathy who parrots a limited number of phrases with no understanding of more than mechanical phrases.
Fortunately, I've studied, for example, Milton and the Metaphysicals, Dean Swift and Dr. Johnson, etc. so I don't think that. And if I want to understand the Protestant mind, I'd rather listen to Milton!
