The idea that ' Man Created God in His Own Image' is a favourite canard of the aggressive atheist and many genuine believers tend to get rather hot under the collar whenever it is heard stated.The problem is that the idea contains a sprinkling of truth - in one part of the Church, at least.
If we consider liberal christians, this is precisely what they do do. The egregious Professor Richard Dawkins - for whose salvation I continue praying daily - is quick to point out how many 'christians' indulge in what he calls 'cherrypicking'.
For once that sad man is perfectly correct.
Liberal Christians are extremely selective about what 'they choose to believe'.
If a pure, scriptural truth is not liked because it offends liberal left sensibilities - it will be summarily abandoned.
'God is only right when intelligent enough to have attitudes which happen to coincide with the views of the liberal church.'
Why do they bother at all, I ask myself.
