As I may have discussed earlier, my problem with monotheism in general, is that logically a spiritual absolute would be the essence of sentience, from which we rise, not an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell.

It's just that as linear, goal oriented creatures, we are all about extracting the signal from the noise and consequently loose much of the context giving meaning to signal in the first place.

Ideals are not absolutes. Pantheism gave us democracy and republicanism, monotheism gave us the divine right of kings.
