A Conversation for What is God?
Deity as a Dictator
Comfortably Numb!! Started conversation Aug 5, 2004
Refer to the paragraph that says Deity as a Dictator. The comparison assumes significance if and only if religion is proscribed as an organized activity. On the other hand if a person is free to choose his or her religion and his/her concept of God, the comparison stems weak.
If an organization actively seeks converts with a view that their vision of God is REAL and that of the others is a farcical imagination, it could be classified as being fascist. God then assumes the persona of the preachers or proponents of that theory and "loses" his existence.
