text: Another fine column which does not forgive religious dogma that encourages murder.   
  
  Any 'message' from God has very human characteristics.  There's a  source/origin of a statement and we have the persons who receives it.    We don't have the option of asking God "You talkin' to me?', but we often feel convicted or encouraged by our early religious teaching.   
  
  Our human side seems intent on modeling God after us, not accepting that God's agape love embraces us before we chose to accept it.
  
  Of course the images of God are as common as weeds in the sidewalk - and that's just in the Christian church.    No church member is rejected by God, but many are caste aside by Church leadership that demands compliance to a very narrow definition of God.   These ideologies generally say more about  religious arrogance than they do about the spirit of God.
