A plea for the Christian faith in the era of so-called Postmodernism. It introduces the term of autotheism as an analysis of the sin-sickness that has been upon us since the Fall of man. This essay begins with an attempt to arrange the main religions under common denominators and subsequently counters them with a Christian apology. Preface: Many people know Jesus only as a cuss word. The word sin is thought to be used by overly religious folks. The communists in the former USSR considered religion a disease to be treated in a re-education camp. Nobody has ever seen God. Yet the Bible claims that some did and talked about it. A loving God would not torture people in hell. Yet Christ Jesus warned about a fire in the afterlife that cannot be quenched. He cannot have talked about some coal fire. Therefore it must be some kind of soul fire. The 8 Main Ideas About God: Religions are summed up as being 8 in number; monotheism, mysticism, pantheism, polytheism, rationalism, agnostic materialism, the antireligion atheism and Satanism. The Christian form of monotheism is seen as the truth, from which the other isms deviate on the right and on the left, with Satanism as the nadir of depravity. Mysticism is seen as an overly emotional dedication of the soul, pantheism as too impersonal and polytheism as a hopeless attempt to please capricious gods. This as worsening forms of aberration on the right. On the left rationalism is an exaggeration of reason, agnostic materialism as a pursuit of goods and services that in the end cannot satisfy and atheism as a pluck-the-day philosophy that gives you no hope in the end. Satanism is a hate reaction against a God who is seen as totally unreasonable and evil is preached as a good in itself. But if Satan is to be our liberator, then the God of Judeo-Christianity is far more powerful; for He made his royal badness. And so Satanists can never hope to escape His fury. Why We Humans Are Lost In Ourselves: In the end every form of philosophy, religion, science and politics ends or at best takes on a new jacket. The heart of the problem is autotheism. We all want to play god in our worlds, big or small. We want to go it alone and either reason God away or change His image into something we are comfortable with. This idolatry of self is doomed and is bound to incur the wrath of an all-holy God. If Napoleon had had space ships, he had wanted to be pronounced god. Mormons actually preach that their adherents can attain divinity.
