...During my young years... there was a mental wall between religion and God. I could walk around inside religion and never, on any sort of emotional level, understand that God was a person, an actual Being with thoughts and feelings and that sort of thing. To me, God was more of an idea. It was something like a slot machine, a set of spinning images that
dolled out rewards based on behavior and, perhaps, chance. --from a book called Blue Like Jazz, interesting thought in this season when we celebrate that God came down.
