Oh, wait... they changed that around when they adopted it for Christianity, right?

Yeah, like the whole one God thing was so original. At least ours can pull some Devastator type shit and be three people at once.

Yeah the OT God is pretty brutal; genocide, murder, all that stuff.

OT God was what I imagine Dick Cheney would be like with unlimited power.

I have the strangest mental image of Dick Cheney as Emperor Palpatine, yelling "Unlimited Power!!!" while shooting lightning from his hands.

Forgot to mention: We've just about passed 10,000 posts in this thread. Awesome.

Shinto believes in one sun goddess, but "the 8 million kami." In any event, I said "for the region."
