If I knew Latin I would sure have a lot of time on my hands...

So do you know this for a fact because you are a God, or are you in
direct contact with some higher source of power?

Then why presume to make assumptions about what it does and does not
believe in?

Western religions? LOL, that's funny. At last check you can find
almost ANY religious practice in America. Heck we got em all,
Buddhists, Christians, Nihilists, Wiccans, Hindus, Darwinists, etc,
etc, etc. I mean really, try and name a single religion that isn't
practiced by at least one person in America.

I once read Hank The Cow Dog...but then I guess that doesn't really
make me any more enlightened than you or the rest of the world... : \
