I'm pretty sure everyone figured that out, but you.
Sheesh. Up too late last night dancing in your duck suit?
And, yes, it does resonate with my spirit.

Okay. Thanks for the clarification.
Here's the thing, Igzy.. When you juxtaposed that comment between points one and three it is perfectly congruent with that same line of thinking. For instance, you talk about the self just being what our attitude is toward it. You contradict the Lord's direct command to deny yourself. And smack dab in the middle of those two gems you make this comment about making ourselves gods. It's all man-centered doctrine no matter how you look at it.
