American Gods - Religions are Metaphors - Neil Gaiman

This quote was added by vmlm
Religions are, by definition, metaphors, after all: God is a dream, a hope, a woman, an ironist, a father, a city, a house of many rooms, a watchmaker who left his prize chronometer in the desert, someone who loves you - even, perhaps, against all evidence, a celestial being whose only interest is to make sure your football team, army, business, or marriage thrives, prospers and triumphs... Religions are places to stand and look and act, vantage points from which to view the world.
