Delusions of Godhood

First off is the word 'you'. "[i]You[/i] can be your own God." This is so misinterpreted, it's almost not funny. Sure. Some people have the potential to shake the herd mentality and become ruler of their own lives. It could even be figured (on an optimistic day) that [i]everyone[/i] has that potential, even if it's unrealized. If we follow that train of thought out (or at least in my slightly askew way of looking at it), we need to connect the words [i]you[/i] and [i]God[/i]. If [i]you[/i] are your own [i]God[/i], then you're just being yourself and running your own life. Easy enough right? Common sense to any Satanist, right? Sure...but what if [i]you[/i] are a loser that's incapable of running

The other thing about the "You can be your own God." quote that I want to mention (and I'll make this one shorter...I promise) are the words [i]your own[/i]. That means you are God of [i]your[/i] life...not anyone elses. If you want to worship yourself and praise yourself...fine. Just don't get so wrapped up in your devine grandeur that you don't realize that the God next to you is about to kick your ass if you don't sit down, shut up and act like a gentleman. This is especially true when you're in another God's temple. If we're all Gods, a little respect and foresight might save us from having another God's trident/lightning bolt/pitchfork shoved in our tookus.

a toaster, let alone an entire life? It stands to reason, then, that your [i]God[/i] is a loser as well. Not all men are created equal, so not all Gods are equal either. I think the error I've seen with this quote is that people tend to read it as "
