People being people however this process of pointing often mixes up with politics and power and gets it totally wrong. But it would be a mistake then to throw out the baby with the bath-water. The point the finger is pointing at is still there, and there are lots lots! of really good things going on and brilliant thoughts being made within Christianity which still point in its direction and which could only have emerged within its institutional context.

The main weakness of your I am God-view is ? according to me - precisely that: if I take only myself as a measuring tool for what is good or bad, I can easily make myself believe anything that suits me, and even justify serial murders as, say, my own artistic contribution to life. Peoples and my own thoughts and behaviour convinced me that there is something like an universal truth or goodness to which we are drawn not I am God, but God is in me and I have to find him/her.

While finding it is my own responsibility, Im also convinced that I cant go that walk alone, and need the help, support and thoughts of others in the process. And even though I never surrendered my self-critical attitude, I have found the major faith traditions to be a great help in this. Not an Antichrist, but a Critical Christian, if you see what I mean. Just as Im wary of overimposed authority, Im also sceptical towards radical individualism and wholesale condemnations.
