- "Religion has tended to use "God" primarily as a means of controlling our lives. When we diminish God in this way, it's no wonder that we lose the capacity for awe and wonder. In a very real sense, we turn our God, the living God who has been acclaimed as the creator of the cosmos and the redeemer of those who trust him, into just another version of Baal."
