But where Catholics and Nicene Protestants differ from Hinduism is that the former believe God literally and truly became Incarnate. If that is granted, then every thing CHANGES (to use a frequently utilized word!).<br /><br />Sean<br /><br />Sean M.

I can only hope my comments about Poul Anderson's "Night Piece" interests some readers. That Anderson story was VERY hard to understand and write about!<br /><br />I admit to not really understanding why some say they prefer polytheism to monotheism.
