@ghost-of-a-duke saidActually there was a tradition of personal deification in pre-conciliar Christianity.
Let's be clear here. Sonship, for some time, has been drip feeding the notion into this forum that we are demi-gods, mingled with the divine. That we (Christians at least) have become God-ized.
A favourite scriptural reference he will pluck out is 'sons of God.' He will then use his favourite analogy. 'A son of a horse is a horse.'
When challenged about his be ...[text shortened]... reating demi-gods. A Christian's ultimate destiny, apparently, is to become a Persius or a Hercules.
Sorry that I don't have refs at hand, but on the other hand, whatever happened to panentheism?
