It is not good that Man should be alone, they said. And in their ignorance they succumbed to the holy temptation and they created a god. In their own image they created him; Frail and faulty they created him; selfish and power hungry they created him. Then they looked upon him whom they had created and it was not good. They loathed him and mocked him. They spoke all manner of evil against him. For they looked upon him and saw a reflection ...of themselves.
