Joseph Campbell, in the work/semi-autobiography "The Hero's Journey" explained something to me that finally rang true...He stated this simple but supremely enlightening statement: "God is a metaphor for The Mystery that absolutely transcends all human categories of thought, even the categories of being and not-being (those are also categories)...It's as simple as that".
In other words...there's no vaidity to the "My God's bigger and better than Your God" maxim.
