Everybody cares about The Divine, because there is only The Divine.
God-ideas are now THE hot topic in the culture wars.
Wright is not talking or writing about The Divine (or Real God) but about the development of the various god-ideas in the now archaic Semitic traditions.
Nor is anyone else for that matter.
But what about all the rest of the non-Semitic Traditions?
By contrast this reference provides a template for a serious investigation of all the usual god-ideas and the religions that extend from them.

Plus this reference gives a more sophisticated introduction to the best of the best ancient Reality Teachings.
Dear Anonymous, I would be keen to hear how you think one goes about investigating "god-ideas". What is the body of evidence one must appeal to as one seeks to ascertain which god-ideas are veridical and which ones are not?
Today my self-esteem hit an all time low when I stumbled across an argument proving conclusively that I don't exist. I’m quite distressed. This probably explains why my jeans are so loose-fitting. What’s equally upsetting is that I learned that non-existence does not exempt one from local or federal taxes.
