Cod, then, is not, as many of us have been taught to believe, a big personage or man residing somewhere in a beautiful region in the sky called heaven, where good people go when they die and see him clothed with ineffable glory; nor is he a stern, angry judge only waiting an opportunity somewhere to punish bad people who have failed to live a per feet life here.
