of their understanding and included an «unknown» God in their worship structure.many cultures did likewise, having a glimpse
of God but not the fullness
of understanding that was given to the Jews.Whether or not «we» believe, does not alter the
fact that God exists as an unique being, whether or not «we» acknowledge Him «we» will stand before Him.You do not choose to understand, but we are actually standing in His presence right now as He is much bigger than the doctrines and knowledge man ascribes to Him those things you find so questionable are the misconceptions and misrepresentations
