well, at least the Good News is that no mere mortal can kill a Real (True) God. now, ol antelope snipe is correct in his understanding that mankind has been killin' off gods from nearly the beginning. the numbers are constantly shrinking. they, or most of them might actually go extinct some day, like the tasmanian tiger, or dodo bird or passenger pigeon.

a constant sorting has been going on for aeons, just like with the diverse number of human languages that are out there. but, it's all for good reason. as a side thought, might we all be better off if every swingin' dick & harry on the globe spoke (& understood) the same language?
