I'm sorry, M. ted, but I don't follow the argument -- the whole of modern Christianity asserts a monotheistic Godhead which took a conscious role in affairs on planet Earth, including "having a Son", whatever that means to an infinite being, and "sending him" (ditto) "down" to represent "him" in the affairs of human beings. This is about the extreme of theism, unless you are making a point too subtle for me to grasp. Especially when you take into account all the third-person-male-singular personification with which we have lambasted our spawn into acceptable conduct over the centuries. How theistic could it get?
