"A new generation of believers wants to find a God who dwells outside the boundaries of their own religious tradition, a God that would be worth worshiping. They are torn. They have discovered that God's presence or involvement with humanity is so obviously greater than their own religion. At the same time, they have discovered that the more they cling to their respective traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam... they have to accept their traditions...as God management systems" - Samir Selmanovic

How about this one? - from the same guy
"I used to think that God's choice of depositing the ultimate truth in my religion was a wonderful mystery. How glorious, I thought, that God would actually put together a religion to carry the ultimate truth to the world! Yes, others would have truth too, but no the ultimate one, I thought, thrilled that it was we Christians who were chosen for the top task. We were the ambassadors of God on earth.
Whoever has not tried this drink, I think, has never been properly drunk. What can possibly compare to being in charge of God? Of course, we never said, "Listen everyone, we are in charge of God." Like drunks, we would deny even thinking such a thing, to both others and to ourselves."
