This entry needs review for clear correspondence with the source material. And for clarity: that first section, "not the old God" has a built-in ambiguity. Can we move all these lists to this page?  And replace with quotes from the teaching? We have a rough guideline about the length of a citation, but what about the cumulative effect when all the quotes come from one teaching?  Does the entire page need to be blanked and the content put elsewhere?  --[[User:Mary s|Mary s]] 16:01, 19 April 2012 (PDT)
