Bible Note: Yeah, I've heard that story for many years now... What most supporters of that theory seem to misunderstand is that the prophet is talking about a vision, a revelation that he has had about God's Divinity. The human mind is unable to grasp so many finite things (love, respect, friendship, obligations, life) and yet we want to discern that which is infinite (God's Power, Escense, Plans). Instead of searching for meaning (what the vision means, why was it given, why such aparition...) some of us seek a meaning that we can contain and discipher without needing the Creator's assistance!
