of course not. I think those that believe there's only "one way" are pretty sad and narrow minded.

Yes. It does sound narrow minded but it's just what I believe. I'm a Christian and I believe that Jesus is the only way. That being said, if you read the bible you'll find that mankind was created all the same. It was man's sin that separated them from God and eventually each other. This led to other languages, religions, etc. The thing I've found when talking to other people about Jesus and the bible is that for most people, Jesus isn't the part that is hard to grasp. It's usually the faith that the bible is God's inerrant word and that it was inspired by Him and has survived, been canonized, and translated all without the tampering of man because of His will. Why would God allow this to happen? Well He gave humans free will. He already had a multitude of followers without free will, He wanted a people who would love Him by choice. It breaks His heart that some don't, but the heart of God is one ruled by justice. Love and justice really aren't that different if both were truly pure. He doesn't want a people who believe in Jesus and do good things and love Him. He wants a people that want to want to do those things. Like the song says " I want you to want me" Cheap Trick had it right. That's essentially the entire message of the bible. I guess all that I'm trying to say is, it's up to you to choose what you believe in. I happen to believe that God would want you to choose Jesus.

The question presupposes that God has infinite ways of doing things, and not particular ways of doing things. In a sense, you've already ascribed to a transcendent Aristotelian God, who must offer the same things to everyone, everywhere, at all time. But is that God? And how do we know?

By god, do you mean Kratos? Because I think he was just pissed and angry at all the betrayal -- plus he always kind of seemed unhinged to begin with.
