Who's Our God?

Christian or Christian? Does one worship God or does God worship oneself? These are questions everyone who calls themselves Christian should ask. This is so, because one might notice this about the world:

Liberals -
Those who desire that they should be gods.

Conservatives -
Those who desire that God should be like them.

Both of these are different approaches to the same thing: a desire to be like God. What causes this? Pride. Pride is the ugly sin in which we are all guilty of to different degrees. Pride decrees oneself to be infallible; pride tells oneself that they are the judges, even if only of themselves - it is certainly a terrible thing for one to not realize that they are, in fact, proud. We are all proud, and need to beg God for humility. And so, I will add a third category:

Catholicism -
Those who realize that humanity is weak and need the guidance of God's Church.

And some are on the way.
