And yet for the believer in Christ, believing He even now fills our hearts, His life is transforming our own. And his name is proclaimed throughout the whole world.

Where are all those gods, Gadget? Where are the god-men and what can one find in their graves?

You can find them in any library or any art work from the areas of the culture that they influenced. Why are there so many American Buddhists if Jesus's story was the only one going worldwide? You choose to believe in that one, that doesn't make it the only real way. It is a valuable system to work with for inner growth and transformation, but it certainly isn't the only one that is. And in actuality, those who are following exoteric Christianity are not usually working the inner tradition that Jesus entrusted to only a chosen few. They are following the dogma and doctrine of a corrupt power system.
