These related lines from Benjamin Sledge's article ( https://benjaminsledge.medium.com/lets-talk-about-those-he-gets-us-superbowl-ads-dbe8065c8df6 ) struck me:

1) "You see, the problem isn’t that God doesn’t care about the people of India. You don’t."

2) "This phenomenon is more common than we care to acknowledge. In the words of Blaise Pascal, the mathematician and theologian, 'God made man in his own image, and man returned the compliment.' This highlights the uncomfortable truth of our tendency to create a distorted image of God that aligns with our own self-image. If we project our own likeness onto Jesus, we risk fashioning a deity in our own image, rather than the other way around."
