If there is no personal God who "shared these bits of His personality with us," where did we get them?</b><br /><br />A <b><i>FAR</i></b> more interesting question is why does God have a personality, desires, emotions, etc?<br />There are good reasons for why humans have desires, emotions and personalities (due to our evolutionary heritage, and our limited and fallible natures).<br />God on the other hand is supposedly neither limited nor fallible, nor does he have any evolutionary heritage. A being such as God can seemingly have no desires, since this being would want for nothing.<br /><i>"It is a testament to our narcissism as a species that so few humans are embarrassed to assign to divinity the attributes of a male alpha primate."</i><br /><br />.
