Because you have built your belief structure from many sources doesn't make it any more original. And again the atheist arrogance (however unintentional) - what makes you think that I have done any less thinking or soul searching along my path than you have done on yours?

Your effort to clarify and correct any inaccuracies you perceive in your sources is doomed to fail - not because you're not equally capable as any other human being, but because you are equally fallible. And it's what separates my God from yours - I believe in an infallible God, so my goal is to align myself with one ultimate truth, not be blown around like a leaf in whatever wind happens by. Custom-building "truth" from whatever sources jibe with your current desires and whims is the downfall of atheism, and frankly, most major Christian denominations.
