I think it's dangerous to think of ourselves as archetypes of God or any other "super-hero." At the most, we can only emulate them. We'll never have their "magic" powers, and they are not our servants in life.

I place humans in the number one category because I think it should be a given that God (by whatever name or symbol) comes first - it's our "base." Mankind, Mother Earth, and all living things are on first - THEN we get to head for "home."

I don't think we were placed on this earth to spend our lives pretending to be God, fantasizing about heaven, or focusing only on the sins of others.
