Have I "fabricated" monotheistic theology? Nah, I'm critiquing it.

There is a divide between exoteric and esoteric conceptions of God, but the point is that the more you reflect on the former, the more you're supposed to end up with the latter. I'm critiquing the former from an esoteric perspective.

The esoteric, mystical perspective doesn't entail that nothing whatsoever should be said about religion. It entails that we shouldn't take religious metaphors as though they were literal truths. I'm showing that some religious metaphors, however, are more plausible than others (without themselves being literal truths).
