40. A reflection of one's opinions perhaps, but not necessarily other traits.
Edited on Sun Apr-25-10 09:57 PM by ZombieHorde
For example: a man may believe god frowns upon adultery, but this man may still commit adultery because he is flawed.

This man's god probably does not break his own moral codes even though the believer does break his own moral code.

The opinion, "adultery is bad," is reflected in the god, but not the flaw.

I hope that makes sense.
