You set up a beautiful straw man (wanting power as a cure for
insecurity) and then procede to knock it down. Aside from that
I think all your points are well taken, especially your tests
for godhood.


As for bootstrapping oneself into godhood, I like the point
you make. You really can't put something there that's not there
already. But a person CAN discover and develop his LATENT and
HERETOFOR UNKNOWN abilities.
