The God ideal has been regarded by different men differently. Some have idealized God as the king of earth and heaven. Some have a conception of God as a person; others think of God as an abstraction. Some believe in God, others do not. Some raise the ideal of the deity to the highest heaven; others bring it down to the lowest depth of earth. Some picture God in paradise; others make an idol and worship it. There are many ideas and many beliefs and different names, such as pantheism, idolatry, belief in a formless God, or belief in many gods and goddesses. But all are striving after something in one way or another.
