Exactly...

I recently heard an interesting assessment of the relationship of Man to
God (as in any God a person has) and it basically states that normal
people believe in the truth of any God insofar as it matches their
particular lifestyle. The story and the players in this example are
classic. Here the players are all about getting laid so the significance
and reality of God is meaningful to the extent it serves a function in
describing...  Getting laid...

So if this is profound we can all participate in profundity as God is
merely a function of what is going on in our own lives. So there must be
a simple formula... For us all to be profound...

Dios Reducto, Dios Minimo, Dios Nullo, Dios ME...

My faux Latin is bad but I think that will work quite nicely for anyone
who's God is bounded by the particular circumstances in their own
lives...
