I've read a bio of Russell, and he seems to be quite an ass with regards to his relationships with women. So I wouldn't want him to be a god or idol. His works, on the other hand, are superb! I have three of his books, all read and reread for their sheer brilliance.

I choose my god based on resemblances to myself and nothing else.

I believe the exchange between Benard and Peter has been completed and this is heading off-topic. I am closing this thread.
