    @h-jones  Hello! Sorry for rudely barging in.  (Newcomer here.) Hey, I’m sorry about bringing up such an old thread, but this was one of those wake-up-at-two-in-the-morning-with-a-brilliant-idea sort of ideas.  Except I don’t know how brilliant it is.   I can’t really picture God as a bear, but how about a whale?  Because they are majestic, large, powerful, intelligent, sympathetic creatures that can’t always be seen because they live in a ocean-realm we don’t live in.  And as for a sacrificial death he could save them from … a tsunami… or something?  I don’t know, there’s just something mystical about a whale.  To me, anyway.

    I think you were thinking of a bear because C.S. Lewis used a lion, and so you were thinking, I need a powerful animal…lions,tigers, bears (oh my!).  Ok, Bears! Am I right?
