because from others point of view saying that you have discovered what the ultimate truth about everything is makes you either sound insane or very pretentious. there really isnt anything more opposite to humility than to claim to know who the creator is and what he thinks and then telling others that you want to save them from their pitiful state of ignorance.

@riseofthemachine in the advaita vedanta branch of hinduism they believe that it is impossible to know god. they have an expression which is "neti neti" which means " not this,not that", basically means anytime you thing you just understood god,its not that,whatever you think about it, its not that. i am a agnostic and sort of an advaita, and one of the reasons is to stay humble and another reason is out of respect for a god unknown. i think waving a book saying "this is what he thinks" is blasphemy.to me the bible,the coran, the Torah and i would throw in the Bagavad gita are blasphemous books for claiming to represent god, they are in a sense unautorised biographies, hahaha.
