Let history record that it was Vandergraaf who was the first to
state the obvious about Hammond's discovery.
BTW, you don't by any chance have a famous relative named
Van de Graaf who invented the legendary Van de Graaf generator,
the World's first particle accelerator, do you?

Clear thinking, and very much to the point. Yes, this discovery
confirms what everybody already suspects, that the "supreme deity" of
every major religion is one and the same. He simply goes by different
names in different cultures; God, Allah, Jehovah, Buddha Spirit, Vishnu,
Great Sky Chief, etc. etc.
In short, the answer to your question is "yes" there is only
one "generic God" and all religions are worshiping one and the same God.
For the more technically inquisitive, science has discovered that
in Psychometry there is a hierarchy of psychological factors
(eigenvectors), referred to as the 1st,2nd,3rd and 4th order Factors.
There are no factors beyond the 4th order, and:
1st order: Approx. 30 factors (demigods)
2nd order: 14 Factors (Greco-Roman-Egyptian Pantheon)
3rd order: 4 Factors (4-Gospel 'Saints')
4th order: 1 Factor (God, Allah, Jehovah, etc.)
The entire history of religion is a history of the slow discovery
of this hierarchy. The most sophisticated religions (Christianity,
Judaism, Islam) have clearly reached the single 4th order factor
which is the God of the Bible.
The Eastern religions being more primitive, still include the
"lesser gods", the 2nd, and in the case of Hinduism, even the
1st order factors. Note that Christianity also gives great
reverence to the 4-3rd orders, known as "Matt, Mark, Luke
and John" (these also exist at the 2nd order since they are
orthogonal eigenvectors, i.e. the metrical eigenvectors BTW).
However, it is safe to say, that in the year 2000, ALL of
the world's major religions have clearly recognized the existence
of the single 4th order factor (first discovered by Akhenaton
and Moses BTW), as the central "God" of religious worship.
There is no serious question that the "entire world" when it
references "religion", is in fact referring to the single
4th order factor, which is commonly called "God" in the West.

Yes. This is a preliminary paper announcing the discovery of the
Structural Model in Psychometry, and the basic structural physics
discovery upon which the scientific proof of God rests:
HAMMOND G.E. (1994), The Cartesian Theory, in: New Ideas In Psychology,
Vol 12(2), pp 153-167, Pergamon Press
For your convenience, and to save you a trip to the library,
a copy has been place online, fully illustrated, at:

Three years later, I discovered that this discovery, when added
to the discovery of "IQ" (the 4th dimension of the metric),
immediately leads to a simple and elegant scientific proof of God.

[Hammond]
No.... I am simply a Michael Faraday type, or a Thomas Edison.
My fascinating discovery is based on the heavy lifting done
by Einstein, Freud, Eysenck, Cattell, Thurstone and many
other "real scientists". For Pete's sake someone would take
me for the doorman if seen in the company of such great men.
