I stand corrected for my gross overstatement. Indeed, other monotheist religions also adhere to less transcendent beliefs. No offense intended. I myself believe in the imminence of divinity and am, frankly a bit perplexed by any other belief.

I do not see this as imminence. Plenty of Biblical interpreters do not see
these as indicators of imminence.
