I like it. I think it can work across many religions as well.
It makes me think of the Christian idea from Genesis where we are made from God's image. Since Genesis is in the Torah, I would imagine that would fit in accordance with Jewish beliefs as well.
It certainly corresponds to the Hindu goal of spiritual perfection to end the cycle of reincarnation.
Not entirely sure how it would fit into Buddhism, since they technically don't worship a god. Then again, I guess the enlightenment they seek is a form of divinity . . . . but seeking implies that they aren't there, which contradicts the statement. Hmmm . . . . this one I'll have to think more on.
Forgive my naivete for not knowing how fully it extends to other religions like Confucianism, Taoism, etc. Simply that it can span a few of the major ones is impressive to me.
