from a recent article:

	The statement "God does what He wants ... for no other purpose than to
	bring Himself glory" does NOT say that God's ONLY motivation is
	self-glory but rather that His PRIMARY motivation is His glory.

i don't understand.  the quote says "no other purpose".  surely this is
synonymous with "only purpose".
perhaps we disagree that "purpose" means "motivation" here?  or that "his
glory" is the same as "self-glory" when god is the glory-maker?
(god is not himself?  well, we all have days like that.)
