Me too. I say, the only thing factual about the world is that you/we are thinking about it, one way or another. That's about as real as it gets. It's not a rational thought...sparked by an irrational emotion.

So this is sin. This is what the "prodigal son" says to himself as he leaves home. It's not true. But damned if he isn't going to prove it's true. So he transforms himself into *many*. And the many, professing to be wise, became fools, "and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an...

Well, this is what sin is all about. The denial of what is true, followed up by a justification why what is not true should be true. And this is how the world begins. The physical worlds justify the idea that we are separated from God...making it seem believable. But nothing can separate us...

Well, people are shopping for the "right" god anyway! I say shop according to some core values. People are finding god(s) that reflect their current value system...a superficial value system. I'm saying, don't waste time with any god that has even a tinge of fear associated with it. For...

That's been my motto since, I don't know, 1997...and it's paid off. Essentially, it differentiates between a god of fear and a GoD of Love...and accepts no mixing of these two opposites. The only way there can be a GoD of Love is if the world is something we do to ourselves as we...

Motto: Don't look for a god to believe in. Look for a God who believes in you. It's kind of cliche because the true God does not believe in anything. God knows all. And God knows you...as you are...not as you believe yourself to be. Those who are awakening must put their faith in...

Exactly. The story was embellished to make it look like the old priesthood sacrificed the priest of the new priesthood. The truth is that Pilate specifically wanted to crucify Jesus on the Passover to show the Jews who was boss in the region. The gospel scribe had an agenda. And this...

Right. Allah is the father of time...galaxies, stars, planets...and biological existence. This is not the "Father" that Jesus spoke of. So, no, Jesus is not the son of Allah. Neither is Jesus really the son of the "Father" he spoke of. Rather, Christ is the Son of the "Father" Jesus...

The god of the bible is the god of time. See, it says, "In the beginning, god...". This is speaking of "father time"...and his domain: "the world". The difference between father time and *Our Father* is that father time is the father of all that is temporary, and *Our Father* is the...

Christ is outside of time with God. The bible is inside of time with the god of all time ("father time".) The father of time is not *Our Father*. If you anchor yourself to Christ...outside of time...you anchor to a rock. If you anchor yourself to the bible...inside of time... you...

Thanks for the making millions idea. Yes, God is outside of time, just as Christ is outside of a tomb. Get it? Time and tomb are synonymous. All of time is a tomb for a "dead" Christ..."born to die"..."from womb to tomb". But time-life is not lifetime at all! A risen Christ means...

In order to bring this dead metaphor back to life, I will interpret it correctly...NOW. Jesus is a metaphor for "us". But then, who are "we"? We are "Christ crucified". The story of Jesus is the story of everyone and everything this side of the "big bang"...which is a metaphor for a...

jem, see wikipedia about different kinds of metaphor...especially "dead metaphor": Quote from Wikipedia: "A dead metaphor is one in which the sense of a transferred image is not present. Example: "to grasp a concept" or "to gather what you've understood" Both of these phrases use a...

Greetings Easterites! Here is a picture from an upcoming movie in which a glitch at HAAARP unleashes ELF waves that destroy everything on earth except for vegetation, lambs, and anyone who thinks s/he is equal to God...starring Kevin Costner. Peace! Christ!

I found this quote out there on the web... "In religion and politics people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not themselves examined the questions at issue but have taken them at second-hand from other...

Apparently, Nash's mind was so powerful, that when it devoted itself to what makes no sense, it drove itself mad. Truly, religion and politics cannot be understood. Not even *Our Father* understands them. Why? Because they are literally not understandable. Likewise, the "tree of the...

Have you considered that you are not really getting the teachings of Jesus in the four pop gospels? Do you ever wonder why the source scholars call "Q" is not anymore extent...and not included in the popular versions? It's because "Q", like the gospel of Thomas, is about 180 degrees from the...

From what you want, GoD cannot save you. Christ!

I would like to draw attention to the arguments of Jim E.'s over HERE at TheologyWeb. Jim E. is an atheist who went an unbelievable 240 pages, virtually alone, against the dogs of dogma...keeping a level head...and a singularly powerful argument all the while. Here, the sanity of atheism is...

The word "iniquity" derives from the root *unequal*. Iniquity is an attempt to be either greater than, or less than GoD. It is not possible to even pretend to be greater than GoD. So the world is all about being less than GoD. Hence, "the world" is the *sacrifice* of what is equal, and must...
