    It seems the following is a "conventional" view. Any comments? 1. "Faith" layer can be: 1A - Faith, or 1B - No Faith. 2A. "God" layer of Faith can be: 2Aa - God, or 2Ab - No God. 2B. "God" layer of No Faith can only be: 2B - No God. 3A. "Religion" layer of "Faith and God" can only...

    Please Don't lose Faith in the Human Spirit! Other than the potential development of Interfaith churches, there are many NGOs that we could still have and keep our Faith in them - for the noble aim of the Human Spirit...

    10. Alternatively, the wrapped body sent/placed inside the tomb on the first day was actually a living young man, the same young man who was found by them and appeared alive inside the tomb when the rock door was open/removed. A typical scene like many modern day by illusionists. 11. If...

    Q https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesuism University of Melbourne professor Lindsay Falvey noted in 2009 that "the gospel story so differs from Church doctrine that it could well be of a different religion – Jesusism".[17] Jesusism became the subject of increased academic discussion following its...

    " 8. Was any "Magi" men invited to visit the burial place and to provide any wise advice for the burial process immediately after (or before) Jesus' death? If yes, could these "Magi" men help/do anything related to the disappearance of Jesus' body? As well as the way, the timing and the...

    7. Now Christmas time! There were a few "Magi" men from the east coming to visit Jesus' birth place. These are also described as wise-men who were eastern astrologers, "but not to be construed as of the same spirit as modern astrology". What kind of profession does a "Magi" actually do in the...

    Last (2 cents) but not least: Homeless has been mentioned several times here in this thread. Asylum seekers are homeless people basically - not even a country to stay! Jesus was once a homeless, staying 40 days/nights in the desert, alone without food! He once said he didn't even have a...

    Seriously, religions did have great contributions in the past. Many great men with great courage and inspirations were also religious persons! The current trend I think would likely be modernisation and secularisation of world religions. Perhaps interfaith...

    Current thinking - teach all religions. I say abolish it all

    The most illogical thing is: The large stone rolled/placed at the front/door of the burial tomb was Not sealed on the first day of burial. All people, including if any soldiers, were gone home, except only the women sitting opposite the tomb, watching. Most importantly, only after the second...

    The one permitted to remove Jesus' body was a Council member, and the crowd of women chasing and observing the whole burial process were most likely not believers of Jesus, without any problem or worries when checked/asked whether they were believers or not by soldiers. Jesus' followers of the...

    Ideally, home group should be the natural form of structure that could be also used during Jesus' time, I would imagine. The place of meeting could be rotated in order not only to bring/provide needed warm food/ clothes and housewares, plus certain needed physical and spiritual supports, to...

    Current thinking - teach all religions. I say abolish it all

    My idea is the definition of God should better integrate all aspects of religion, philosophy and science. I understand many people have been working on this obvious direction. I am also currently reading/studying some books on this interesting topic. Happy Holiday Season!
