    An idea? Anyone up for this?

    I'm in. I am in a unique perspective to give an ex-JW perspective (as compared to my current perspective). And Mee, I'm not disfellowshipped nor dissassociated if that eases your conscience at all. ;) Oh and Crosswalk has over a dozen different bible translations available (free) online.

    As a n00b, and an outsider looking in, I'd have to agree with you.

    Renamed to Alternative

    Actually, I was thinking about this a bit more after I posted, and the term 'New Age' popped to mind as well. Esotericism includes mysticism, Sufi, Kabbalah, theosophy, anthroposophy, sophia perennis, neo-platonism, gnosticism, et al. I have never thought of esotericism as being crystals...

    religious fiction poll

    The movies definitely left a lot out. They were true to the books, overall, but condensed. Read the books. I think you'll like them.

    Renamed to Alternative

    Um, I have always been thrown by the "Esoteric" section. It seems to me that crystals et al, should be in magick. It just seems an unnecessary seperation and that the two sections could be combined. My .02$

    Self Power - Other Power - Grace

    Hi earl. I remember you from TCPC and the now defunct Christian Mystics forum. Good to talk to you again. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to find out that Kierkegaard was quoting Eckhart. I think Merton said something similar as well - about letting the light of God shine through, about becoming...

    Self Power - Other Power - Grace

    Hi Tariki. Wonderful thoughts. What popped into my mind as I read your words above were the words of Soren Kierkegaard - "Let God be God in you." Those words have almost become a mantra for me of late. I had an experience lately, that I'm a bit loathe to go into here, where the attitude of...

    Jesus - Elvis Presley: A tenuous link?

    I was still pretty young when Elvis died, but I do have memories of how awful he looked before his death. I remember thinking that he was hurting his status and reputation by continuing to appear and perform. He didn't die during his prime. He died long after it. :o There are many Christians...

    Which religion do you follow?

    I had a feeling someone would ask. ;) In a nutshell, it basically says that at a transcendent level, there is a universal set of truths common to all people and cultures. Wikipedia actually gives a decent definition here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perennial_Philosophy & here...

    Which religion do you follow?

    I follow the Christian tradition. I'm a panentheist, a perennialist, and a pluralist, with esoteric and mystical interests. :D
