    I suspect so, truly.

    Arian Christology

    All the wrangling and bother... sigh... and so much time was lost and is lost continuing the wrangling that still is utterly irrelevant to spirituality, at least so far as I can see. But then again, it is the way of orthodox organized religion eh? GRIN! They gotta have some reason to exist, I...

    Why are we religious, if there is nothing there?

    Lol! Yes indeed eh? The one sure thing is here I am, and I actually know it.....at least for now... so, this kinda opens up a can o worms doesn't it..... is subjectivity the actual only real we ought to worry about and think on? I can't convince anyone that I actually think, but I really do...

    Arian Christology

    OK, this to me is a great base to begin with. God, after all, can only be One, since in the problem of the One and the Many, everything else being the Many presupposes that there has to be a One, or Many cannot exist on a logical basis. Hope I am not muddying the water here. Not tryin to I promise.

    So God, You Wanna Come Out and Play?

    How interesting! On the other hand, going through all the many times trying to figure it out may very well be God already playing! GRIN! You have some interesting ideas, thanks for sharing them. Yeah the idea of only this universe vs many of them is intriguing as all get out I must admit. In the...

    The Abrahamic Get-Out-Of-Jail-Free Card?

    It's also possible that all sides are correct, but they are ignoring God and His Will also. In that case it would appear God lets them have their free will and hell they make for themselves. They have the answer, theyu just don't like doing what it takes to have peace.

    Oral Torah, Sacred Tradition, Ahadith

    Tone Bristow-Stagg I see that all the Messengers suffer to show us the Love of One God. SS I don't need to see anyone suffer to see the love of the One God for us. I see this world, this magnificent universe. Suffering has nothing to do with seeing God's love, at least not so far as I can...

    Oral Torah, Sacred Tradition, Ahadith

    Right? Yeah this was the same Martin Harris who actually talked with Jesus Christ in the form of a deer (none other) for over 2 miles on the way home one day... yeah, one of the 3 witnesses to the Book of Mormon. That's the guy.

    Oral Torah, Sacred Tradition, Ahadith

    Yeah, that could be. But just as a heads up, Joseph Smith saw Isaiah 29 prophesying of him, Martin Harris, and the Book of Mormon as a sealed book. Martin Harris was the unlearned man who asked the learned to read the script, and the scholar he visited was said to have said "I cannot read a...

    No. I was not aware of that. I seriously doubt it however.

    Oral Torah, Sacred Tradition, Ahadith

    Well, even Jesus said only the Father knew of the coming time of the end and when it would happen. There were things even Jesus didn't know that the Father did.

    That is a nice encouraging view without question. Thanks.

    Jesus vs the Church

    Yeah, that's one view all right. I rather have become fond of how Alan Watts has handled it. I can't say I agree with everything he ever said, well heck man, I can't do that with anyone actually - Lol! But it's all fascinating to explore! No one actually knows this side of the veil, so it's...

    Jesus vs the Church

    That is exactly what death is, a change of scenery of life from here to somewhere else. Death is the low part, the trough, of the sine wave, while life is the crest. We need and have both in order for the wave to function. One cannot have a half of a sine wave. That makes no sense.

    Death can, after all, be seen as just a change of scenery.....

    Zen enriches no one

    Ha! Man is it no wonder Zen is so fascinating?! I hadn't heard this one before... One that struck me once, went something like this. A guru was asked what is the actual meaning of Zen? I don't want a stupid answer, just keep it succinct and get to the bottom of it, just what does Zen mean...

    Are humans predisposed to believe in magic?

    Is this a case of rational vs irrational, or can we see it as the actual category of rational vs suprarational? It may not be the Aristotelian logic of either /or we need to be using, but a different and more comprehensive logical basis that includes yet a third category....perhaps?

    Are humans predisposed to believe in magic?

    Yes, that was the woodenly literalist thinking so stupid in the society. Alchemy has never been about turning actual lead into actual gold, it was all "soul" work. The philosopher's Stone is the soul of the alchemist himself. The great Opus, the "Work" was for the alchemist to purify his own...
