Jan,
Do you really expect everyone who sees through the falacies of the WTS to take your extremely cynical viewpoint of all religion and spirituality.
I see EXACTLY where you are coming from. I know that no religion is infallible in
practice, nor are any writings even partially explained.
It must look to you as if all religion is the same as that of us Jdubs, a fallacy unneeded by man and man would be better off. Spirituality is not material, not earthly and not
accomplished nor even explained well by those trying to do good. I think a lot about that and read 1 Corinthians 15, Romans 8, Hebrews 1 and a host of other scriptures when I feel the need.
Yet certain things ring true and we feel (yes
emotion not logic) a presence of some spirit that affects man in a positive way. Maybe old Zarathushtra had it right, a god of good and a god of evil, locked in mortal struggle for the souls of humanity, if so, praise be to Ahura
Mazdha!
Tyr
Enlil
Ra
Yahweh
An
...
I have a question, who do you picture as the two beings in Genesis, "making man in our image"? I once saw a remark from you about a consort to Yahweh, is it the Mesopotamian
dieties?
Later.
