Perhaps angels hovering in the air ain't what was thought, let alone miracles such as walking on water eh? GRIN! You are right however, some people will believe anything their eyes see, and proclaim they won't believe until they see. But what they see may not be what they think. It is all very...

I have been testing and am truly becoming more convinced and actually quite stunned into something I believe I have discovered. No, in all serious liklihood it is not new, at least not new to the Kabbalah rabbis, but something has opened up in me that is a possibility I have never before...

I would like to point out that Cino's post is also a little bit more part of reality......GRIN!

so much to learn, so little time....GRIN!

Just testing, sorry. Oh hot dang baby! I can adjust picture sizes now also! Woo hoo! This has nothing to do with the thread, I just have been finding ways to put better pictures here because I am doing some sacred geometry and it HAS to be shown. NOW I know I can do so......great day in the...

I was just told by a physicist that I am misunderstanding a lot. Sigh... I am so dumb sometimes. LOL.... In physics energy is not a substance but a property. You have energy in the way you have height, not in the way you have blood. So nothing can be made out of energy, any more than something...

Well, as I learn more from the quantum physics angle I am less inclined to think everything is material without question. I know right now science is finally starting to at least look at consciousness, though Daniel Dennett really does not like the idea. We know matter is certainly more refined...

Joseph Smith and Rosicrucianism: The Idea of “Spirit”: Contrasting Esoterica Compared Though the modern Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has dumbed down, if not downright ignored discussing or analyzing, let alone attempting to explain the mysteries, it also doesn't bother anymore...

Hate to break it to you, but a newspaper is not in the classification of "hard scientific facts." I honestly don't know what else to say at this point.

I think I understand where you are coming from my friend. And yet, we can honestly say your wise words of any established religion on the planet could we not? All exoteric religions (churches), -isms, have creeds, that is, statements of doctrines or ideas they want all their group to follow. I...

Oh just dang dude!!! That IS a koan moment isn't it? I have never seen it that way nor been told that. How fascinating.... thank you so much for sharing this with me, talk about a light bulb moment! I love it!!! Those darn scriptures, just keep on givin us light eh? Oh just how delightful! I'm...

In other words, a typical message board! GRIN! No wonder I feel right at home... by the way, I just finished reading the first volume of the Zohar. Mighty fascinating! Now onto vol. 2......gonna try for all 12 of them in two years.... that's gotta be a heap much amount of spirituality coming my...

I know this discussion was years ago, but I have trouble accepting this. I have read koans, and parables are not anything like koans.

Not trying to be difficult, but I view this as a discussion. Debates accomplish nothing and never help. I have been in debates, and this ain't one. This is nowhere near an actual debate, and I am very glad of it actually. A discussion is just so much more helpful, useful, and enjoyable. There...

I think my reservation is that Jesus would do better by coming back as himself as he was in his day, not with a different name. That leaves too much open to abuse and deceit. Does that make sense? I honestly just don't think I would ever find this convincing in any manner of the claim. Jesus...

Um, it may not be a fact, but an interpretation. I am not sure I have ever been 100% sure of anything, especially as time goes on. Very precious little in a finite existence is ever 100% sure. I'm just sayin......

Well, then, what ever for is it doing in scripture as scripture?! If we took that tack with all scripture where would it leave us? GRIN!

Well, if the Book of Revelation is accepted then the New Jerusalem is talked about. John Michell in his book "The New Jerusalem" discusses the sacred geometry of it all in extensive detail. I rather enjoyed that book.

Because of a direct connection and His word to you personally. If you don't have that you ain't got nuthin.....GRIN!

Only because then it appears it needs to make opposition out of all things instead of assimilation into all things. Organized religion usually has no choice but to make it an us/vs them, as Richard Rohr has shown. The only difference we have to overcome is between God and us, not an us and them...
