Actually, here Thomas is wrong. And so are you (!) imho. The Apocrypal texts, such as those found at Nag Hammadi, were not hidden by God; they were hidden by men, and possibly women, because the Church, in its attempt to codify and neaten the doctrines of Christianity destroyed and disputed a...

Instead of supporting your belief, I'm gonna pour on some cold water. It is... noble of you to attempt to address your anxiety issue, but I feel you have chosen the wrong shade of "self-help" here. I am concerned that by believing in this past life situation you will give your anxiety more...

good day to you both, newbies.

I wasn't knocking you, Ben -- it's compelling reading. But, to answer your response, here... You are assuming that Jesus wasn't actually celibate. Gnostics, Essenes, Cathars -- all of their doctrines align celibacy with religious purity based on the whole body/spirit duality -- the pleasures...

In all my years on interfaith, I never came in here... hahaha. I've properly missed out. Kudos to Phyllis. I read the early stuff, and the late stuff, but I missed out a bit in the middle -- too much for me to read, man! But hey... I like playing. So am entering the fray...

actually, yes, Persona -- we do have to try to believe it's possible. I forget that. Thank you for reminding me. I'm gonna borrow Brother Michaels' "half full glass".... you don't mind, I hope.

I can't add anything to that. Except -- hahahaaa. ha.

My "favourite pastime, turning my sordid past into punching dolls" --Does this even make sense, lad? Maybe it does, to you. You are, after all, a Theosophist, and lots of nonsensical stuff seems relevant to you. For the record, my past isn't sordid, and shucks, even if it was, what...

Tajasi/andrew X... whoever you are. I wondered how long it would be since the Leadbetter feud before you revealed your secret self... Regardless... ...for your information, I've never had any run-ins with Jesuits. I might, in the future, of course, but not yet. I'm sorry if that screws up...

wtf? AID's the salary of homosexuality? Nice! By that rationale, only queers would ever get AID's, but that's not the case. Women, heterosexual women, usually poor and without access to free Johnny's, these are the biggest risk-group for AID's, right now. Not gays. AID's does not...

yes, it's a bloody good yarn. Maybe you could pretend this story was channelled to you, via secret masters? You'd make a killing on the Guru-circuit! Book tours, a neat little lecture tour... the possibilities are endless. On a more serious note... why would it matter if Jesus was married ...

skoal! Back of the net? Has Engerland scored? Yerrsss!!!!!!!

andew X says he ignores me, so he will pretend not see this, but I am writing it for the benefit of Thomas, predominately. I'd like to say... thanks, man. I thought I was the only one who could see through it, but obviously, I'm not. Halle-bloody-lujah.

finely put... salutations!

personally, I find that having no hair makes me more powerful, in a psychic sense. I shave my head pretty regularly. Hair is a distraction, something to hide behind. As a woman, having no hair is socially unacceptable -- people assume you're a rabid feminist, deisel dyke or cancer sufferer...

Brother Michael Sky... you suggest I should not be offended that you claim you are "... reading [your] own thoughts, from [your] past - through [me]..". You also said... "It is always either amusing or embarrassing to view ourselves in hindsight. My pride still gives me terrible...

Sarcasm is usually cleverer that that, but top marks for effort, Michael

Hahaha. Yes, I noticed that, too. Where do the people who don't believe the bunkum go?

BMS, developmental psychology has plenty of "stage theories"... and most of them are pretty useful. Why should religious or spiritual development be any different? It's a process, like any other. You're laughing at my casual attempts to define such, but I too, can laugh, at you, and...
