Does the same God hit you as a great unknown ... given what we know of this character ... a strange personality!

God doesn't act because like Captain Cook ... he was too far from homme ...

Such distances form Gods ... white splotches in the sky ... last resort ... be creative and artistic when painting the overhead ...

Creativity, Luce, echoes God's voice. We paint overhead because we're the ultimate Artist's image-bearers.

The irony's that Christianity claims a distant deity's opposite, the infinite God crossed the greatest distance imaginable and came near in Christ. The heavens, Luce, are evidence that God's imagination's bigger than mine.

If God is fair and loving, why are some people born into wealth, health, and opportunity while others are born into poverty, disability, or hardship?

Believe God works through hardships in ways we can't see at the time.

I don't pretend to know why God ordains different paths for different people.

What I do know's that His love's not measured by wealth. Health! SOCIAL STATUS!

The greatest gift He offers's Himself through Christ. That gift's available to both the rich and the poor. The strong and the weak!

For me, the answer's that God is still good, even when life isn't

Do such scientific observations indicate maybe an alter god? Diabolical concept for those hating concepts as too close to thoughtfulness ...

Then with all the politicians making thoughtless commentary ... and being the elect ... is that chaos or just more elite-like? Maybe we just shouldn't think about such distasteful topics and how to eventually escape the distaste ... thus the mind goes ... soul-drift?

Co operation was never a possibility ... thus God is beyond mortality!

Just look at how some emperors and kings draw on questionable believers to carry out the foul work to get pardons!

Makes me reflect on Gabriel, Johnathan, Michael and the unknown one as unified out there ... die Anna! A vast essence ...

Am humbled, Luce, by that none of us are the GOOD GUYS apart from grace. God's never trapped by human manipulation. What people intend for evil, He weaves into His larger story.

I find comfort in Christ, who reigns over every power, visible and invisible.

Chaos, intrigue and COMPROMIZED LOYALTY's under the providential hand of a King who can't be outmaneuvered. That, Luce, is both sobering and strangely hopeful

Then there was the corruption surrounding the term filioque ... which is nothing but a question of why that young spirit of the ephemeral? Then explain to me how so many take a firm position when we don 'ave a clue ... I admit it but alas consider those about to jump upon me ...

If sin is broken and left here ... where do the better enlightened portions drift off to ...

Expect POTUS to pardon! That's dicey ... bad parse?

The plot twist, Luce, is that none of the ENLIGHTENED PORTIONS were self-propelled to begin with.

You're imagining soul particles escaping the sin-gravity well. The Engineer does the lifting.

If salvation depends on the enlightened bits drifting upward, Luce, we're all in trouble. Good thing grace has better transportation

Well Jae tells us the truth and it is all bad ... so I guess it is time to cash it all in and die and leave it all to the fundamentalists!

What if that was the plan primarily ... seems reasonable as desire is the most potent ... I regress in relief!

Large chunks of doctrine arose from twisted interpretation of Hebrew texts and selective interpretation of Christian texts from documents approved by councils based on beliefs and philosophies at the time. All the letters were written by people, mostly men, with particular interpretations of their experiences. I wonder why we had about 1950 years of conflict over interpretations of experiences and documents.

Is it best that people don't have a clue of what I speak of if they look only for good news for their private concerns?


Thus the motive nature of Personality Disorders as soul things that come out in the night or other dark periods to give vent to illusive powers like conscience ... the range of things like PTSD, ADHD, etc. build into a high ridge or dyke like Himalaya. On one side or the other a vale that has opposing characteristics as defined by that gentleman Sam Clements Jr. that discovered the east-west divide as a rapturous location ...

It is said that there are winds there that are home bound and other of wayward nature ... but not to be discussed openly because of intimate implications of the Dan Sir ... he feeding the fires to keep up the WU Li dancers going ... backlights to serious going'son ... about midnight ... that ineffable carrier!

The great horse theory ... where hidalgo got entangled and created concerns for certainty domains ... sure tobe folly!

There's something wonderfully human about that, Luce, and something foolish about it too. We want certainty. God often gives us dependence instead.

The issue's whether people are willing to venture beyond private concerns and listen for truths bigger than themselves.

The gospel's good news because it interrupts our favourite certainties and calls us into a reality we could never have constructed on our own

We want certainty ... as long as it costs us nothing ... especially those better positioned and then those lie to the relatively uninformed.

Can you see why those up there like to control the intellectual factor at their free will? One must have lots of free will enough to overwhelm the intellect ... it is just the way it is at this level of the sphere!

In ages past there was always a god that led to wars of aggression and waste of survival materials to the point of corrupting the surroundings and ruining civilization and society. There is evidence of this in the layers of earth ... fallout. Yet those with motivation to reduce the other will claim different and thus schism ...

This sort of thought can cause all kinds of disturbance in the human sphere ... even boiling in the wee kettle ... as it hangs in space. A story?

It appears that a myth is the only thing that can get through to the human intelligence that we're told is non existent because the gods destroyed such comprehension in some apocalyptic event that they cannot reverse ... a greater power of thought is required and that is out there ... in your dreams some say! Some mysterious characters supported dreams ... they are written of in myth and other literary devices that folk certainly grasp as poorly understood representations of something other than what appears! Thus we are doomed by our own mental deficiencies ... too much emotion that believe intellect is evil ... and so it goes again ...

Literary device ... something to revisit to see if there's something buried there ... mist during and emotional event ... like Moses in the peak or Adam in the garden ... being groomed ... that's like mentally cultivated because it happens when you're out of it (mind that is).

As they say: "never you mind now!" So we don't ... with barely a thought!

When you consider what the collective emotions have done it is scary so some of us search for intelligence ... just enough heart to keep ongoing ... functions ... until something conclusive occurs ...

Thus we stretch out for hope ... it has to be out there somewhere ... thus stars ... distant glimmers in mysterious realms ...

The stuff we don't know is like powerful leaders magnanimous in the take ... self destructive and don't know it ... depressing isn't it ... unless you don't think of such things. Some folk do in fits of PTSD, and other personality dissonance ... like a storm in the Eire of psyche ... dat's oule man ...

In the meantime we push on with the emotions ... some to great excess ... bringing down the aule thing ... spacey?

Just hold to the idea as an idiom that nothing serious can be spoken of in a down to earth place without a good mythology ... a story for working it into a difficult spot ... grounded belief? Hard bread from a jar ... potters required for pottering about ... with the characters of clay tora (bull by another name)!

Cla-yo' Patras ... what fell from the great pere wasn't what we were led to believe but a great mutter in under cover ... restricted (reserved in relief) psyche?

Very complex to say least ... semi odes ... se man tae-X? In disjointed form ... put it together! 4's Kin related by nature as FOUR Points of Compass:

• Freedom of Belief
• Freedom of Speach
• Freedom of Press
• Freedom of Movement (and thus intelligence goes)
• Absent Portion ... folly (small detail)

As the great Campbell declared the power of myth cannot be overseen, overlooked, etc. Avarice just will not do what's required of you ...

Abstract this matter? One would have to be out of it ... but it happens with little understanding attached.

Myth, Luce, is at its best when it points beyond itself to something real. Meaning detached from truth becomes confusion's other form. We can spend our lives assembling symbols and abstractions while missing the solid ground beneath our feet.

Your four freedoms's interesting because freedoms are not self-sustaining.

Grasping begins when we humbly recognize that we're clay creatures, dependent on the Potter's hands. In that light, even our confusion becomes wisdom's beginning

I have many questions and yet so many people feel they have all the answers and thus the discussion ends ...

Is this the anxiety about escaping life? Don't say it ... it could be an entity ... another word to investigate before the thing catches up with me and takes me back into the alternate of where we are now ...

Some believe we are in reality and some like me question where those people really are ...

I do believe it is time to go given the pious belief in temporal matters here ... like the truth of leaders! People do really suck things up ... without question. Have you noticed if you question ... people will tend to lead you on ... usually to the market place! Always some thing to sell ... if not of the three material items ... they wish to peddle emotions ... and they can be bounced and reciprocated in short order as you are led out on the mysterious sea that has no end.

It seems one has to observe this from the other shore to get it ... that all is incarnate ... and you can look up what that word means in numerous translations ... pseudo metaphors? In short nothing lasts ... it is hard to grasp and thus it goes on and on with all the mortal souls as they don't last as real either. Pious preachers tell me there is nothing to the psyche or the pool where thoughts are preserved ...

So there it isn't whether we like it or not ... thoughts are out there in the great beyond ... and you cannot connect ... those stoned on some powers can't get it either ... there's belief, royalty and business ... and yet no fair trade ... explain that? It is inexplicable ... except maybe because of isolation of the autonomous parts ... they are like antinomian! No name as they cannot be identified from this side of the absolute ... thus we move on into the abstract that is something else! Chaos ... yes cataracts as the aye fogs in the mist ... neigh aga Ra? Some leave the falls behind and rise ... i.e. fall for nothing ... there you find no bottom line ... even the negative is infinite to maintain balance ... particles change position from hard to lead particles ... abstract like bosons ...

Me I'm 10 years over the line according to some literature and thus sometime into that alternate time that's abstract and the best place for intelligence that is hard to accept in reality ... folk hate reality ... that's life! You only get so much and you feel ill ... when looking at what folk vote for without a thought but pure emotion and ambition and then can't undo anything ...

Imagine god and nothing residing out there beyond something ... would that be a stretch if mortals can't get above the dirt? It does entertain those materially entwined ... rather like stage, theatre and satyr ...

I try and be myself and that is alien to those in the production ...
