Is there any difference among people who worship magic books? If you're going to assume that people who accept Truth without evidence aren't very bright, why the need to categorize them further depending on which magic book they get their Truth from? Unless you're just saying that the Truths in your magic book don't exactly jive with the Truths in their magic book, and so therefore they're stupid. Is that what you're saying?

For dov. The 144,000 christain Jews will be left behind to do the Lord's work only the Lord knows what that will be.

Greetings. I am Ishtar. I am an Akkadian, a Semitic goddess.
See? We're all different here. Except for you. You are all the same.

(*stunned*)
I was punished? Did I like it? (*stunned*) and, dov? You DO appear to be an insufferable depressive who hates groups of people indiscriminately, based upon their religious leanings or nationality. That makes you sound soooo familiar...Oh, yeah! Like a bigot!

Anyhow, I read a few lines of Zech and automatically relegated it to my mental "old Testament crazy high on a very bad acid trip" catagory. Say, wanna hear some of the Navajo Blessingway? Its much nicer late night reading. Repeat after me: In beauty may you walk. On abundent trails of pollen, may you walk. May it be beautiful before you, As it is beautiful behind you. As it used to be long ago, In beauty may you walk The Navajo believe they're going to take back the world someday, too (I think). There's lots of Navajo. They have two Navajo broadcasting stations in the 4 Corners Area. They have several newspapers. Take a deep breath and think "beauty" and call me in the morning. Oh, and think Bodisattva Vow. I think the Bodisattva's have a lot more power than some old Testament crank long dead and buried. There's Bodisattva's walking around right now. They just don't get the sensationalist press that nutso evangelicals do. Bodisattva's and Navajo's. There, there. |

It is a lovely poem and thak you.
No offence please. I can freely discus the God of Abraham, whom I believe in, but it is not an exclusive faith. Elements that surround me moment to moment through time, I have learnt describing and defining her subtracts from her and is disrespectful. I do not judge anybodies spirituality or their expression of it. |

Now having seen this new kinder gentler approach I have been moved to read this Zechariah, and notwithstanding all the other fire and brinstone crap in the Old Testament, it sure seems like they're indicating disease and not nuclear annihilation. At the time they would have no clue to this future technology, but flesh would often rot that way via various plagues, and the story of particularly horrorful plagues would travel.
Nuclear annihilation wouldn't reference the consuming of the flesh so much as the burning of it. If God intended to indicate nuclear here, he was a poor writer, apparently unable to select words for clarity. The OT sure does suck, but then, I thought BACs put more importance into the NT. The NT sure does deny a lot of the fire and brimstone crap with a newfound attitude of tolerance and kindness. |
