"Vigil: In love with their soldier son, he's yearning to go back to Afgh soon, prosthetic leg, learning to use it, his only delay. His leg was blown off last week." SL
"Give me a military man to work with any day. Don't give me any cowards." Gandhi
"I'm here to share what Truth I've been given, and NEVER to justify. My Justifying is for Our Father (conscience, humanity, compassion, integrity...), alone." SL
"I finally figured that if I needed external stimulation of any sort, I was living suboptimally. I was correct. The Joy from LovING the neediest is superior to ALL other, possible, human experiences." SL
"Wrapping OT, NT Hate around Jesus: The Final Crucifixion." SL
The Double Bind is the most toxic, deadly experience for the human nervous system - "I Love you," the Priest says as he rapes the 8 year old boy." THIS IS THE ULTIMATE SIN - "SPEAKING AGAINST THE HOLY SPIRIT (conscience, truth, sense of humanity). It Crushes the Divine within us an leaves no way back.
Wrapping the Love of Jesus in the Hatefulness of the Old and New Testaments is THE ULTIMATE DOUBLE BIND, THE ULTIMATE CRUCIFIXION.
------------------ Note to a dear fellow Traveler, a missionary for Jehovah's Witnesses:
Brother, this note may end our relationship. Our Father's will be done.
Every day now is teaching me to HATE the Bible. As long as you've known me, and for decades prior, I've resisted this lesson. But no longer. I detest the Book used to justify the Crusades of centuries ago, the Crusades of today with so-called Christians - Satan's minions actually - brutally establishing their will on our Arab / Muslim / Palestinian brothers and sisters... the Book used to justify Slavery, Apartheid, subjugation of women / male superiority, pedophilia, mindlessness instead of Holy Spirit ....
But, but, but... what about the Good Christians - the Good product of the Bible??!???!???!?! Too far and few between. They are the EXCEPTION, and the exception proves the Rule.
One of these days I'll buy a Bible and make it what Jesus attempted to make it, by ripping out and burning every page except those containing His words. Every page, Old and New Testament.
When I meet, and am Examined by Our Father, and Jesus, they will grill me harshly on why I resisted this lesson for so many decades.
