HEAVEN AND HELL AREN'T WHAT THEY TELL YOU IT IS!!!

Like Dante Alighieri, they have taken some certain verses in the Bible and elaborated on them so much that the original authors wouldn't recognize the concepts. Before the New Testament, Heaven was just God's throne and hell was, well -- it was simply "Sheol", or the grave. As far as the Old... Sign in to see full entry.

EVOLUTION

In order to be friends with bloggers, I wish I could believe Evolution weren't true. But all the evidence I have points to it being true. I've mentioned, particularly here, how human behavior is a fine example of the evolutionary process, comparing it to the behavior of other primates. mainly we are... Sign in to see full entry.

Moslems have a lot to teach us.

What Christians fail to do and Christianity really fails to teach. So I'm doing my radio show yesterday and I have a young Afghani and a young Somali on the program with me and we discuss holy days and periods. Ramadan just ended and now begins the five (?) days of feasting to celebrate the end of... Sign in to see full entry.

HOW DID PEOPLE COME TO HAVE A GOD? (Part 6-priesthood)

the latest national geographic profiles a Columbian Indian group. Priests are important to them. People with a contact with something that common people cannot ascertain. shamans -- those who have had visions in a summer firelight -- those who prophesy -- those who heal -- those who see and then...

HOW DID PEOPLE COME TO HAVE A GOD? (Part 5)

Gods became tribal entities -- and national. Egypt developed its pantheon of gods and goddesses -- probably out of various and separate local triable gods. Probably the great city-states -- Babylonia, Assyria, Greece, Rome -- their pantheons developed out of the tribal gods and goddesses. A deity... Sign in to see full entry.

RE: REFUTABLE EVIDENCE OF GOD'S CREATING THE UNIVERSE

UNICORN DELETED MY RESPONSE TO HER POST But Kooka did a pretty good job in his post of responding. But I will add a few things here. First, there is no evidence at all that the Earth is the center of the Universe -- it only from our perspective. Any human's perspective is that he/she is at the... Sign in to see full entry.

How people came to have a god (part 4)

Genesis and the tale of the Garden Eden and the Tower of Babel tell us that humans progressed from a hunter-gatherer society through agrarian to society centered around urban settings -- the first city-states. religion also developed in pretty much of a mirror image. hunter-gatherers' gods were the...

HOW DID PEOPLE COME TO HAVE A GOD? (PART 3)

Imagine, if you will, thousands of religious experiences, thousands of explanations of who we are, what we are, where we are, when something might happen, why we are here and where we are going. I know it's easy, in a sense, because you just have to look around you to see that. But in the dawning of... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

PREMISE: Most of contemporary Christianity is founded on medieval mythology. The view we receive is from human perception that has constructed a religion much different from the original, derived from human opinions and definition of religion. The earliest construct of what we call Christianity begins centuries after the original event.
