Still waiting for more submissions on the Quimby Project.

I will email you about yours...  for which, by the way, I thank you now, and will explain via email why I didn't thank you earlier.

See? They've fascinated me as well. Believe me, I have tons of similiar thoughts and questions, but I thought I'd start with this one. [ By the way . . . whatever happened to the "Quimby" project? ]

Re: Re: Heaven and Hell, like God as a great Patriarch in the Sky

Questions like these have fascinated me since kidhood--hence, my Universe blog, which was my first, actually, when I came to Blogit back in ... 05?  Has it been that long...?

Re: Heaven and Hell, like God as a great Patriarch in the Sky

Thanks. I think the human mind is far more complex than any of us could possibly imagine. That's why I wrote out my thought process the way I did. Someday it would be nice to know the absolute truth about "things." Until then, I'll keep my mind open.

Your welcome. Like I wrote, I know this may be a somewhat controversial topic for some, but it's interesting nonetheless. Thanks for responding.

Heaven and Hell, like God as a great Patriarch in the Sky

as they have been offered up by various Western religions, are accepted by some as literal truth, and by others as simple or complex metaphore to represent a greater Truth that is not so limited to time/space as we human sorts are. 

By my lights, your belief tracks Truth better than some.

out some thoughts, throw them out there to see what people think. Well done with this most interesting post. It is certainly a concept that gives a person something to think about. Thank you.
