Hi MrHumanSoul You wrote: I have come to many of the same conclutions You have? Yes! I'm NOT the only one! You: its true math has the inability to define infinity , or have the ability to explain the Whole Truth, always to be an aproximation.
this issue is part of a fundemental principle in science that the laws of science are not the observations, and that experiments are all ways
innacurate. And isn't that totally amazing? Man's bowed down for her golden calf all over again, and knows it too for crying out loud. Probably because man thinks there's no alternative. But there is. I think people like you and me should tell the world this. You: anyway, making a conclution that humans can only perseive "fuzzy "Truth... Actually, a logical system (because it is 'more accurate' than creation) can only represent Truth fuzzily. But humans certainly can know Truth; through love. Love doesn't demand an explanatory description such as math, science and philosophy offer, but a simple and unconditional surrender to the one you adore and possibly a cosy fire, red wine and some sweet whispers and snogliwoglies and those kinds of goings on.
We should enjoy God not through a religion but through a relation, not through anything carved out in marble, precious metals or ink, but THROUGH THE GROOVE, BABY! You: do you think that all your conclutions
reflect an attribute of the Truth(GOD)
to be of non-duelistic nature? Er, scuze me? If I understand your question correctly, I'd say yes, as in no; a non-dualistic nature. But hold on, wait a minute. This is getting way too complicated. The Oxford dictionary lists three kinds of dualism: 1) the theory that mind and matter exist as separate entities; This I doubt, and in fact disprove by Scriptures. Everything that has been made, has been made in the beginning; it just needed to be assembled. The way I understand the universe, life is the fullness of matter and mind is the fullness of life, and it all has to do with electromagnetism. (And though visible light is a mere crescent of the entire electromagnetic palette, scientifically less formal publications often synonymize light and electromagnetism, especially since its quantum--the smallest bit of it--is the photon, or literally, the light-particle. When Jesus says, 'I am the Light,' He is probably not kidding, and quantum electrodynamics should be
a required course at every seminary).
2) the doctrine that there are two conflicting powers, good and evil, in the universe; This one I strongly oppose. The devil is no counter part or counter pole to God. God is sovereign and the devil isn't. The Biblical reality model is a mono-polar one, with God as the central nucleus and all other stuff in 'orbit' around Him. The other, very famous model, is the Zoroastrian model, which indeed describes reality as being pulled by two somewhat equal forces, good and bad.
Obviously, I am more comfortable with the Biblical model. 3) the doctrine that Christ had two natures, human and divine This is a tricky one. Sure, Jesus is both human and divine, but the conclusion that this requires two natures (a human one and a divine one) goes against the whole idea. In Christ, humanity and divinity meet, like two lines crossing in a Cartesian system. It's one point, even though this one point sits on two lines. Likewise, Christ only has one nature, His nature; where the nature of God and the nature
of man coincide. You wrote: do you think supersymitry, unified field, the equalibrium in wave mechanics, convey an aspect of the Whole Truth. Hmm, another tricky one. Truth is One, and does not consist of parts (like facts or theories and stuff). All those beautiful theories (including Christian dogma) are like pictures from an anatomy book, which may help you understand someone to some degree, but will not familiarize you with the personhood that one. And in human interactions
its the personhood that counts, and that can not be divided. Imagine feeling the sudden urge to introduce your new girl friend to your parents, and you decide to show them a picture of your girl friend's smiling face. You could insist
that it is really her, and confide that you now have introduced your girl friend to your parents. But in fact, you haven't. You've shown them a piece of paper that doesn't laugh, sound, smell (!), speak or interacts like your girl friend does. But now the other way around. If your parents already KNOW your girl friend (as she works a register at the local supermarket) but your parents can't figure out which of the thirty-four check-out girls you are talking about so excitedly, it would surely help to show them the picture. Ah! So THAT's her! They'll say. Likewise science and God. If you got God, science will remind you of Him and explain things about Him. If
you don't have God, science will do nothing for you save entertain you a bit. You: Budhism and Toa seem to embody this thinking more so than dualistic nature
of Truth as percieved by mainstream christian doctrine. I'm not sure if mainstream christian doctrine endorses any kind of dualistic nature, except perhaps that of Christ, which is dubious in itself. But if you mean your average Bible-belt, pink-cloud, Jesus-loves-me, Frank E. Peretti kind of sub-christian yahoo, yes, unfortunately a lot of bi-polar nonsense has sadly crept into the crypts and vaults of our contemporary 'christian' culture. I visited a humongous christian bookstore in Tennessee last year and tried to find a common, unembellished NIV or NAS and a Hebrew dictionary, but there weren't any. In stead
the store displayed an amazing etalage of blessed base balls, flasks of genuine Jordan River water (complete with a smidge of genuine Jordan River mud), women's devotional bibles, men's fellowship Bibles, serendipity Bibles (I had to look that word up; it means: "A supposed talent for the making of happy and unexpected discoveries by accident or when looking for something else; such a discovery," and that while the Bible speaks of the purposeful guidance of the Holy Spirit, and Godly plans, and salvation not by merits of works and certainly not by one's careful observation or accident), bracelets, caps, towels, diaries, post cards, socks; all with WWJD stamped on it like something contagious (as if we should wonder what Jesus would do, while He would have taken a sharp right a hundred miles ago. We are in desperate trouble and ought to wonder What Is Jesus Doing to get us out of this), year-round Christmas stables (while Jesus was born in a house in Bethlehem; not in a stable), monstrous posters of Christ looking like an ancient Back Street Boy (while, according
to Isaiah He wasn't all that hot to look at; it's not in the appearance, after all--see the Second Commandment),
shelves full of books on How To Biblically Overcome Whatever, Stop Smoking With Jesus, How To Deal With Your Wife The Way Christ Would Have If He Ever Had Had One, Make Tons Of Money The Biblical Way, How The End Time Will Do You In Something Awful UNLESS You Buy This Book, Biblical Banter For Beginners, Race Through The Old Testament In A Year, Why Bill Gates Is The Antichrist, What We Are To Do About Marilyn Manson, What Jesus Really Meant To Say, porcelain simulacra of pathetic angles, holding lyre, obscure books, singing gold music tones that physically dangled over their silver aureolea, precious moments of all derisory sorts, fish for on your bumper, coffee mugs with fish, fish to droop from your neck, your wrist, brochettes,
crosses (the most horrible single image man has come up with do date) to adorn walls, ears, necks, buildings, pictures of eagles, pictures of donkeys, pictures of people praying, singing, dancing, holding hands, holding babies up
to gentle beams of mercy streaming in from above; all buldging and pounding in the zealous effort to turn my Father's House into a den of robbers. In addition to looking for a Bible and some sense, I began to look for a two-fold cord. Lucky for all of us, I couldn't detect one. It is, after all, not my place to judge these things. But I decided that if this is christianity, I am not christian. I do, however, firmly believe in Jesus Christ, and can only hope that the religion that bears His Name, may one day come to her senses. Jesus one day told the story of the man who gave a feast and invited his most beloved. But every darn one of them had something else to do and declined the pleasure.
And so he sent a team of scouts out into the country side, to retrieve the lame and blind who didn't actually or consciously knew him, but who were able to sincerely appreciate his hospitality. I have a dark and fearful feeling that the promise of old may escape contemporary christianity (as a cultural phenomenon) and that the Body of Christ stretches forth throughout all times, cultures and religions, to one day gather at a feast so unimaginably grand, that the attendants abruptly and completely forget who was lame and who was blind, and why exactly. What a God. Wonderer.
