		<description>Man, I&#039;m no Christian, but I really appreciate your take on it... I hope that one day you may also say (if you haven&#039;t already) we who aren&#039;t convinced by the evidence are also welcomed at your table... but I bet you&#039;re already there aren&#039;t you?

You&#039;re on of the Christians I will stand up for... you&#039;re on good path no matter... I wish you well.</description>

		<description>The natural world, the physical world, the &#039;real&#039; world has existed billions of years in the absence of language, but Christianity wouldn&#039;t last one second without it since it is completely founded on mostly anonymously-composed words in books. 

If you want to discover whether something is real or not, there&#039;s a very simple test. Can you experience it without relying on language? If you can, it&#039;s real. If you can&#039;t, it&#039;s a mental construct and abstraction. &quot;God&quot; is only a word, fully defined into existence (as are &#039;Heaven&#039;, &#039;Hell&#039;, &#039;Angels&#039;, &#039;Devils&#039;, &#039;The Soul&#039;, &#039;Life-After-Death&#039;, &#039;Eternal Life&#039;, &#039;Judgment Day&#039;, et al).

This is the reason there are 40,000 Christian sects/denominations/cults, because they keep going round and round the language, while the real world slowly passes them by.

Of course this is also true of everything else found in our artificial human culture. We&#039;ve become so indoctrinated to social inventions like religion, politics, ideology, and technology, we&#039;re entrapped in compartmentalized counterfeit realms that have nothing to do with flesh and blood and bone of reality.</description>

Krumple - Thanks for your thoughts.  I agree that there are large portions of the Bible where people have different interpretations of what the Bible is saying. To say that it is flawed, that is your opinion, one I believe to be incorrect.  To say that the writers had little understanding of how the world works? That is naive.  Many of the authors and subjects gave more for what they believe in than we even pretend to.  Such fundamental concepts as faith, hope, and love  are eternal and relevant no matter what you religious thoughts are, or what age you live in.

&quot;A being who would create such an existence is not worthy of being called or referred to as a god…&quot; or He is greater than your understanding.
