“An external creator and his institutions may still be verbally confessed at Church in formulas that linger by their mere inertia, but the life is out of them, we avoid dwelling on them, the sincere heart of us is elsewhere” .Those who know “that we inhabit an invisible spiritual environment from which help comes, our souls being mysteriously one with a larger soul whose instruments we are, may have it right that it is all about saving experiences and intimacy with God, versus the theistic view of humans being outsiders and mere subjects to God. Mostly from William James.
Does this meet your experience Allan? Not that I'm trying to salvage you - we both have only residual scrap value less what it costs to carry us away these days. It is more or less my feeling, discovered before I read about such. I wonder a lot about this, though not in words. There is a touch of salvation in kindness, possibly the thought we might be in the future, not achievable now. I think we are here from somewhere else, frontierspeople of some kind. We need to send home for our things, so to speak. -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""Minds Eye"" group.
