intense really, It’s interesting to take a look at different perspective of religion and theory like this. by that i mean the whole jesus box thing.
I guess for me it’s very universal, I don’t really beleive in a christian god, or krishna or loki or anything as a divine entity that controlls my destiny as i expierince it, thats just who i am.
but alternitivly I respect, admire and beleive in Jesus Christ.
I beleive he was THE messiah, and he saved millions and millions of lives.
in that the world’s morals and ideals are wholy, if not loosely based on christian principles, and had christ not existed, and a record not been kept, christianity most likely would have fallen.
it’s funny how jesus plays into MY life growing up i was raised catholic, went through the whole confession, communion thing, went to mass, even went to a private school that forced us to go to mass on fridays. which only served to assist in my disrespect for authority and such.
not saying i don’t respect authority, just that if someone tells me to do something, and they don’t give me a reason why if i ask for it. they will in fact get an earfull, unless they have my trust. which of course is most likely the detrimental factor in me losing faith in catholisism in general, i couldn’t have any questions i wanted answered so i had no trust in what was being said.
anyway tangent.
jesus, to me is someone everyone shoudl aspire to be.
someone who gives up literally LIFE to help because he truly beleives he can, whether or not it is true is up to your favourite theological debate.
but saying that you culd give up your life to save the entire human race for all of eternity is not something many people, if any nowadays can say.
and with that, i am inspired.
thanks brett that was nice and insightfull.
