    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Man creates aliens in our image, so why not god?

    As an agnostic, were I to describe god, it'd be more organic...nature, energy, openness to the intangible.

    Might need to have a listen to XTC's Dear God later on. APC's Judith too. Interesting perspectives from both.

    A bit of both. I don't quite know why his son looks like a Caucasian American when he clearly wouldn't have been.

    Jesus was a jew but rejected by jews(not all though)

    God created us in his image but you have to remember he is not fleshly at all but spirit so you can sort of picture him as a glowing human spirit light in form of man, whereas we are fleshly but in his image..

    My new writing project. Spent the weekend away from home, writing and eating good food. It went well and I'm pleased now.

    I simply don't get some people...their perspective and how it's given forth.

    On the upside, I know I don't have to. Don't need to.

    (but really...fuck me for wanting to and trying to make sense!)

    Yep, some people's walls that surround themselves are so high that they are not even worth trying to break down. They are so set in their ways that you're not going to change them no matter what you do. Sometimes they are control freaks. It's frustrating because you just want to help.

    I'm Still Here, f'n nice. Most of us can relate to that at some point in our lives. The good times are worth it maybe. The agony is only temporary.
    Or i can say..''cursed the day he let it go''...

    I know, right?? ( about all the pics of Jesus). I was just doing a study, and through out the study it was pointed out several times that Jesus was very plain. He looked just like everyone else. He wasn't overly attractive, and wasn't ugly. It said there were no distinguishing features to Him other than the words He spoke. I found a lot of comfort in that. But seriously, yeah, why do they portray him as Caucasian?? Dude is Jewish! And Israeli Jewish at that! Lol

    As for the image, I believe when the Bible says we were created in the Image of God, it is speaking in a spiritual sense. I don't believe God has a formal body as we do. The only wayGod could pull off omniscient presence is if He is formless; a spirit. Therefore our spirit is what was created in the image of God; housed in this temporary body here on earth. Did that make ANY sense?

    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Indeed it does. Not to get all churchy, but it makes sense that a plain form was given because people would be more open to someone that they didn't perceive as being any better than they are.
