The Story of Creation

My analysis of the story of creation is based on the assumption that the story is actually literal. However, what we know and understand about reality and what is literal is much different than what is revealed in the biblical story of creation. There are many points in the story that make it obviously metaphorical. If the story of creation is literal then… Continue reading

The Great Plan Part 1

They start with the assumption that God didn’t know what He was doing when He created man and man was a perfect, sinless creature who “fell from grace” and was cursed.

He said that his Father gave him all power and authority over all things. He said he came from his Father and would return to His Father.

Alright, now don’t they take this thing a little too far if they mean that Jesus is really God, but now he’s sitting at the right hand of his Father? Now if Jesus is really God, and he’s sitting at the right hand of… God? That’s really strange. He’s sitting at the right hand of… himself? Christianity pushes this concept on it’s believers and since it is a doctrine that is so hard to swallow, they teach that it’s a “mystery”. I can’t see how such a simple, literal, logical thing can be a mystery. Actually that’s the excuse that they put on their strange doctrine of the “Trinity” since it is so hard for people to understand — and with good reason! It’s not true! Continue reading
