G*d, Words, and Thoughts

Zelda and I had a nice talk last night.

A nice talk about
G*d, Christianity,
Words,
and Thoughts.

I believe that religion was created by Man,
as an attempt to understand the
Unknowable,
Uncomprehensible,
G*d.

This term used by
Very Small Beings,
also collectively known as
Man.
*This Being a non gender specific term.*

As I understand the Old Testament.
We Christians have adopted,
stolen if you will,
a Jewish document.

I say
Stolen,
because we long ago forgot
that we too,
being followers of 'the Christ',
are a child of Jews.

My question to myself, as I began this study of Christianity,
was

"What does it mean to be "Christian"?
I settled on "To be Christ like".
"Christ" being a title, not a name.

So how can I be like
a Christ?

I believe there actually was a man
named Joshua, (Hebrew name translated into the Greek as "Jesus". Sort of like
"Bill" and "William", or "Richard" and "Dick" being interchangable.)
And I actually believe he sought for an intimate relationship with the Unknowable.
But I also believe the Synoptic Gospells (Mathew, Mark and Luke), and not so much on the book of 'John', that he did not claim to be G*d, but 'of G*d'.
As we all are.
Of G*d.

The traditional Hindu greeting is with hands together as in prayer.
This in recognition of the Divine in each of us.

It is for us to Recognize,
Remember,
that we are Created in the Image of the Divine,
and thus,
all,
Divine.
**********
In honor of the Word,
Zelda and I then played
Yahoo's on line version of
Scrabble.
*********
In playing around the net.
I stumbled upon the latest
Yahoo messenger.

It has a little toy that lets you,
with a microphone enabled
computer,
talk to anyone on the planet with an
internet connection and speakers.

Woo Hoo!!!
