Theos-Talk Archives (August 2004 Message tt00044)

Aren´t the religions in general a factory, a plant for producing personalimages of God and then promulgating to the people who´ll become its followers?
With a few exceptions such as the true buddhism, all the attempts of Man tounderstand the great mistery of creation and existence of God fall inevitably in the construction of a limited, distorted, God.

Hi all,

Space is in a sense the only deity... Space is one of the three major
principles in the proem to the Secret Doctrine. And if there is going
to be only One God as Christians, Muslims and some Jews insist, it is
going to be Space.
