Hi!
I am new to your 'Theos-Talk' Group...
not to human-life errors and contradictions though.
I would like to thank you for being the first eMail I have had come before
my eyes; as you clarified a problem within Theology which I know to be
humanity's downfall.
The Structure of Life Itself deems interACTIVE support in It's defense
necessary. Violence is not necessary; nevertheless it is human within all
beliefs. We have witnessed recently, the same, in Holiest of Places on this
planet. Being active is!
In brief, I not only agree with your statement, I am thankful for someone
who puts things (Reality) on the proverbial line of Truth. I have, since a
child, lived a somewhat Guided Lifestyle. Reason I know and understand
fully. I am not in Theos to follow decades and centuries of historical
'thinking' without 'doing'. I am here to confirm, for a human brain, that
which I already know to be. When Truth is Knowledge lived within; the
human-factor (as I call it) falls extremely short of a Solution for the
World's (Universes') problems which 'man' has created and maintains in
silent development.
Have a Great Day!
Here, where I am on this Planet, it is 7:48 AM and time for a much needed
2nd cup of coffee.
Take care!
Gregg

If you have not yet found that something, which at times, you know is
missing within you and your life... it is only because 'No One' is telling
you the truth about 'You'!
