02 The greatest mystery all-time without a close competitor is the Psyche that forms the nucleus around which we revolve.

03 We all are the same, and we all are different. Why can’t we take that on faith, and live as though it is so? We take the craziest things on faith. “There is no such thing as global warming!” Why take that on faith? “COVID-19 is a hoax!” Why take that on faith? “IfContinue reading “October 20, 2020”
The Non-Subscribing Church of What’s Happening Now
Flip Wilson had a comedy routine built around “The Reverend Leroy and The Church of What’s Happening Now.” With “Non-Subscribing” attached to the name of his church, the new incarnation captures perfectly the essence, scope and calling of every church since the invention of churches–to exist beyond theology and doctrine, dogma and creed, catechisms andContinue reading “The Non-Subscribing Church of What’s Happening Now”

“The Christ” is “the anointed one.” Anointed to do what? “To proclaim the Gospel (The Good News) to every sentient being!” What is the Good News? “You are all The Anointed One, anointed to do your thing for the true good of all!” We are all The Christ–The Anointed Ones! Anointed to do our thingContinue reading “10/10/2020”

The Stages of Spiritual Development The Old Yogis/Hindus/Buddhists held there to be seven stages of spiritual development. Stage 1 is Living Without Being Alive. Jesus advised leaving the dead to bury the dead. The people at this stage are dragons (Joseph Campbell), Dragging themselves around.

01 Jesus needed redemption as much as any of us. The theology that contradicts this was invented by the Church of the Holy Roman Empire to pave its way through the ages (With the Council of Nicaea in 325), and the way of all the spin-off churches who saw what a deal the Roman CatholicContinue reading “08/01/2020”
