No Matter What

After figuring it all out to my own satisfaction my conclusion is I do not care what argument is presented. I am confident the Christian story, right into the core of every detail, is true. no matter what.

I used to study a great deal in the Chinese tradition which was and are very impressive, but all I am left with today in my memory of it all is that while carrying a pail of water at night the moon is reflected in the water. Get it? The moon is in the pail.

Oh well, then I turned to a somewhat scientific approach and got quite deep into that but abruptly lost interest when a spokesman, was quoted in print about interest in mind over matter. It had to do with a carnival trick of diving into a pail of water, while riding a horse I think it was. 

There was a west coast idea of this view. The current thinking among the youth at the time was anything goes. They joined one of these churches and until they could vote the sedate elders out, taking over the entire shell of the church for themselves.

So it goes, as someone forgotten famous out of mind liked to say. I say the Christian story is in my very certain mind to be very complex and very true. There are no lose ends. What catches my mind is that Jesus died and rose again. But no other religion has ever even tried to duplicate this twist! 

For Sale

Meanwhile Christianity is the most successful religion we have in the crowd. But there are dimming shadows on the red sails in the sunset. Christianity is not the fastest growing. There is another growing faster. I have to say it, reap for the night is growing.
