Katy, the time that you've known me I've been a pseudo-christian. A lot can happen in a year, and I'm leaning towards being agnostic. And believe you me I've read the Bible front to back to back to front. So, God said that man was evil, right? Well, God sure as hell didn't sit down on a craggy, uncomfortable rock etching in Bible scriptures. His disciples did it. They claim that God was telling him such things. But then we refer back to the "MAN IS EVIL" thing 'cause ever since Eve ate that poisoned apple, they acquired a thing called consciousness. WHAT LUCK! so, man/world is bad. The Bible was written by bad evil men., so to speak.
Another example: Aristotle didn't write a single line in the time of his philosophizing (sp?), but his student, Plato, another great philosopher, wrote everything down. He could be changing it around or being true. It's skeptical since Plato, under his schoolmaster, thought differently.
You don't know what I've become, Katy. I'm not a sophist; one who thinks he knows everything. But I aspire to be a philosopher, one who wants to learn about everything, knowing that he knows nothing. catch my drift? i'm trying to not be pretentious
And if you need books to read other than the Bible *dry-heaves* then ask. Here's a couple for starters:
Conversations with God books, there are 3 in the series. It'll blow you away.
&
Sophie's World. A little girl is discovering the innate amazement of the world around her from a teacher she's never seen.

I hope you're doing okay. If you need help on this whole enlightenment thing, email me. I'm all about this shit. Comparitive religions, philosophy, & yoga, OH MY!
