God's Christ Theory
~ Anne Carson
God had no emotions but wished temporarily
to move in man's mind
as if He did: Christ.
Not passion but compassion.
Com- means 'with.'
What kind of witness would that be?
Translate it.
I have a friend named Jesus
from Mexico.
His father and grandfather are called Jesus too.
They account me a fool with my questions about
salvation. They
say they are saving to move to Los Angeles.
