Unless you call it "Post-polytheism" or "Neo-polytheism" then it's wicked cool. Isn't monotheism looking a little behind the times? Still one should keep in mind that by the time the average person learns something is now cool, the real cool peope have moved on.

Polytheism > Monotheism > Atheism
Monotheism is just a step towards atheism. Christians should just accept their polytheism to buck the trend! |

Well, if Christianity started from gnosticism or Marcionism there were at least two gods, the demiurge and the unknown higher god. Then there's Mary, who morphed into an unofficial mother goddess. |

. . . and of course the art of godmanship is to raise our identity from the lower house to the upper house (left to right brain) while we remain sane when we get 'there.' Based on this analogy is it easy to see why the ego must be annihilated somehow and in our mythology that is demonstrated by way of crucifixion wherein the church that got us thusfar must also be prepared to finsh what they started so that a clean break from religion can be the final end in our search for meaning in life . . . which then is why there is no temple in the city of God (Rev.21:22).
The Trinty concept exists only while we are in oblivion as 'like god' (of Gen.3) when we first enter the age of reason and begin to write our personal identiy in the TOK that was a blank slate at birth (more or less), but is wherein we create our own 'eidetic images' or shepherds and thus is wherein we will/can have richess on earth that later, as in after rebirth as it may be called, are converted into our disciples in Galilee where the transition must take place from the lower house to the upper house and there entertain our disciples now as riches in heaven once again (Rev.14:13). The Holy Spirit at this early stage in life is 'with us' (Jn.14:17) and is in us while in Galilee where we so are spiritually enriched with the descend of the dove after the convergeance of our twain mind. This then ends the Trinity concept for us, and that the HS is seen as the third person is because of Gen.3:15 where the woman presiding over the upper house (TOL) strikes at the woman presiding over the lower house (TOK = Eve or temple tramp) who in her turn strikes at our heel so that we can brag about our accomplishments while abroad (in oblivion) as is shown by Aristotles Posterior Analytics conclusion where the primary premiss of all our engagement is prior to us by intuition (= memory of our soul or TOL).'' So then to finish this let me add that the woman of the TOL later becomes known as Mary who so was the dowry of Joseph and hence the Coronation of Mary is what puts the icing on the cake in recognition that the woman is [partially] in charge of the hero in us. Hence, Mary is our queen if angels in the Loretta Lithany. |
