Mary was not Jewish?? That is a real laugher. I really don't know how Fundies get from point A to point B using absolutely no reason at all. Of course Mary was Jewish. |

Good question but it would make me far too human and something that I could not sustain for long. Your womanity and my humanity are opposites and therefore are we all part human and part woman and so we are either human or woman to the same extent that we are not woman or human. That is, in our total being are we all part woman and part human and in this sense is Mary the essence of our womanity never to be defiled by our humanity (which equals the sin against the HS). In this isolated existence Mary becomes the primary reason behind our search for destiny and her release will be after an equalibrium is found (thanks be to God and therefore called "Annunciation) between our humanity and our womanity. To make this short (because I don't think you are interested in this), Mary is never Jewish or Catholic because she is beyond theology and enigmatic because in our womanity we are non-rational and therefore beyond the concept sin. Here, of course, the concept sin can only exist if we have a human nature which in turn can only be conceived to exist if we have a woman nature. In Gen. this is why the TOL (tree of Life) precedes the TOK (tree of Knowledge). |

Some of you respondents at this thread may be new to the EyeEye site, and not-know that trying to pursue rational discussion w/ Amos may drive yez nuts....
As for the color BLUE (which Christian sects tend otherwise NOT to use *liturgically* because it is so long & strongly typified as belonging to *Judaism*)....., it is of interest that if you look at e.g. Orthodox(Eastern) iconography, you find that the BVM, Theotocos, is dressed uniformly in horrid pond-scum shades of a muddy dark GREEN! because, hah, hah the initial BLUE pigments of those icons has been degraded by light & chemicals. Didn't you ever wonder about that? |
