Bible Note: Simcaht Glad to hear you had a good time. Getting away is a good time to write. It seems that new surroundings stimulate the brain and ideas deeply buried bubble up. Come on! You know as well as I do anyone with just a passing knowledge of "ten sephirot of the tree of life" will see no problem. The problem is in the idea that all creation emanated from the essence of God rather out of nothing. The Kabbulah conclusion then becomes that since we are of the same essence as God, we therefore are gods. That my friend is what we call humanism today. Give it up guy!! Kabbulah is not going to sell to this audience. If you want to discuss the Bible from a orthodox Judo/Christian perspective let’s go. However if you going to keep trying to sell this Kabbulah mysticism you will probably find far more productive fields elsewhere. EdB |
