Re: Re: how much longer?
I love Jesus. His picture is on my bedroom wall and it's the first face I see when I wake up in the morning. I especially love the fact that he cursed a fig tree for not having any fruit and turned over tables in a temple. I don't get why he did it, but I'm glad he did it. I use it to justify my own self-righteous anger. And my fondness of drama. How come Jesus is the only one who is allowed to get mad? Everybody else get's judged for being angry. Maybe I hand around with too many Buddhists.
I understand the interpretive symbolism. A tree that doesn't bear fruit needs to die and you aren't supposed to turn the house of God into a profit making sinter. But I would have blessed the tree so it would have some fruit, and tolf the money changers that not for profit commerce to benefit the charitable activities of the church were welcome, if they attended a class and agreed to clean up their act.
I'm glad Jesus died for my sins, purchased my soul with his blood, and is coming again like rain on this earth. If I understand all this correctly, it simply means our suffering is needless, and we can give it up, if we can just figure out how. He fixed everything and tossed us the ruby cube puzzle to keep us busy, so we'd all be otherwise engaged when the romulums try to beam everyone out of here to planet hell.
Just a guess.
