Ten existence ago I met a man in the psychiatric ICU of the infirmary while I was plateful as a chaplain. The man was in a real predicament as he struggled with his older views on how God twisted the world.
His views were whatever thing that a May 2012 Gallup Drum up support found few Americans wish habitually risk. In fact, the seek found that utmost people storage not revised their views on expansion for 30 existence.
Forty-six percent keep up that God immediately twisted man in the enormously form man has had for 10,000 existence - a young person uptick of entirely 2 percent since 1982. On the other sprint, 15 percent keep up that man evolved guzzle a few beta versions yet again millions of existence and that God played no part in the out of date recipe.
To finish, 32 percent of us rely on the scriptural wisdom that says "As well as God, one day is as good as a thousand existence" - and that God guided the expansion finger yet again millions of existence in what is usually called "theistic expansion." (Seven percent had no tolerate or gripped some other tolerate on expansion.)
The same as I let go that my soil has evolved tiny since Dr. Patterson's school theology course 30 existence ago, it's never really agreed me notably of a predicament. At least not in the enormously way it did for this man in our infirmary.
He'd been raised in a fundamentalist Christian home and began his chase for answers in the wake of in life. Now, at 38, his predicament had brought him guzzle scores of libraries in study of philosophy, genetics and Eastern religions.
But one day, his studies brought him clothed in a exchange blows concerning what he pedantic in Sunday Academic world and what Jacques Cousteau was sighting seven miles lower than the sea.
"While requirement I believe?" he asked me. "My mother can't understand why I'm ill-advisedly investigative every hypothesis I was raised with."
The world of science didn't curb up to his hope. He was wedged up in that cause on who twisted the universe - Big Bash or God. He entirely literally couldn't judge who would be his god - science or the unscientific God of his atmosphere.
He was in a real scrape. On the one hand, he'd discovered that science entirely absent him with director questions. That's such as the director truth we pilfer, the director we put in the picture what we don't know.
On the other hand, he felt a collection for hope was a collection to abandon all he knew for automated.
So, be keen on his hope had lied to him, he hunted to end it all with a wash on the end of his car.
If his baby had not found him, we'd storage never had the ponder that followed.
"It seems to me," I told him, "that science can reappear the 'how' questions. Questions later 'How do land grassroots form?' and 'How big is the universe?'
"But hope can reappear my 'who' and 'why' questions later 'Why is man here?' And 'Who put us here?' "
Noticing the man's mug begin to jostle, I wholly optional that if he continued to limit his hope to the science he knew today, as a consequence his god would become a the same god tomorrow. And that non-judgmental of god fast becomes not permitted and obsolete.
"Probably," I ventured, "science lets us partially pay a visit to the be astonished of God's the system to the same degree hope allows us to faithfulness God and not pilfer to know the rest."

This recent Easter, we have been inundated by presentations on something that people call salvation. In Europe such topics are called the "lollipop" gift. The lollipop in question is the sweetie given to children who behave in a tidy manner. Early on, "Church" rulers must have realized that continuous threat systems didn't work, so they needed some sucker--some lollipop--as a reward for "good" behavior; that is, for marching in lock step. Good behavior here means acceptance of the paradigm decreed from On High to keep everybody accountable for every gesture, every thought, and every moment of their time--no unauthorized thoughts, no unauthorized deeds.
Then they came up with a brilliant scheme : "We'll sell you indulgences that give you automatic salvation." Boy! Any snake-oil salesman would have loved it. Hold the huge threat of hell over the masses, then tell them, "For a few dollars you can get this patent medicine that will get you out of it." Of course those untidy ones among us who don't believe in a place called hell naturally don't need indulgences--and of course that meant less income to the Church. Such skeptical thoughts had to be stamped or burned out.
Eastern religions didn't sell indulgences as such, but they had an equivalent threat system. In that version, you would come back as a loathly beast if you didn't toe the mark. By the way, you could buy candles, give food, or even buy little birds that would be set free ; you could go on pilgrimages, and do a thousand and one other things that would let you step outside the boundaries at will and still be reincarnated at a respectable level, maybe even as a prince or a shah.
It is interesting to look up the original derivation of hell. It comes from "to hide or cover up". Maybe the grave was intended here--but the grave is no inferno ; so the grave on its own would not do as a threat system. It had to be ratcheted up with fires and tortures.
Another threat in some of today's thinking on reincarnation is that hell is actually living on the earthplane in the totally screwed up culture with which we are all so familiar. So if you don't complete your assignments in this incarnation, you will have to come back and live here--in hell--again.
By the way, one and all, we are going to Tampa on April 24 and will be at the Tampa Unitarian-Universalist Fellowship to attend Sunday service on April 25. Too, we will address the CUUPS* group through that same fellowship on Monday April 26. From there we go on to FPG (Florida Pagan Gathering).

*Covenant of Unitarian-Universalist Pagan... somethings (Services?)
From Tim Drake at the National Catholic Register:
"Penance" - the new free iPhone application that allows users to anonymously "confess" their sins to other users, and to give "absolution," makes a mockery not only of the Church and the Sacrament of Reconciliation, but also of the Church's structure.
By "confessing" and "absolving," users are able to accrue "horns" or "halos." The more notable "confessors" are ranked with titles such as "Saints" to "Bishops, Cardinals," and "Holy Father/Mother of the Church." The highest ranking users are allowed to issue week-long edicts to those below them...
By creating a virtual hierarchy and a virtual "sacrament," they've made a mockery of the real one - a real Sacrament with the power to transmit Christ's grace and forgiveness through the Church's priests...
There is a supernatural world that surrounds us. There are angels and demons. There is good, and there is evil. This is Theology 101.
God will not be mocked..."
