Beauties of Belief Structures

Date Line July 17, 2007

It is one of the beauties of belief structures, they all, eventually, predict their own demise in favor of a new age ... one which will emerged after the current belief structure plays out under the weight of new facts ... belief is the realm that is one step past the limits of understanding within the physical/mental world.

Christianity is based on a teaching in Judaic thought which predicted a messiah who would come to fulfill the laws and prophecies. In turn, Christianity has the Revelation, which predicted a thousand years and then a period of judgment followed by a new kingdom.

The thousand years began with the first real pope and the identification of the Christian age as being above the kings. It ended when it was recognized to be a realm of corruption.

We can pick the ending dates, the start of the period of judgment; but we must put it back in time.

It most certainly existed for Chaucer in his Canterbury Tales.

It most certainly existed with Martin Luther and the nailing of the parchment to the church door.

It most certainly existed when the new world was found, occupied, corrupted, and in the end recreated, by the Europeans.

Pick a starting date, and you can select the events of the ending date.

For Christians today, the evangelicals who we know from their actions to be fools and hypocrites, the age of judgment has yet to come; they do not realize that we are, by any impersonal objective evaluation, in it. This two can last a thousand years; what we are told is a divine day.

A day in heaven, a thousand years on earth. An hour in heave? Is that just forty-one, or forty-two, years; is that the age of man judgment? Is it possible we are judged on, or within, the first forty years of our life?

Each day, each night, in the Brahmin tradition, is a thousand divine years long. A hard concept to get ones mind around.

When did that come into being? It was reported in Christianity; not in the Judea texts, as the reverse of the Brahmin.

For Brahma, a divine year is twelve thousand years of man. For a Day of Brahma twelve million years of human growth is seen; for a night of Brahma twelve million years of reabsorption.

Time concepts for creation between divine and human? Does any of that matter within the realm of beliefs? Do we care about food in our stomachs and shelter from the elements? Or do we care about the lives of the divinities we have invented?

We have invented. We have invented! We have invented? Have we really invented these deities, or have they invented and informed us? If the latter, why?

Could it be that birth, death, rebirth, are the very same process the deities experience? Could it be? Is it possible? Could we be the fetus from which the deity will emerge? Can that be the true meaning of life?

Is it possible? The impulse is to reject it. We, the mighty human race which is destined to stand with the divine, we are only a fetus?

We are in fact only the divine? We are the supreme deity reproducing itself after it died giving us conception?

We are the true immortals who are working so hard, so diligently, to destroy ourselves? To destroy our environment? To what?

To What? To destroy the womb which will give us divine life?

Are we a cancer in the divine fetus? Is that what we are and shall we, as such, be destroyed by natures immune system? Our planet can vanish without its absence being noted.

How significant, or insignificant, are we really? Are we the center of the universe? Do the stars revolve around us? Is this speck of matter of all that importance when seen in the larger context?

How important are any who destroy themselves in the name of belief?
