it seems that to elevate oneself higher than god, it would have to "know" more than god, so, it would likewise be able to "do" more than god, was said to have done...

which, if it be the god spoken of in the "biblical" text, means one woud have to first create a cosmos identical to our's...

or so it would seem using the "current interpretation's" of the biblical "god", lol...

but, on the other hand, text also say's each human is a king, and each a priest, and each a child god, that created itself, picking it's own path, or experience before arrival, to amke itself smarter, or wiser, by seperating itself into "two", half of itself in the human realm, the other half in the "god realm"...

saying each has a telepathic connection to the "higher realm", that is instructing it in how to love, or have courage, or valor, and that such things are only rooted, or founded in the principle of "the care of other's before self"...

then continuing to say, when such is learned as the true want, the two become as one, and "it" become's an adult god...

during this "transition", from human, to angel, or into adult god, it is likened unto a snake shedding it's skin, and the caterpiller entering the cacoon, and morphing into the butterfly, saying man would not 'always' be limited to having to "walk or crawl" upon the ground...

ok, seem to be leaving the subject of courage, lol...

peace

this is precisely the reason i no longer believe anything and consider myself agnostic. when one's beliefs change or or become dislodged then how valid were the beliefs in the first place? to believe is to think you know in my view. my daughter, a devout christian, says that she KNOWS that god created the universe. she doesn't even use the word belief. she has faith that what the bible says is fact. she knows these things. i don't know anything as absolute fact other than my experiences.

Within the cosmos i stand. On this earth , above me the stars , above me the entrails of energies and wonders i cannot begin to imagine. In awe i tread the universe , the world before me . In reverence i behold all things. for who am i . Wonders my eys have yet to behold within this world i habitate.In the moment , in infinity i am i stand without contentions without rebuttal but with acceptance as one with the universe.

wise words any calibur of entity would understand as wisdom, be such as these, as for eye's such as these, the universe unfold her secret's for, and roll back the scrolls of the mind for, to allow sight past the veil, that seperate all arrogance as ignorance from true all knowing......

piece to piece bind the blind, the knowing be built, each ripple each tide, no guilt can stand, and nothing can hide, for the universe dear brother, is about to unwind, spilling her water's the secret's of all time, and the rains did come down, and open each book the brain's, each life need no hope no leader no pope, unroll the scroll and each pay their self toll, the reaper itself come to blame, what itself did make itself now come to claim...

peace
