    SG, (Hi there)
    ...Deep stuff Sanurian, the most disturbing being "why doesn't God have a website?" This should be food for thoughts for the rest of the day...
    Yeah, well why not?

    I'm buggered if I can understand why various manifestations of Supreme Beings chose places like Bethlehem, Mecca and all the rest, so long ago, to do what, exactly? Create confusion, perhaps. Corner some market for apples and dades, perhaps?

    Maybe just "Karma".
    :lol:

    A great idea, Bert
    ...Can we keep it to things we can see, the practical approach?...
    You mean by that, I presume, like the Balinese?

    The "seen" and "unseen" stuff? (Sikala and Niskala.)
    Yes, that makes a lot of sense, too.

    Historically, "Religion" has always been a good business for someone or other. Can't see that much has changed in the 21st Century.

    :shock:

    Yep, go to the Islamic Museum in KL and look at the size of the prophet's house in Medina. Like many many prophets before and after, having a direct line to the lord pays mighty dividends.

    Re: the lord's website..yes I agree, as we've become more and more educated the lord seems to have become shyer and shyer until eventually it simply comes down to trusting one's faith. Oh, and those who still seem to have direct line that needs lubricating with gifts and money.....

    Congrats, Bert, for the 3000 posts you've surpassed. I didn't notice either as what Jim says, evidently none of us look to the lower side of the page.

    Back on topic, Sanurian, I'm lost.
