If it is within the picture, it must be clearly evident, yes? Or was it the inspiration to draw the picture itself that is the essence of God? Perhaps all artwork contains the essence of God? But in that case, what of artwork of the Hindu, the Jews, Muslims, or other "pagan" cultures? Poo butt rear end

Smoking Crow posted:I am not god because I have sinned God created good and evil both. Without evil, how could you know good? Without sin, how could you know sanctity? The duality suggests the universality. How do the flowers grow? Even the god of spring does not know. Any god which can be described in words is not god. Why does Shiva dance the cosmos?

^^^--Yes, but that definition means that your God is also susceptible to birth and death, and will be eradicated as well at the end of the kalpa.Smoking Crow posted:God cannot be described either. I can't be Hindu bc I'm not Indian and so I don't have a caste to live my dharma in sorry This is true, you cannot be Hindu, as Hinduism is far more than a religion--it's a very much defined by the ways of life of the culture in which it exists. You could be Buddhist though. Buddhism is basically Hinduism reformed for export.

Smoking Crow posted:Eastern Orthodox Christianity and look up Gregory of Nyssa and clement of Alexandria I'm aware of Clement of Alexandria, but you're trying to codify Christianity into a uniform mass that simply doesn't exist. While early Christianity had little to do with damnation and the like, the religion has become heavily defined by it in the general belief. Even if you adhere to an older/outdated/outlier Christian belief (and you can't deny that the Eastern Orthodoxy developed very different from what become the Catholic Church and the Holy Roman Empire), the concept of damnation versus salvation is pretty fundamental to Christianity. That is why you are "saved" when you become Christian. EDIT: Also the orthodoxy of early Christianity wasn't codified until 3 centuries or so after Jesus's alleged death, and ostracized dozens of smaller tribal christian traditions and eradicated even more Gospels.

I struggle with my faith. There's uncertainty in my heart. We also live in a callous, increasingly secular world. Loving Christ is no longer "cool". Still, I yearn to be in His presence.
