So maybe they're talking about Jeebus after all.
If he comes 'round, says "hi" and starts getting rid of poverty and child abuse and rape 'n' all sorts of that stuff, and shows us how to heal some diseases, cool. I'm on board. Maybe. If there aren't any strings attached, like prayer and worship and slavish devotion and hell and all of that crap.
Oh yeah, this God she's communicating with is definitely not the xtian God...
what's the name of this "God"...it's what ever you want it to be, remember jenny said she was open-minded to the possibility of this "God" even being alien http://atheistforums.org/thread-37161-po...pid1080835
and what is this God saving us from, you ask? I believe it's from all of the religions and the big thick books...not completely sure, but that's what I think
And I don't think there are any strings attached, like prayer and worship and slavish devotion and hell and all whatnot...
But I do think we have to love others as ourselves... which can be quite difficult at times, and might be concidered "slavish devotion" by some
God is saving us from religion? Well, that's unique.
Loving others as ourselves - that's not slavish devotion, that's common sense. No gods required.
And actually, I have already been saved from religion. No gods required there either.
But have your god stop by and introduce (him? her? itself?) -- by itself, without needing to talk THROUGH a human. That would be absolutely history-making. I hope I get to see it.
