Good bye

I thought for a while that I was mistaken, forgot something...

But after a while I began to realize that my posts were considered, obnoxious or unworthy...

---and deleted them.

Took me a while but seeing my posts there...and then seeing them disapear on several

groups I find interesting. 

At no great loss to the Cafe, I shall discontinue my attempts.

If U are a church-goer as a progressive christian...

Unless there's a new radical version of the Bible, how do you learn Jesus' teachings of Love properly in the church? How are you supposed to understand all kinds of sins commited under the name of God in the OT, ridiculous miracles, birth story and the resurrection story in the NT? Is it easy for you to separate the teachings of Jesus from the Bible? How do you explain if your little kids ask about it?

Knowing God

I have been studying the Gnostic Gospels by Elaine Pagel's  Gnosis is a Greek term meaning "to know".  Writer's of the Gnostic Gospels say that self-knowledge is to know God.  I have difficulty with this and wish to explore it here.
