Nature excludes God. What is its self-embracing One Law that They are?
Nature embraces the God concept and so has humanity.

We forget that, given the foolishness of supernatural belief.

May I ask.

Do you put God above or below yourself?
God here I define as a best ideal, natural or supernatural or whatever gives you the best rules and laws to live by.
Consider first, that you are an animal first, and anything else after your mental birth.
The God, or best ideal or type of an ant, is an ant.
The God, or best ideal or type of a lion, is a lion.
The God, or best ideal or type of a human being, is a human being.
We are natural and spiritual beings, not supernatural beings, and should thus follow a natural and spiritual religion, not a supernatural based religion.
Thoughts?
Jesus is the best or ideal type of a man: that description of Jesus suits a modern age which is scientific not supernatural.
It does, as far as it goes, until he gets grandiose. He was inclusive, a socialist, a leveller, through peaceful means. He was kind.

Savior = supernatural to most Christians.

We are saved from hell and sent to heaven, which are both imaginary concepts.

It is immoral to want to ride Jesus as a scapegoat into heaven.

Christian morality is garbage and they don't care and just go for the free ride.

Savior....messiah.
Scapegoat.

What every slavish spirit needs to cope with existence.


Savior, imaginary transition form corporeal to incorporeal being.
Savior, the christened one - chosen.

I know right wing Christian morality and it sucks.

It begin with embracing the notion that it is salvific to punish the innocent instead of the guilty.

Can't get much lower than that, except for inquisitions and jihads.

I don't know about chosen.

Nowhere in the Bible is Jesus ever chosen or elected to the Christ position.

He is the christened one, no?
Who christened him?

From the Greek Xρistos....Xρισιμος, useful....
A useful scapegoat, for man to unload his imperfections, i.e., sins.

The Jews select a chicken actualize the unloading of their yearly sins, into it, and then sacrifice it...
This is the sacrificial lamb.

Sacrifice....from the Latin sacrum facia - to make sacred.
Christ is made sacred by slaughtering him as the Jews slaughter a lamb.
Scapegoat.

Judas goat....the use of a goat to lead the sheeple to slaughter.
Jesus is a Judas goat.

I Had not noticed Jesus getting grandiose. Can you quote ?

Obviously 'this one' has no idea nor clue, yet, of what the words, 'The only way to the Father is through 'me',' actually means and is referring to, exactly.

Abrahamism is slave ethics, or herd psychology.
The feminine spirit dominating.

Feminization of man

Yes. One does wonder which utterances in the Gospels are actually said by Jesus, and which by later commentators.

Do you feel that non-violent resistance to evil is effeminate?
