God 101

Heaven on Earth

BC, before the birth of The Christ & AD, after birth of The Christ. Recently I was reading an article about ‘communications’, signals from outer space. Some may be caused by ‘natural’ phenomena we do not comprehend & others may be folks reaching out to us.

It seems we are in a “post religious” age, the age of PR. In the age of PR ‘aliens’ are our new gods & God. Not to be confused with aliens who come over our border. In some instances they are God like beyond the laws of man.

I accept life after death, a ‘God’ aka higher order. It is viewing what comes after my time here on planet earth as the glass half full. No one knows for sure & if I am wrong no one will know the difference.

One thing for sure, we are in a PR age where humanity exercises little personal morality. Maybe the new gods do not have personal morality, right & wrong, judgmental things in their handbook. Just knowing they are what they are is all that is necessary. Their vanity is what it is about. God’s vanity was articulated in the movie, The Color Purple. That is the perfection that awaits us. “All we need is love”.

The PR age explains why our world is falling apart, we are passing into a new age that does not require belief in God. As long as computer chips are manufactured, the power grids stay up, we are one with new gods.

When the power goes out, it is back to the caves & believing in God in a traditional manner. Fear will replace reason & technology will bow to God. Man is caught between, we are food for these gods.

‘Man’ is made in the image & likeness of God, a spiritual, metaphysical likeness. Destroy ‘man’, “God is dead”, again. Who or what would profit from such a thing?
