"Thoughts
IN-God", it is a presentation of an atheistic approach to theology (aka
pan-en-theism). Basic premise is that God cannot be mediated; God is
IMmediate. That is, all of known reality, mental and physical, provides a
direct, unified, and immediate experience in God.
Likewise Jesus is not our
mediator per se, Jesus is our Messiah because he announced that religious law (while
perhaps pragmatically useful) can never really mediate our immediate place in
God. Only faith can show us how/"where" and what God is. i.e., God is
not a divine person that one can objectify, blame or make appeals to, rather
God is a divine presence that can be lived in to.
So, everything is IN God,
and everything in God (even bad stuff) can, according to Jesus, be found OF
God, if we can learn how to see it and hear it.
Anyway... I'm trying
to make this blog more friendly and creative rather than controversial. There are of course other ways to support humanistic thought and ethics, this is just a theological one based around a form of atheism.
