Don't feel left out akido - I think some might find you difficult to 'catagorize' perhaps, or from your own POV....what section do you think you'd be seen as being included on? - I consulted Choleric privately and gave him some descriptions of what category I could be included or identified as, but he only choose a few of those descriptions from my list (spiritualist & universalist...although the latter designation is not necessarily as a 'Christian Universalist' although I believe in aspects of that view, but a totally cosmic universalist, being a student of universal truths, principles and archetypes),....me being pretty 'eclectic'. - as I can also roll as a gnostic or theosophist, among other cutting edge catagories (on some points or occasions) like agnostic-skeptic/pantheist/perennialist/free thinker/soul-pioneer.
I acknowledge your contributions on the board and have proved that by reps and other comments, so I hope you'd respect that. But like yourself, I hold a different and unique perspective on things. We both enjoy sharing in our own individual way, flavor and fashion. Others might be more content to be sock-puppets or parrots.
On that note, I carry on the tradition of keeping it flowing as a 'creative dialogue',....and exploration/expansion of consciousness,....after all...that's all that's going on here. Some are more apt or able to follow along, others are more narrow-minded/bigoted/ignorant, etc. and can only respond as far as their 'mentality' allows. In any case,...each writer in the TOL family (especially us veterans who been here for a good number of years) bear their own legacy, as a tree is known by its fruit.
This thread and its title is obviously 'entertainment' for those of us who know better, but the show must go on.

1. I have been banned several times--the latest reason being "disruptive" and "blasphemous."
2. I like to share what I have learned Christian history, just because learning about the cultural context of Jesus preaching makes my own faith so much deeper and richer.
3. Strangely, I still hold out hope that folks will pay close attention to how the Bible supports my conclusions. But the fact is the words I quote from Jesus' speech and the rest of the New Testament fail to barely even register with most of the people on TOL.
4. I am surprised I didn't make the list....
