Having female priests (they don't even have the decency to call themselves priestesses :)) makes anything possible. We have one in Adelaide who pops up on talk-back radio every now and again who calls herself Father Joan!. I repeat: when Christianity goes secular, there is no need for it.

Meanwhile refer to the essays posted on Spencer Gear's long essay.
Then add these two references too: On the nature of the "fairies-at-the-bottom-of-the-garden" essentially childish (even infantile) mommy-daddy good luck parental deity ideas that mis-inform the kind of religion promoted by Natasha http://www.aboutadidam.org/readings/parental_deity/index.html The Spiritual Gospel of Saint Jesus of Galilee http://www.dabase.org/up-6.htm Related essays on Reality as Indivisible Conscious Light via http://www.beezone.com/da_publications/broken.html Plus essays on the Feminine Principle or SHAKTI http://www.beezone.com/shakti/TheShaktiHerPlaywithAdiDa.html Not much SHAKTI to be found in institutional patriarchal religiosity!

strangely enough those who hate Christ the most claim He does not exist. Just look at Australia's top rugby player being sacked for believing in a 'fairytale'. The god deniers know that the resurrection of Christ is evident that all men (and women) will be judged by the Resurrected King. Many of the same fools that deny their Creator virtue signal their man made gw nonsense while worshipping 'mother' earth.

Christian-ISM as a would be world conquering power-and-control-seeking cult is of course the most "successful" Scapegoat vector/vehicle.
It is also very much the leading-edge Western manifestation of the at all times and in all places dramatized World Mummery. This reference introduces both the literary masterpiece The Mummery Book, and the Scapegoat Book too. The Scapegoat drama is at the root of Western civilization (in particular). http://www.adidaupclose.org/Literature_Theater/index.html#mummery Posted by Daffy Duck, Tuesday, 23 April 2019 11:22:19 AM

And the bombings of Churches in Sri Lanka reinforces that religious extremists have a dark side
Their belief in fairies have fangs on. Sectarian violence between religions continues in the less educated, more "God fearing" countries. Posted by plantagenet, Tuesday, 23 April 2019 12:01:53 PM

People who believe in some kind of supreme being are placing the responsibility for their own actions in that being - not taking personal responsibiltiy for what they think, say, or do..
