He also said, what you have seen in secret, what you have heard whispered in the ear, that shout from the housetops. What had been esoteric or private, he was all in favour of making Public. Too bad he didn't have the Internet, but then he has me to put it up here for him

So you take his silence in the NT on the subject, and assume that he meant to say "this" or "that" but didn't? How can one assume the position of a person when said person has been completely silent on the matter? It makes no sense. Paul's silence on the matter is NOT some sort of blank check allowing one to fill in the "blanks" at will.

No, I wouldn't assume any more than what he does say. I just know from THAT, however, that he was a kabbalist.

Just an attempted joke about the Internet... but I wouldn't presume that he agreed any more with QBLH than what he plainly does do, from his writings.

The QBLH is so voluminous that one could prove almost ANY thing from it; I only know a few of the better known items and passages. It isn't a big thing of mine.

It's probably more correct to say Paul was familiar with Jewish mysticism, but insisting that Paul was, since his conversion on the road to Damascus, a "Kabbalist" is infering and assuming TOO much. No support for this idea.

I wouldn't presume that he agreed any more with QBLH than what he plainly does do, from his writings

This seems fair enough.

"I thought UFO broke up in the 80s."

Dude, that was AAT&T! They used to open for Boston. I think.

"The chariots of the Celestials [elohim] are twenty thousand; YHWH's is one of them." --Palms

Could you give the actual number for that particular quote, so we can compare it to the original text? This is just as valid as saying:

"Let your concious be your guide" --In the Bible somewhere.

History/racial memory of planet bound life wouldn't pique desire to to actually be on a planet, indeed, the bad parts and scary monsters would end up being the prevailing view of planet bound life.

What faith tradition are you following that you can make God, the almighty, the one, into "little g" god that is one among many, and yet feel the need to give Him the honorific of reducing His name to the four-letter version that honors Him by making His holy name unpronounceable?

Alien races had "discovered" Earth, but were waiting for us to "grow up."

And it was revealed in the last book of the trilogy that an unclean demonic spirit was speaking through the head of a criminal to defame God and misdirect humans into all kinds of unclean behavior. (And this predated Hillary!)

Have you ever made contact with a weed, or a piece of a rock in your or your neighbors' backyard?

How is it a religious topic and what specifically drew you to the conclusion that there is no intelligent life outside of Earth?

The only way for there to be life on other planets is for God to have put it there or for it to have evolved there. Evolution is a religion contrary to the bible but both are religions. The anti-God crowd would absolutely love to find life on other planets. It would free them from God in their minds and prove their religion of evolution. It will never happen.

I believe His best joke, comes in the form of differing religious beliefs.

How do you know God doesn't compromise His principles? They are His, He can do anything He wants
