I stumbled across an interesting podcast called 'Maybe God'when I was looking for podcastsfeaturingJonas Elrod, who I've written about here on my blog recently after re-watching Elrod's scam movie 'Wake Up', where in my opinion Elrod pretends to be able to see angels, demons and other otherworldly entities.
If Jonas passed a lie detector test arranged by someone like skepticMichael Shermer, then I might believe that Jonas believes what he says he witnessed while going through a "breakdown", until then I don't -
Personally, to me Godis a mystery and while I do believe in "God" for lack of a better word, I don't believe that Jesus was areal historical figure, as far as the Bible paints Him anyway.
Although, I don't have anything against people who believe Jesus is the Living God, if that's what gets them through the night, so be it I say.
There are still many real truths to the story, I believe, if you can put mythical places like Hell on the backburner.
I still believe in karmaand that you will reap what you sow, but an everlasting Hell I can't believe in.
I have no problem going to communion and believing in Jesusin a metaphorical sense, but I can't buy the literal so-called historical version of the story of either the New or Old Testaments.
