I never went to CCD...! That tip almost changes everything!
I had to have an actual Catholic explain it to me...now I'm nonplussed.
Correct me at will...I do not have all the details.
First, god chose a Jew[?],Mary's mother, to conceive Mary, "immaculatly", so that Mary [from "mar", meaning "The Sea"], was not born of "original sin"...I wonder how that worked...
-Then, God, having chosen Mary,[a 14 yr. old Jew?], to provide an Ova for [god's special angel?] to [fertilize?], and conceive/gestate Jesus. How was this done...?
Did Mary actually have intercourse with God or the angel that came on/with the "light"? and does the "light" represent ejaculate?
Perhaps "life"...?
I can only look at this myth,[imo], in terms of symbols. The idea of a "garden of Eden" doesn't resonate with me, but the idea of "original sin" may... I would relate to the primitive reptilian instincts we inherited from the brains of our ancestors...and I'm not an "evolutionist", exactly. I think there was some extraterrestrial intervention, at some point in history.
Edit, [I'm tryin'] I think when men attained the "knowledge" that they were part of the "pregnancy" equasion, they were already Predisposed [as Predators] to use it as a means of control and domination. [-Bump...ooops, we hit the Christian Fundies and the Anti-Abortion/Anti-Womens Rights issue...]
Thanks for the enlightenment...after all this time!
