The Gospel of the Tao and learning to live well within the Yogic Chakras...of self-discipline and the developement of conciousness, charactor and soul.
C S Lewis just took you on a journey thru Taoism , Buddhism ,Hinduism, and from Helenistic thought . Lewis makes his case thru the use of concepts not originating with Christianity , but with that reservoir of sensitivity innate within the consciousness of every individual from birth and in the human spirit.
With all this enlightement predating Christianity by centuries .... the author takes one paragraph at the end to have you believe that Jesus was the original author of the Tao ? Interesting Lewis chooses to use helenistic, oriental and buddhist concepts, reason and thought to explain the Gospels .<g>
Salvation only for you Greg , and others like you . But that is becoming fastly more and more----> common knowledge , that this salvation is not just found in the dream of christianity alone .
The final truth of culture, modern man , and civilization does not lay with Christ , but with what was always there to begin with .
The symbol of the TAO is one of the most popular symbols with the youth of the modern world ....and ancient.
(Neo thinks it is just a passing fad )
And , as Steven said to you before , you have no right whatever to push your religion on others or your dogmas.
This is an-------> absolute truth.
The genie is out of the bottle ....and it is not the property of Christianity . Christianity is just a tiny part of the entire truth of the evolving landscape of humanity.
