Mankind rejects the truth..... >>Why do we need to believe anymore than be good to thy neighbor as we would have him be good to thyself? Why does it have to be anymore complex than that? I think that is a universal value that can be accepted by all men. What more do we really need?>> ....precisely because it's too simple. Simple things are plain. They are pure. They are fresh. And when things are this simple, this pure and this fresh we either are naturally and spiritually 1) attracted - for we find delight in receiving, feeling and sharing these truths; or 2) opposed - for we find delight in things which conditionalize, refract and confuse the truth, thereby making it appear complex. The simplest things are the greatest. As Dean Fagerstrom received from his angelic sister, Maxine who said "say it so simply that only the humble minds, hearts and souls will understand." It's pretty obvious mankind in particular and this world in general is doesn't have much stomach for these simple spiritual truths. And this is to be expected. And it's not something to be claimed either. For the truth cannot be claimed, controlled, conditionalized or hidden. For like a genie, once the light of truth get out of these claim-control bottles it will radically chance the world. And this is the spiritual fire that quickening all over the world. Our Lord, per his promise, is "making all things new." 119293!!

God sent what was needed to this earth. In the person of His only begotton Son, Jesus the Messiah. In Him, salvation is found and no other. Because He lived....well, yes in part, but because He died--And was raised again, and SITS at the right hand of the Father, having completed His work and promise. You may wish to live at ease with your neighbor, but without Jesus there is no Salvation of your souls. Your expression comes off as ridicule aimed at those that choose to believe, so indeed it looks as if you are but another hypocrite practicing your 'brand' of enlightenment.
