the talents were "entrusted" for a purpose ... kind of difficult to grasp in our "every man for himself" sort of culture ...

>>I don't really relate much to the condemnation thing, as my vision of her is uniquely personal, with far more understanding and compassion than most active religions convey. Rebuke, maybe. Chide, perhaps. Laugh at the folly, yes, for sure.<<

Understood. All of us have "uniquely personal" assessments of what we believe to be utlimately REAL. Yet, REALITY exists beyond each of our OWN personal beliefs and cognition ...

Also ... if in this physical life there be choices that we can make which are "very unforgiving" or irreparable -- so it must be true at a higher level as well. My God IS LOVE and shows mercy everyday -- that's what the cross of Christ is / was all about.

condemnation, destruction??? what are these, except what people choose INSTEAD of God.
