I'll start with what is known: I can't believe you asked me if your logic was offHey Eye. George states that he believes that some things listed in the bible actually occurred, and most did not. He believes that he is christ because of specific biblical content, which I am assuming he believes actually occurred, is similar to his own life. My question to him is; what if the biblical content he is basing his belief that he is christ on is included in the majority of the bible that did not actually occur? Wouldn't that mean that he may not be christ? IOW, if the Harry Potter series wasn't fiction and I realized that my own life is strikingly similar to the lives of sorcerers in those books, I may believe that I, too, may be a sorcerer. But if I found out the books were actually fiction, the similarities of those sorcerer's lives to my own wouldn't really mean anything, since those things in the books did not actually happen because they are fiction. Is my logic not as clear as I perceive it to be?
What a western believer calls Christ is the 'core' of a person (many do not realize that this is the core of their belief). At the lowest the ego has less sway and what is left is the 'core' being. The core can be seen as pure potential - "rise again".
Did you say Harry Potter? Did I say "rise again"?
