While We Wait: Part 2

[Birdjaguar]

It's over, Birdy, the analogy has finished.

Come back again soon!

 

[Perfection]

I'm not leaving, Birdy. I'm just saying the analogy is over.

Well, I'm going to bed, so be nice.

 

[TheBladeRoden]

But who is the anus if not the guy with the goatse avatar?

I reported this a while ago and nothing happened. Oh well....

We will now move this discussion over here.

I am convinced that if we could tell the supernatural story of Christ word for word as of a Chinese hero, call him the Son of Heaven instead of the Son of God, and trace his rayed nimbus in the gold tread of Chinese embroideries or the gold lacquer of Chinese pottery, instead of in the gold leaf of our own old Catholic paintings, there would be a unanimous testimony to the spiritual purity of the story. We should hear nothing then of the injustice of substitution or the illogicality of atonement, of the superstitious exaggeration of the burden of sin or the impossible insolence of an invasion of the laws of nature. We should admire the chivalry of the Chinese conception of a god who fell from the sky to fight the dragons and save the wicked from being devoured by their own fault and folly. We should admire the subtlety of the Chinese view of life, which perceives that all human imperfection is in very truth a crying imperfection.

Discuss!

Not much to discuss. Probably correct in general, as shown by cases. CS Lewis talked about how to "steal past those watchful dragons" and slip Christianity in to people disguised as literature, and did so with The Chronicles of Narnia, which some people still don't realize are Christian. A more recent writer (born 1965) has been doing so too. Hands up everyone who can tell me who the more recent one is without looking! You may look to confirm it.

JK Rowling of course, her books reek of Christian stuff.

Harry Potter is Jesus. Or so some children lead me to believe.

No Sirius is Jesus. The arch, the veil, the sacrifice, the passing on....duh.

If Sirius were Jesus then how does the Resurrection fit in?

Oh, wait.

I am pretty sure Harry Potter died from sacrifice then came back because he was to good to die.

Righto. Any further suggestions for books by people born in 1965 with hidden Christian messages? If you think it's the Harry Potter books, would you care to point out more parallells? silver in specific, what does the arch signify? The others I can understand.

The one from the same country and city and with the same interests? Probably yes.

Actually, I think I also saw alex994 in there.

Hardly ever notice peoples locations, certainly never remember them.
I've had 3 names over their kept forgetting the password and usernames, So now I'm called Reptile .

Editing: You haven't even registered your games?

I was rather disturbed when I saw someone named "Erez" from Israel on the Dresden Codak forums.

 

[jeps]

Symph, that MIGHT be because Erez is one of two ways to write the word for Israel without saying israel. Haerez (ha means the) is the land, referring to Israel. Das and alex994 on the other hand...

 

[Swissempire]

Swissempire is on paradox

/is not notable

Don't know a word of Hebrew, so I wouldn't have known. Learn something new everyday. I guess that means they're both just terribly uncreative then.

I'm Snow King over there, though I hardly ever appear. Paradox's last few games have terribly disappointed me, so I haven't payed the outrageous price for EU 3 yet.

Yes, I am indeed alex994 in paradox

Obviously he's talking about Cactus Jack Foley.

I learned when Israelite9191 made 'Eretz Yisroyel' in an NES.
