[ sweet jesus ]
so somehow I happened upon Kahlil Gibran's Jesus: Son of Man...
It rocks my worries off. It's this collection of ... um ... perspectives from these supposed contemporaries of ze fisher of men. and it's amaaaazing.
The Poet who makes poets of us all. The spirit who knocks at our door that we may wake and rise and walk out to meet the truth naked and unencumbered.
I don't know if it's just Gibran or what, but that version of Christiansanity seems much closer to the truth than anything else I've ever read about religion. It doesn't really make any claim to historical truth, but only the mythological truth - whatever seems accurate, whatever has the right rhythm. |
