Imagine, if you will, someone who has a Lamborghini or Maserati in
the garage but only uses it to go the few blocks to the grocery
store!
That seems to be the approach some folks want to take where The
Divine is concerned. Bear in mind, that if the universe is
infinite, The Divine must by definition be as infinite as the
universe.
And so, let's see what might be implied by that.
In politics and society in general, most of us know that a freedom
for must include the same freedom for another, so that a Christian
being allowed to distribute Bibles means that a Muslim would be
free to distribute Korans. It's similar here. If The
Divine is infinite, then we have to consider the
implications. That includes the implication that we don't
know the number of ways The Divine can be seen, and therefore we
have no idea how many other paths are as valid as our own.
No matter how much I think I might know about The Divine, all I
know is one small part of one small corner.
And here we'll explore that with a look at some writings which show
what just some of that might mean.
Blessed Be!
