Anastasia,
Thank you for posting those links. I like the youtube one a little better because it has almost everything the other one does, but loads a LOT faster, and is only 7 minutes long. That kind of information is an interest of mine. I have even been taught it in our church meetings. I have a book on my shelf that covers some of it and I have a very good DVD presentation that covers some of what you mentioned. I found both of them very informative, although misled and conveniently incomplete in places. (There are holes in their argument.) They say that they are interested in truth, especially at the beginning of the longer one, and have done a great job of showing their viewpoint. But they don't seem interested in finding what is true so much as they are interested in attempting to debunk myth (which they only did 1/2 of the job because their information is incomplete or they reject what does not agree with them). But historically, it just adds weight to what I've known for many years, and adds more detail to what I already knew. It will make a good resource. Thanks again!
The religion that I belong to defines themselves as Christian, but mainstream Christian religions totally reject it as a Christian religion as they understand it. Understandably so when you look under their covers. I'm not surprised at them either. I have met so many "experts" on my religion but they never have a clue what they are talking about. Anyway, side issue.
>>"And if you mean a book on my religious views"
Nope, I meant it as you wrote it, not religious views. I think it would be very interesting, but I have heard of it before. I know someone just like you - same experiences, same dreams, same clairvoyance, same offshoot of paganism, same track that you are on. It is amazing how close you two coincide, but he is a little further down the road from you in age and experiences. His life is totally destroyed.
I have found over and over just as you have - you just can't get through to some people. Maybe someday we can discuss true Christianity, not mainstream Christianity if you are ever interested in what is real, factual. You would then, at least, understand why I state my opinions as fact - because they can be proven.
