I agree completely and you make an important observation that I had not completely considered.
My theological positions:

-God created us in His image, not the other way around.
-The Bible is redeemed by it's good parts.
-Pure monotheism, simple repentance.
-YHVH is LORD
-The real Jesus is not God, the real YHVH is not a monster.
-Eternal life is a gift from the Living God.
-Keep the Commandments, keep your salvation.
-I have accepted YHVH as my Heavenly Father, LORD and Savior.

I am inspired by Jesus to worship none but YHVH, and to serve only Him.

"Spouting disjointed gibberish only makes one appear unhinged and does a disservice to other Christians"

Well said.

It is moderately surprising that other Christians do not object to being defamed by the gibberish.

Great examples. Anything can be justified if you have a good enough imagination.

Society and its morals evolve and will continue to evolve. The bible however remains the same and just requires more and more apologetics and claims of "metaphors" and "symbolism" to justify it.

Prayer is like rubbing an old bottle and hoping that a genie will pop out and grant you three wishes.

There is much about this world that is mind boggling and impressive, but I see no need whatsoever to put it down to magical super powered beings.

Thanks for sharing!

"Why is everyone so quick to reason God might be petty. Now that is creating God in our own image :)."

Thanks for a well articulated response. Got a busy week so it may be a bit before I get back with you. Just didn't want you to think your post was overlooked.

All the best,

Mudcat

PCE Theology as I see it...

We had an existence with a free will in Sheol before the creation of the physical universe. Here we chose to be able to become holy or to be eternally evil in YHWH's sight. Then the physical universe was created and all sinners were sent to earth.

This theology debunks the need to base Christianity upon the blasphemy of creating us in Adam's sin.

Your post is an example of pure unadulterated truth.

Thanks for making this post respectful--that is so rare from conservative Christians on this topic, at least in my experience.
