Thanks for sharing, Anna.
I thought it was a great presentation, and felt others should see it. Thanks for stopping by, Dora.
There’s a special place in the Hereafter for “the poor in spirit” [Christ’s words, I believe], which definitely includes those corporealized souls who’d felt helpless enough to dangerously self-medicate.
I find that Christ’s fundamental nature and teachings were/are notably different from the unambiguously fire-and-brimstone angry God of Judaism and Islam (not to mention the Biblical Old Testament’s Almighty).
Followers of Islam and Judaism generally believe that Jesus did exist but was not a divine being. After all, how could any divine being most profoundly wash his disciples’ feet as did Jesus, the act clearly revealing that he took corporeal form to serve; and become a hopeful example of the humility of the Creator by joining humankind in our miseries, joys and everything in between?! Indeed, how could any divine being NOT be a conqueror — far less allow himself to be publicly stripped naked, severely beaten and murdered in such a belittling manner?!
Jesus was/is meant to show to people that there really was/is hope for the many — especially for young people living in today’s physical, mental and spiritual turmoil — seeing hopelessness in a fire-and-brimstone angry-God-condemnation creator requiring literal pain-filled penance/payment for Man’s sinful thus corrupted behavior. Fundamentally, though, that definitely includes resurrection.
