One does have to wonder, although most of us don't, where God came from and Who made God. It's also somewhat puzzling why God won't regrow bones. Consider if you will, all the prayers sent heavenward through all the millennia on that subject! (I know I'm preaching to the choir here as I agree with you, Michael.) Scientists, the ones that is who for the most part have PhD, PhD, PhD.... following their last name and in the hard sciences, so physics, chemistry, et al, do not believe in an actual creator so why should we? And besides, when Jesus walked the earth as God in the flesh, why didn't He have the decency to add to the Ten Commandments "Thou Shalt Not Enslave Other Human Beings"? He certainly could have, had He been so inclined because, remember, He had all the power, all the knowledge and all the Love! I could go on and on but will stop here. Thanks for all you do for the food animals on your other substack. You are awesome!

Yes, absolutely. As someone dragged into the Catholic church by a converting parent as an impressionable and sensitive 11-year-old, the idea of sin and its attendant guilt was an impossibly heavy burden.

I loved ex-monk Matthew Fox's book 'Original Blessing'.
