Rev. Shinpu Saimon commented on Richard Russeth's blog post Original Sin"Delusion is the essence of the "original sin". What, therefore is Buddhist's idea of evil? Because in Orthodox Kirisutokyo, man had entered the delusion of evil by their self-directed will for life outside of God. It was the angels of…"

"Hi there!
It's good to get a response. If you believe in the "historical Jesus" or the "real Jesus" or the Gnostic Jesus, I can absolutely see how it would work. But people who believe that way are not "real…"
Angela Harms replied to Angela Harms's discussion What does it mean to be Zen and Christian?"Welcome, David,

Quantum Theory gives credence to the possibility that we may be an integral part of God.
PRE-EXISTING CONSCIOUSNESS + THE OBSERVER EFFECT = OMNISCIENT GOD OR UNIVERSE
Quantum Theory gives credence to the possibility that we may be an integral part of God. The implications of the 'Observer Effect' are profound because, if true, it means that before anything can manifest in the physical universe it must first be observed. There is a delicious irony in all this. Contemporary Western scientific theory postulates that human consciousness is solely a result of the workings of… Continue

Introducing Kung Fu Zen Jesus
With all this talk about books on Zen Christianity (or Christian Zen), I forgot to mention an absolutely fantastic (in the literal sense of the word) work of fiction about, in part, this very subject.
For the last several decades, at least, there has been a debate among religious scholars about whether, during his "lost years," Jesus might have travelled to India to learn about Hinduism and Buddhism. Personally, I don't think that's terribly likely. Still, it's kind of a neat… Continue
