Jung wrote of the need to get into your own culture before leaping into others. I've always been on the fringes of eastern religion, rejecting Christianity in favour of what i saw as more inclusive beliefs. Now i live in sunvalley, close to Fishhoek on the cape peninsula, cape town. Home to the highest churches per capita anywhere in the world. So i am going to visit all the different flavours, visiting God at his many homes.
started last week with the Baptist, King of Kings Sunvalley. Man why don't they sing. Sermon was on Forgiveness which i took very much to heart as have just gone through divorce, and am very angry with Carol.
Maybe that is why the urge to visit God looking for something lasting or whatever. I'm also dogmatically giving up on dogmatism but more of that later
Don't think the sermon was about forgiving others but God forgiving us through Jesus, still take what you can? The Jesus matyrdom is still quite an impenetrable koan for me.
