Been reading more Bill Hicks and found the following quotation from his LAST stand up routine before his untimely death at 32 ... he definitely speaks a truth here:... it's supposed to be where your ego dissovles and you realize the true nature of our reality, which is mind, and that we literally are one and there's no such thing as death and our bodies are an illusion, and God's eternal love is unconditional and we've never left it, other than the dream of the Fall from Grace, which is JUST AN ILLUSIONARY DREAM, and never has God been unloving to us, and we can wake up and remeber God's eternal, unconditional love. ...
and then like an exclamation on his profession of faith:
"I guess I have to do the only think I can do: acceptance and forgiveness. It's the only tools that you've got left."
Too bad the Leadership of the Church is so worried about maintaining control of power, wealth and what they preceive as prestige, that they dare not listen to voices like Hicks and the TRUTH they speak ... maintain the status quo is the priority in Churches today, when by faith we are called to share the Good News, which by its nature is unconditional ...
Maybe one day we'll see ...
