I believe there is no magic, no miracles ---just what people do not understand YET.

Miss Hepburn,

We know your fascination with ACIM......do they use 'miracles' in a tongue in cheek way ? Is there, for example, a way that I can become a genius or change the color of my skin....that is beyond my understanding at this time ?

There is the guy who turned blue because of ingesting colloidal silver.



I think however, he was considered NOT to be a genious. LOL

Since A Course In Miracles was dictated by Jesus for 7 years...I think it's sort of on topic.

One would think it's about learning how to do miracles, right?
Ha! It's a trick! Lolololol..

It's about the miracle that happens in the mind - the mind shift that allows you see in a different way.
And by golly, by Lesson 28 I DID have a huge mind shift....I was stunned ---cuz
it wasn't 'me'...I didn't try to make anything happen ...I just followed the Course, the Workbook of 365 Lessons.
(The first 10, or so, are quite powerful...so powerful they seem stupid...
to the egoic mind, Ha!)

There are other spiritual miracles ---but, that's for another topic.
Thanks for asking.
Me? I think it's a neat miracle to heal people. But ya, don't need the Course for that.



Colloidal silver --Ha! too much of anything is not the best thing. Looks like a brother of Jon Lithgow.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

I do not as we have learned morals while Yahweh remains satanic.

A word of advice from someone much wiser than me.

We are not here to curse the darkness, but to light a candle.

Some were surprise that I could visit the London Bridge during the Pandemic..........

and some have asked how is visiting the London Bridge related to "what does christianity mean to you?"

The answer is:
The more........ you 'dig deeper' into the subject, the more sense it makes.

I would say, not many of the people in Arizona have seen the London Bridge but that should not be an issue. Some Arizonans have not seen the 'mile down hole' in the ground known as the Grand Canyon but when they do go and see it, they can also go and see the L:ondon Bridge in nearby Havasu!
