You said you want to prove jesus is more then solstices and equinoxes..... Jesus' wisdom/knowledge/philosophy is important and valuable....... the message he put forth through time does have its place....... You understand the potential of the human to act and live in a world of positive and good, your spirit is aligned with this truth and you dont understand why everyone else does not feel the same,,, no need to whore out this philosophy or make ends meet that will not and cannot and should not and dont..... you saw how hard it was for jesus to prove to the world as a individual the truth, no use in beating your self up for failing to do so as well,,,, it is a collective decision the people must make together and individually within their own........ Jesus is more then just a man in the way that Plato and einstein did more with their time and energy then be bums....... No need to deify jesus ,,, because then you and people might start to believe that everyone and everything is not a direct portion/creation of god...
the potential for perfect order, harmony, cooperation, love to exist on earth between humans is actual...... Jesus was the archetype and actual manifestation of platos philosopher king....... perfect rule, of fairness, reason, rational, tempered.......... jesus was the son of man....... he was born,, learned history,, looked at humans from an eternal perspective, did not wish to associate with their un perfected ways,,, the traits that would put forth order and establish harmony were not desired by the people of that time or the people of this time, for the same reason a lion finds no use for grace and compassion in the natural world... because deception, power, and viscousness are things that are rewarded in that realm....... we are in the middle of a long time span of physical, and spiritual evolution..... human kind has been rewarded by the universe for its goodness,,, peace, cooperation, understanding, love, those are things that allows human civilization and family to exist and flourish..... the ideals of jesus would be perfect for ruling an orderly system of complete fairness over the world,,., but in the current time frame of the world now of nations and competition,,, his ideals would be seen as a weakness,,, and so the armies must continue to grown and reason, wisdom, and truth ignored......edit on 16-2-2012 by ImaFungi because: (no reason given)

think Lucifer causing 1/3 of the angels to fall is an end-time prediction and nothing that's already happened. He desires to exalt his throne above the stars of god, but I've seen nothing to indicate that this has already happened.

Wrong. It was Popeye the Sailor cartoon who said "I am what I am...and thats ALL that I am!"
I Am that I Am (Hebrew: אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה, pronounced Ehyeh asher ehyeh [ʔehˈje ʔaˈʃer ʔehˈje]) is a common English translation (JPS among others) of the response God used in the Hebrew Bible when Moses asked for his name (Exodus 3:14). It is one of the most famous verses in the Torah. Hayah means "existed" or "was" in Hebrew; "ehyeh" is the first person singular imperfect form and is usually translated in English Bibles as "I will be" (or "I shall be"), for example, at Exodus 3:12. Ehyeh asher ehyeh is generally interpreted to mean I am that I am, though it can also be translated as "I-shall-be that I-shall-be."[1]

^That's because it doesn't make sense.
It's that historical revisionism we've talked about before, OP. You meander around everywhere and not once do you establish a convincing argument that Moses knew this alleged truth and pulled a big hoax over on everyone. I suppose the crux of your point is your belief that God is really Satan. You're free to believe that, but I hope you aren't surprised when other people don't believe it with you. This is a faith based argument no matter which side you take- but I was hoping you'd have some convincing source material. However, kudos to you for working a Jimmy Hoffa reference in though.

No sorry hate to say it but it was written in The Revelation but was referred to as an earlier event pre-modern man.
The Book of Urantia goes into detail about it but Urantia has been Hoaxed. I suspect that the Fall is detailed by the Mormon Faith
there were a couple of events where human went to visit the creator. The creator was finding more and more favor with humans. Lucifer was getting more and more jealous of man. He finally got pissed and laid down an ultimatum. Creator said Fine you want to be god go to earth and be god. Not in these words though obviously. I speak English, I don't know what they speak
