But...Dade, I lack time to do justice to this here.<br /><br />But Christian, at least Catholic and Eastern Orthodox - I don't know about Protestantism has NEVER said that the Resurrection was about a re-animated corpse.<br /><br />If this is what you think - ??? - you have a gross parody of the tradition<br /><br />This is why Mary Magedelene could not recognise the resurrected Christ.<br /><br />Nor however was the resurrection about a purely spiritual apparition.<br /><br />I cannot tell you in a comments box why the Resurrection is so vital ...<br /><br />But it is to do with the Resurrection of CREATION itself.<br /><br />The Genesis MYTH holds that the Fall brought death into the world.<br /><br />A profound sustained contemplation of a cosmos corrupted by death ...<br /><br />A cosmos where death was unknown before ...<br /><br />Followed by the beginning of a victory over death ... which again has nothing to do with reanimated corpses ...<br /><br />There is where you must look if you wish to understand the central Mystery - the Great Arcanum - of traditional Christianity (i.e. Catholic and Orthodox - again I cannot speak for Protestantism).Roger Buckhttp://corjesusacratissimum.org/noreply@blogger.com
