User ID: 3136346  Australia10/10/2013 04:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here's a novel thought (from someone who made into the PhD program in Studies in Religion back in the day) - instead of trawling through YouTube trash and online BS articles, why not start with reading the world renowned authorities on the subject - Mircea Eliade and Joseph Campbell. You know read actual BOOKS that are highly respected in the academic world and go from there. Who knows you might even decide to put together your own you tube vid based on the in depth knowledge and understanding you have gleaned by reading! Have fun, it's a great topic. |

Quoting: Shamanama You know read actual BOOKS that are highly respected in the academic world and go from there. Who knows you might even decide to put together your own you tube vid based on the in depth knowledge and understanding you have gleaned by reading! Have fun, it's a great topic. thankyou. yes I do believe you have a valid point. I have less than a week to post material to a the school website for peer review and then I need to formulate a discussion question or two in regards to the material. I do have a term paper to write and ill be doing extensive research on the protestant reformation, which I'm excited to read up on. but for now, my discussion topic information is to be conceptual. I can just look up a video of the holy catholic mass and then a small tribal ritual with symbols and then form a question around those, but I sense there is much more to be looked into in regards to symbolism. [link to www.thewarningsecondcoming.com] Rise now and accept My Seal, the Seal of the Living God. Recite this Crusade Prayer (33) to acknowledge My Seal and accept it with love, joy and gratitude. O my God, my Loving Father, I accept with love and gratitude Your Divine Seal of Protection. Your Divinity encompasses my body and soul for eternity. I bow in humble thanksgiving and offer my deep love and loyalty to You my Beloved Father. I beg You to protect me and my loved ones with this special Seal and I pledge my life to Your service forever and ever. I love You Dear Father. I console You in these times Dear Father. I offer You the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son In atonement for the sins of the world and for the salvation of all Your children. Amen. Go, My children and do not fear. Trust in Me, Your beloved Father, who lovingly created each of you. I know every single soul, every part of you is known to Me. Not one of you is loved less than the other. Because of this I do not want to lose one soul. Not one. Please continue to pray My Divine Mercy Chaplet every day. One day, you will understand why this purification is needed. Your Loving Father In Heaven |
