Gospel of One; Letters of Aul

Hi Everyone; namaste:

We are now on paragraph 2 of chapter 12 in the First Letter to the Orinthians from the book "Gospel of One; Letters of Aul."  (p 92)

" However, it is different in this life of oneness.  God wants us to use our reasoning power and our intuition to see through the illusions.  For example, why would God, who has everything, require you to sacrifice an animal? That makes no sense.  Or, why would God, who created you and loves you, send you to hell after one lifetime spent in ignorance or for being in the wrong religion?

Commentary: Traditions carry a lot of weight, and people will keep on following some traditions that got started in the dark ages.  People will hold onto superstitious beliefs for a long time.  However, we are free in God to question everything. Pure reasoning can free us from many superstitions and false beliefs, and a well-developed intuitions can help us move deeper into the truths of life.
