God's Creations, by Jason Leigh.
As I have stated on many radio, TV and newspaper interviews when the question arises regarding UFOs and 'other worlds': "I do not place limitations upon the creative powers of God."
And I do not place limitations on God's creative powers as many people apparently do, mostly, the religious fundamentalists . . . (God help them).
We are here on Earth with a mixture of multi-races for a reason--for a grand purpose: it is all in God's GREAT PLAN that we should learn to live together; separate--but equal.
We are ALL human beings--Earthlings--regardless of our separate counties--our differing religions--our differing politics--our differing skin colors--our differing languages.
We must learn to live together--to respect each other--to love one another.
How could we possibly expect an advanced culture of beings from another world to communicate and to share knowledge with us--here on Earth--until we learn that we are all the same here; most certainly in the eyes and desires of God.
This is my personal belief: God made us all different--but really the same--that we may ultimately gain the supreme knowledge mentioned above--and it is a 'supreme' form of knowledge--because we just have not learned how to gain this knowledge, at this writing, at this time in human history. (October, 2000 AD).
So why be surprised, or even doubtful, that other 'beings' from 'other worlds' have and ARE visiting us--studying us--and watching us?
Assuming that 'they' are indeed, no doubt, advanced in every way from us, why would they want to establish themselves with such a warring and cruel world of beings that they, themselves, perhaps, can not even fathom? 'God only knows.
The battle over the age of the earth continues, mostly, once again, within the religious communities throughout the world, based upon the many interruptions within the Bible and the teachings of some of the self-proclaimed, absolutely certain religious leaders, who speak with such adamant assurance, that their parishioners feel compiled to believe, because who better knows than their preachers?
Forget about 'carbon 14' dating in their minds: it is a plot to destroy the meanings of the dates in the Bible--as far as they are concerned. I have asked these people in question--and that is what most believe.
Most will not even speak to the 'caveman' issue of historical fact, so forget all about the dinosaurs . . .
Therefore, who are WE, or, more aptly put, who are these people who can not see beyond their limits they place upon God, based mostly upon what is written within the Bible--which was written by many different people and many deferent times throughout the history of humankind?
In college, while studying Religions of the World, I was a 'student teacher.' I asked my class one day, "Who was King James, and why did he order that the book of Wisdom be withheld from the King James VERSION of the Bible, some 700 years ago?"
No one had an answer--and this was a pretty smart class. We were all straight 'A' students, so I asked them to try to find out all they could about King James.
I won't go into King James any more so, as that would become an entire essay in itself, but suffice it to say that King James was no 'Saintly' man. He had some incredible flaws in his lifetime. So, who was he to make such a demand for a re-write and changing of the sacramentary wording and meanings within the Holy Bible? To subject the people to a form of mass-control? To close their minds from considering 'other things' regarding the origins of this world?
Yes.
A closed-minded population--is a controlled population.
As I have written within this web site: according to the World Directory of Religions, from 1997, there were 25,000 religions on earth--all claiming to have the true answer--all coming from the one true God. If 25,000 religions all have the same God, why then don't they all share the very same beliefs?
Wars are still being fought on this consideration alone. 'Even now . . .
What we need to ponder--and I say 'ponder,' is I don't believe it should overwhelm us in our daily lives, nor should these thoughts detract us from seeking out our spirituality, as to all of God's creations--throughout the universe: are there beings who are so advanced that we would, today, consider them, 'Angelic,' or simply, civilized? And there are other 'beings' out there . . .
When the Spaniards landed in south America--they were held in high esteem by the Indians as 'gods,' and were treated as such. It cost them firstly, their young women, their mountains of gold--and then lastly, their lives. Entire tribes were wiped out without a trace--murdered by these 'gods' from another world . . .
There are hundreds of new forms of life being discovered everyday here on earth, and at the deepest regions of the oceans, there remains thousands of forms of life which are yet to be discovered and named, simply because we can not descend to such great depths . . .
I pray that when 'contact' is openly made--that we can maintain our lives, albeit, enlightened lives--given the knowledge that God's creations are indeed, unlimited--and without the bounds most people place on such creations.
This will be, no doubt, for the betterment of the human race--as a whole--not separate--like 25,000 religions--and the boundaries we call countries.
Personally, I want to live to see an 'undivided' Earth: a world of righteous human beings--casting down the dogma of aloneness within the universe.
God's greatest creation: Life: life springing and blooming from Life.
Where there is Life, . . there is Hope . . .
