Exodus 1

Stranger in a Strange Land***

   From what I remember, Exodus is mostly about Moses. 

                       "...the angel of the LORD appeared unto Moses in a flame 

                       of fire out of the midst of a bush: & he looked, &, behold, 

                       the bush burned with fire, & the bush was not consumed."

   For a while now, I've suspected & have half-been-holding my breath for organized religion to come up with the notion that they can increase attendance (& hence revenue) by putting a special FX burning bush behind the altar, or something similar.  I don't see what's keeping them from duping the mouth-breathers*** with updated, more believable versions of their old crying pictures of Saints or a rod that turns into a snake or water that separates into opposing waterfalls or whatnot. 

    It'd be so easy. & so profitable.

                    "& Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, 

                & shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; 

                & they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?

                & God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: & he said, Thus shalt thou say 

                unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you."

***Message to Christians: The author of this blog is not anti-Christian, nor is he anti-Christianity. In fact, he is quite a fan of Jesus Christ & what he was about. In fact, he tries to live his life like Jesus said to live. However, the author of this blog has a most serious objection to the way in which organized followers of Jesus Christ have behaved over the centuries. 

For one example of a book better than the Bible at explaining how to live like Jesus, see Robert Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land.
