Jesus absolved my sins?

6/11/2015

If you proclaim Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior you will be absolved of all your sins.
Really? No matter what crime I commit against humanity, I'm completely forgiven by saying, even knowing, that Jesus is my Savior? I am to believe that a serial killer, a despot, a genocidal maniac, goes to the same place I'm going because all sin is "erased" by those words. Not a chance. You can't just talk a good game.

Why am I answering your questions?
I'm answering, in part, because it amuses me that my response to that question could be just as cryptic: "Maybe I'm not." That lets me laugh. Truth is, words really do hold power. How language is used to communicate, all the words, phrases, sentences, intrigue me.

It has always been a challenge to be able to communicate my truth on every single level I can think it. I've actually accomplished that twice, in two sentences. The best sentence I've ever written: "pi will id." And the truth: "When you finally understand yourself a particle, you wave."
