Genesis 1:20                                                             Genesis 1:20         ...

For the purists, here's the exact quote:  
". . . and birds that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven."    (The word "firmament"  means "sky.")

Atheism                                                                            Atheism           ...

True atheism is based upon a belief that consciousness is a function of the physical body and the that one's consciousness dies with the death of the body.  (One life on Earth and then nothing.)  Such a belief does not stand up when  tested against the evidence.   (See the Video titled: Down the Rabbit Hole. ***1)   One simply cannot use physical evidence to prove or disprove the existence of something that is not physical.   

Atheism is simply a religious belief that rejects everyone else's religious beliefs.   It's equally as unprovable as the claims made by devout religious believers about the nature and behavior of God.    Atheist claims are based on the same process the the religious true believers use to accept His/Her/It's existence  -- By a Leap Of Faith.`  

 A far healthier way for a self-declared atheist  to state his/her opposition to fundamental Christianity is to say,   "I really don't know what created the universe, but there's one thing I can say with certainty, the fundamentalist Christians have it wrong."

The Bottom line is that the Universe as we know it had/has a source.   We simply do not understand the nature of that source.   We do not know what it is or how it functions.

Two Perspectives          ...

Two Perspectives on God:

The Traditional:   Traditional religion perceives God as a super-powerful, male, human being,  separate from ordinary man, and separate from nature.    He lives in a place above the clouds called heaven.    According to this belief, God can magically alter the laws of the universe at his whim and will, and He will do so for those who manage to follow his confusing and conflicting orders and also worship him correctly.   The God of traditional Christianity, has a long, Biblically recorded, track record of being angry, fickle, vindictive, violent, and a  mass murderer.        Reference-One°        Reference-Two° 

.

In a  21st-Century, Theta-Level, Wedding Ceremony,  God is approached as the infinite, unknown and unknowable  "Universal Source of All Creation."   Humans are considered as aspects of Creator/God and instead of a subservient  role of worship and begging for favors, God is approached with honor, respect, gratitude, and humility.

.

The Missing Pieces:   The traditional  perspective, although still valid in one sense, 
leaves out huge pieces of life.   It leaves out at least a thousand years of advancement in human awareness.   It leaves out what the latest evidence tells us about the origin and nature of man.    It even leaves out the messages in several important passages in the Christian Bible.

Adding to What Is:   Reverend Robert's Theta-Level, 21st-Century, Wedding Ceremony is designed to fill in those missing pieces.   It takes nothing away from one's connection to God.    It merely offers a much bigger vision of Creator/God and applies that vision to the wedding ceremony of those who request it.   And for those who choose this perspective, he can work with them to also apply  this same Technology of Successful Prayer to the start of their married life.

    A Truly Unique Wedding Ceremony
This type of ceremony is simply not available from any other officiant.

Leap Of Faith          ...

    Leap of Faith

A "leap of faith" is a religious term and means to believe something with no proof at all.   If you are talking about “God,” that’s all there is.   Take it or leave it.   There’s nothing else.  
Why do we say that?

Because the transcendent unknown that we refer to with words such as "God" is the ultimate and most profound mystery of life.°.  It is simply impossible to know with provable certainty anything at all about "God."   

Thus, everything said about that transcendent unknown is speculation, guess work, or  pure fantasy.    With absolutely no facts to go on, the  only way to accept any religious belief is by way of "A leap of faith."

Every religion is based upon numerous leaps of faith.   Those who say they  know because their sacred text tells them it's so, have simply moved their primary leap of faith onto a book.    With no proof at all, they declare their book to be God's instruction manual for all human beings.   They also declare their book to be the one and ONLY book God ever wrote or inspired to be written.   

How do they determine which of the numerous sacred books is the one and only sacred text.   Most people base their faith upon the sacred book their parents believed in.   And where did their parents get the wisdom to know which book is "the one and only sacred text?"   From their parents who go it form their parents who got it from their parents, and in some cases, the chain goes all the way back to those who believed the Earth was flat.   Mindless true believers don't seem to question the logic of this determination process nor do they question the antiquated belief system that  it produces.

And the bottom line:   They may be right.   But so may those who believe in the tooth fairy and the Easter bunny.   None of us  knows anything about God with provable certainty.   

Everything religious is based upon one or more leaps of faith --  upon numerous, unprovable assumptions -- upon stories handed down to us for generations -- upon guesses, speculation, wishful thinking --  and upon an inherent need for answers to unanswerable questions.

Here are just a few assumptions / leaps of faith:

Humans are separate from God,
Man is made in the image of God, 
         (What do you suppose that really means?   Imagine the
           ultimate source of all that is stuck in an insignificant puny,
            physical body.)
Human beings are inherently evil,  
My religion is the only true religion, 
Our sacred text is the only sacred Text,
Our sacred text is the literal word God,
My religion has exclusive access to God,  
If I die while murdering those who believe in a
          different religion, I'll have a special place in heaven,
God murdered his son to prove he loves me,  
I'm acting on instructions form God, and so whatever I do is OK,
Only Catholics go to heaven,
Our religious leader is infallible,
Heaven is a place above the clouds.

Here are some additional discussions relative to a  Leaps of Faith:

God's Conception-Magic Act°     

Imagine a God...°     

If you pray, you might add this to your prayers:   "Dear God, protect us from those who think they know the truth and are intending to force their fantasies onto the rest of us."

  ***1   For detailed technical explanation of the technology that  underlies Theta Healing, readers are directed to two videos:  "What the Bleep Do We Know"  and  "Down the Rabbit Hole."   They explain the human relation to the non-physical universe (the world of Spirit) from the scientific perspective with extreme clarity and in great detail.   If you have even the slightest doubt about your relationship to Creator, (Are you inside or outside of God?)  we recommend viewing these two videos.  Both are available at http://www.whatthebleep.com/community/ '  

.

   ***cb   The belief that God and man and nature are intimately interrelated and in perfect alignment is completely supported by the Christian Bible.  Luke 17:21 --  John 10:34, 35 --  Isaiah 41:23 --  Psalms 82:6 --  Matthew 25:40 --  John 14:12 --  Mark 10:27 --  Ecclesiastes 3:19 --  John 8:32 --  Proverbs 14:18 --  John 1:1 --  Matthew 6:5-6 --  Romans 14:14 --  Romans 14:20 --  Genesis 2:7 --  Ecclesiastes 11:5 --  1 Corinthians 2:14 --  et cetera.   For the text of these passages, quoted and expressed in a story format, please see the page titled:  Another look into the Christian Bible.°
