I found God earlier today.
He was halfway down aisle 27,
in the frozen food section,
hiding under the frozen peas,
singing sweetly to Himself.

Was He priced? Discounted? Why was He hiding under the frozen peas? Is God impervious to sub-zero temperatures? What was He singing?

Someone has to ask these difficult questions........!

I'm pretty sure that any god would be (or could make himself be) impervious to sub-zero temperatures.....as for the rest - beats me! 😉

Only if there is a human need for such a god. There are/have been many gods who are affected by external situations (or indeed, internal ones such as old age.) The Norse gods spent a lot of time battling the ice giants.

Looks like spiritual nut has the need for such a god.

I suppose He could always nip to the clothing dept and get a nice pair of gloves and something else to keep the chill out, whilst hiding under the frozen peas...easy.

I'm rather concerned about whatever he was hiding from.

Well, if he's a generally small god,with small enemies, then there might be no need to be concerned. But, thinking for example, of Loki hiding from the Ӕsir, or some of the Greek gods hiding from the wrath of Zeus or Hera, are these really the types that we want rampaging through the aisles of a store?

According to spiritual nut - apparently so....

You don't seem too pleased about that Fleur?

I reckon if He was hiding under the frozen peas, He must've been pretty small, so probably no need to alert the management. It would be easy enough to check under the frozen pizza for God's small enemies...

I see you're point, although I have witness some wrathful types wrestling over (and with) the last turkey at Christmas time...

So, do we think he/she was singing quietly to himself/herself to keep his/her spirits(!) up?

He/she doesn't really sound like the rampaging type! 😉

Spiritual Nut's 'poem' said 'he', quite definitely. This is why I didn’t say s/he. Of course, goddesses may have enemies to hide from, as well. I’ll be very careful picking through the pizzas in future.

Not bothered really....my comment was tongue in cheek....that seems to be the way this thread is going by most it seems to me anyway.,:rolleyes:, and since my comment it seems people have changed to he/she posts for themselves.......:cool:

I suppose really, it should be he/she/it - to cover all eventualities.

Fleur - did you really think that spiritual nut's post could be responded to any other way than tongue-in-cheek? I don't know what was expected - that we would all think 'How profound! We should really have a prolonged and earnest discussion about this.'? 😉

Or He/She/It/Self just in case we want to avoid duality. 😉

Of course I expected it to be responded to tongue in cheek....and so was mine ..and expected it to be percieved in that way..nothing heavy, nothing ulterior..:rolleyes: goodness!! Wish I hadn't bothered now..

It would seem to me the whole reason for spiritual nuts post was to tintiallate a bit of frippery... and then disappearing possibly snickering from the sidelines..

byeee..:cool:

Poetry Circle

Wasn't intended to be a poem,
but it does look that way.

Once knew a Welshman who ran a poetry circle exuding spirituality,
in a remote part of the Wye Valley.

It was Divinely Conceived.

And your point is? (Assuming that there is a point.)

So there's no point in explaining to less spiritually developed beings like me?
Then why post it on a discussion forum?

Tantrum and projection aside,

You and I and God are One, Crowan.

Embrace!

No tantrum. No projection. However, a totally different belief system. And an awareness that you still haven't answered my question.
