(In the nature of this play one might turn a leaf or a rock into a musical instrument and get a unique sound or one might wear costumes or make faces or pretend one is a rock star an athlete or a dancer or singer -- all is allowed).<br /><br /><a href="http://www.taofellowship.org/about-us/founder-ilchi-lee" rel="nofollow">ilchi lee best selling author</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670555733276277896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658400389748240946.post-21416376418080032002010-10-02T13:25:26.424+10:002010-10-02T13:25:26.424+10:00This is not religious syncretism.

What changes is our receptivity towards the Logos.<br /><br />Christ is not only the Logos, but the Telos (end or purpose) and hence all the things mentioned by Fr Damascene only make sense in the light of the Crucified and Exalted Christ.Orthodox Christian Resourceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07788020771749303079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658400389748240946.post-8836949916478433852010-10-02T12:00:20.916+10:002010-10-02T12:00:20.916+10:00Dear Nico,
You clearly do not understand what Fr ...Dear Nico,<br /><br />You clearly do not understand what Fr Damascene is trying to saying.<br /><br />As the Jews had the prophets to show them the way, and the Ancient Greeks had the philosophers, so too the Ancient Chinese had Lao Tzu showing them glimpses of the Truth.<br /><br />You say: 'however christ is clear of his message-- only believe in me the true god that you can be saved.'<br /><br />Fr Damascene is not trying to say that one MUST read the Tao Te Ching to develop a relationship with Christ, and certainly does not say that this idea can substitute the message of Christ.<br /><br />However, at a time when people are utterly confused and are subject to all kinds of ideologies, he shows that it is still possible to find the Truth Who is Jesus Christ.Orthodox Christian Resourceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07788020771749303079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658400389748240946.post-27639599794872376092010-10-02T11:44:25.711+10:002010-10-02T11:44:25.711+10:00this idea is herectical.
