Peter John,

What you wrote in your reply is what I believed you meant:

You are correct, it is rather ambiguous. I appreciate the correction. What I meant was that I presented a lot of theology, not rejected it! :) Great question about “threw out.” You are correct, it is rather ambiguous. I appreciate the correction.

What I meant was that I presented a lot of theology, not rejected it! :)

I love this. Becoming begotten after being created is a far more comforting thought and process than just being created and there is nothing more! Just wanted to ask you what you meant by the following: "...I threw out a lot of theology there...." Did you mean you have rejected some of the theology you have been brought up with in view of the content of this post, or that you have put forward a lot of theology in this post for us to consider? I think you meant the latter but your phrasing is ambiguous! More a problem of the English language than you personally, John!! John,
