This tiny dot.


This is it, this area, and no where else, Jesus - son of the only God walked around.


This dot.


Its really just


A tiny dot on the map.


A tiny,  tiny fraction of a very large world, where untold thousands of people lived, loved, played, cried, and died. In other parts of the world, other Gods were celebrated, some new ones were mad, old ones discarded, in other places, no one knew what was going on here at the time. 

To believe that an actual God would put itself in a single location, during a single moment of history.

To believe that - is something I can not do.

Yet, people do believe that.

It frightens me the power of belief.

Yet, our mind can do wonders with belief, once we see it as such, we can turn it creative and make new stories, ones where we do not pretend they are real, yet the story is just as, if not more - awesome then the myth tales of the Bible or other religions text.

This tiny dot could have been anywhere.

It could have been any religion.

It could have been any idea.

Perhaps, somehow we can be a new dot.

Maybe we can be a tiny dot that starts something better.

I think its worth a try.

If we use logic & reason to do so, perhaps it will prevail on this tiny dot we call home.
