I think the problem here, Judson, is that these "revelations" are really
subjective. You accept them, so He has revealed himself progressively to
YOU; I don't accept them, He has never made any personal contact or attempt
to discuss this with ME, (and an omnipotent, omniscient, perfect Being would
have no trouble doing so with every single person on the planet if He wanted
to...), so He has not progressively revealed Himself to ME.

Therefore, I believe it is incorrect to say He has revealed Himself to "us".

If we must decipher the tangle of contradictory illogical Scriptures which
are the only evidence we have today, and come by the "faith" so attained,
then that's a pretty poor game (I, for one, won't play it...), when our
mortal souls are supposedly at stake.

It's time He gave us another clue, yet, despite entreaties from both the
faithful and the unGodly, nothing seems to be forthcoming...

For some of us, we can only draw the obvious conclusion...

Pete.
