>>9659481>represents man as just another animal>because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,”Man is not animal. Man is an ancient word that meant also God for the ancients, they have not separated this. Man is a spiritual being from the very beginning, perfect at the start, but degraded over time. It's the other way around. Mankind's spirit has moved down-wards as superficial technological crutches moved up-wards.
And not everything that walks and talks is automatically "man" by the way. It had a spiritual meaning.
The cosmic Man lives in Mankind itself. We are representations of God. Spiritual beings that live in divine order, in a world that is one divine expression with various divine characters; gods.
Natural things perfectly teach us the divine, and who we are.
Who is /pol/ or Anon? Is it one guy? Is it you? Me? Yes and no, we are part of it. Like a nation, part of One family. And that principle is also within the spiritual. Mankind is Godkind. Where would God's consciousness be if not in Man itself? Is he then a limited "guy" somewhere in space? like the jewish churches made up. No, God is not limited, it has all spiritual-natural (male-female) things within. It is the great spirit of which we are part of, a spiritual eternal "network" so to say.
God-Man is Spirit! the manyness is a oneness, and the oneness is a manyness. These things are inseparable. God is a summary for all divine beings-principles-forces-gods-men.
If THE God would not live in and through Man and its natural world, where would he be? If it's not rooted in the natural world and common sense, then everyone could come up with his artificial scriptural comic book invention. A natural metaphorical teaching can no one deny, everyone can grasp it organically.
Books can be falsified and misinterpreted very easily by low-life "people" with dubious motives. Tales are tools to teach a spiritual lesson, they were not meant for compulsive worship and mental imprisonment.
