The Cornerstone

[Species8472]

Ideas were meant to be built upon. Transcendence. Break the perceptual loops. Alter your oppinions. Be hypocritical. Destroy your belief. Rebuild it aknew. Destroy the temple of your body and rebuild the mind in 3 days. Transfiguration. no longer sheperd, no longer man--but a transfigured being of light. Transcendence. Ascension. A(symbology).
Jesus said, Show me the stone that the builders rejected. It is the head of the corner. Show me another cornerstone if you can

Christ the Living Stone4 ¶ To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
5 ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
6 Wherefore also it is contained in the Scripture,
Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious:and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. 7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient,
the stone which the builders disallowed,the same is made the head of the corner, 8 and a stone of stumbling,
and a rock of offense, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

The Parable of the Wicked Husbandmen1 And he began to speak unto them by parables. A certain man planted a vineyard, and set a hedge about it, and digged a place for the winevat, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and went into a far country.
2 And at the season he sent to the husbandmen a servant, that he might receive from the husbandmen of the fruit of the vineyard.
3 And they caught him, and beat him, and sent him away empty.
4 And again he sent unto them another servant; and at him they cast stones, and wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully handled.
5 And again he sent another; and him they killed, and many others; beating some, and killing some.
6 Having yet therefore one son, his well-beloved, he sent him also last unto them, saying, They will reverence my son.
7 But those husbandmen said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and the inheritance shall be ours.
8 And they took him, and killed him, and cast him out of the vineyard.
9 What shall therefore the lord of the vineyard do? he will come and destroy the husbandmen, and will give the vineyard unto others.
10 And have ye not read this Scripture;
The stone which the builders rejectedis become the head of the corner:11 this was the Lord's doing,
and it is marvelous in our eyes?12 ¶ And they sought to lay hold on him, but feared the people; for they knew that he had spoken the parable against them: and they left him, and went their way.

Jesus Denounces the Scribes38 ¶ And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, which love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the market places,
39 and the chief seats in the synagogues, and the uppermost rooms at feasts:
40 which devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers: these shall receive greater damnation.

Can priests be considered scribes. Do they not do the same as_this_; therefore receive greater damnation.

I'm trying to figure out what all this has to do with the United Nations and/or being a green, and I'm coming up empty.

Any disinterested parties have any thoughts on this?

Sorry, I'm too disinterested.
