I say with all respect, I cannot figure out what you are saying here.
I agree with all except where you get to your comment on A Course In Miracles. You will not receive the grace of God through the Course In Miracles.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Who can tell me what A Course In Miracles is all about?

In the nutshell, it is a doctrine designed to rid us of the guilt trap:
The Course combines Freudian and Jungian psychology with traditional Christian faith. The Course representation of the 'Holy Spirit' bears some similarities with the Jungian concept of the collective unconscious, and also with the Freudian representation of the subconscious mind in that all three concepts point to the striking subconscious commonalities of the human psyche that may come from a common source. The Course also acknowledges the human tendency to develop defense mechanisms, such as denial/projection and attack/defend, to keep from the awareness of that which is feared.

I guess my response is just a poor play on words. The more I looked at the words "A course on Miracles" the more I became bothered by it. As Christians we understand the miracle of our salvation and each of our lives is somewhat a course on miracles. I need to stay on topic and to the point. Sorry.

sure, no sin no guilt.
no sin, no need for salvation, no need for Jesus.
According to Oprah, we are all Jesus. And the Jesus we know was a great guy, but then again, so are you.
