Rocket,

You do realize that this is a work of fiction..... don't you???  This guy has alot of 'stories', this is a intro so to speak to what appears to be a play that he has written.

Having said this much, it's absolute 'rubbish' and not a particularly good or well told tale either!

If you were familiar with Gnostic philosophy you would have a different take on the story.
This probably need to be moved to Non Bible Study Religion Topics.

I am very familiar with the Gnostic philosophy........... that's why I don't care for this 'take'............. I've read some of the lost books of the Bible, such as the Gospel of Thomas (I think it's fiction!)........ I'm currently reading a book all about them........ and it is a book from a Pro-Gnostic slant ....... most should have been lost BECAUSE they were 'Gnostic'..........

Don't mean to offend you but putting yourself on an even level with God is a REALLY BAD idea!!!!  Looks to me like a punched ticket to a HOT SPOT.........

God Bless and Good Luck!
