Nice work.<BR/>I think to be a real prophet you have to listen with your inner ears to Gods holy spirit, and to learn not to mix what you hear with too much of your own.

The classical image of the sybilian (sp.?) oracle receiving speech from the gods in the form of gibberish which was then translated into Mark Lamoureuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12907078718133120295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6471186.post-1120919891530114482005-07-09T15:38:00.000+01:002005-07-09T15:38:00.000+01:00Glass, or-- as Elizabeth Bishop reminds me-- ising...Glass, or-- as Elizabeth Bishop reminds me-- isinglass?

As for seeing through a glass darkly, well Paul certainly wanted us to believe that. The Church can only see it any other way. Still I'm not arguing that we can know it all. Some capital T truth. Just that we know more than we think we do. Intuition.
