Wildly Sensual YAHWEH

A Wildly Sensual YAHWEH is Volume 0 of The Naked Path of Prophet series: The Bible is a very complicated book. It can inspire love and friendship. It can breed hate and genocide.As we approach a text like Genesis alone, we must come to know that there are competing voices there, different storycrafters and editors-through-the-centuries, all with very different points of view.Listen carefully to Genesis as scholars do and you'll come to know a distinctive gathering of storycrafting voices offering a similar, freeing viewpoint. Scholars used to call that 'voice' the Yahwist, or J for short. Today we have a better sense that it's many people telling stories in the same vein over the span of a few centuries. I call this gathering 'the band of YAH'...with their very queer way of understanding YAHWEH and YAHWEH's ecstatic people, the prophets, who have very different maps of reality than the priests and kings and authority-minded with their hierarchical and fascist mindsets.Greater than ever, as wars continue to break out and as we humans seem so intent on destroying our own chances for survival on Earth, we have dire need to disentangle fascist-motivations from love-motivations in every religion...indeed in every interaction. May we have the courage to respond with love...perhaps motivated by an ecstatic experience, YAHWEH.
