There was a time stretching over most all of Human history, that
electricity as a scientifically conceivable and verifiable phenomenon, just
waited to be discovered, named, harnessed, applied.
During this time, common religion was not permitted to push the envelope
in mutual appreciation together with the sciences, but was consigned to remain
enveloped in traditions of custom, superstition, ritual and manipulation.
Today we are fortunate to know and embrace science and the blessings of
advanced discovery. Science however,
takes the place of “Old Religion” when it becomes itself enveloped in
self-serving dogma.
If before the Modern Age you’d approached anyone with the idea that a
cable plug placed in a socket would draw an unlimited current of electric
energy, so powerful it could either kill in an instant or power everything in
your domicile – you’d have been avoided, outcast, maybe pilloried or worse.
How many, considering themselves religious or not, agnostic or atheistic
or indifferent – how many now, today, would consider taking the plug of their
own original potential and with sincere childlike interest, trust, devotion or
love, placing that into the socket igniting the current of God’s presence, love
and grace?
Just as electricity can be known without ever being explained or
explainable – so is God’s current just waiting to be discovered.
