I normally avoid responding to the same person more than once a day -- it looks awfully weird -- but this post is so relatable that I am compelled to do so.

Thank you for sharing about the OOBE and the feminine presence; it is particularly meaningful to me.

I also don't believe in substitutionary atonement. I learned not long ago that there are other theories -- one by an Orthodox theologian that apparently has a lot of scholarship to back it up. I'm not savvy enough to evaluate it, though.

I wish we could talk.
