While typing up my notes I kept thinking about how reading Meher Baba is going to be really interesting.
yes, Baba certainly uses a different perspective. although in my studies i've noticed that eastern belief systems (like zoroastrianism, hinduism, etc.) don't seem to have the same sort of divine vs. human issues that often crop up in christianity.
I feel a little cheated actually, even though I'm not a fan of Ausgustian thought.
the class sounds interesting, although i am certainly rather ignorant of trinity issues. still i would feel cheated as well. i mean, augustine isn't a favorite of mine or anything but it would still feel reductive and off to only read 2 lines.
