David Merrill your recent post struck note of reminder of a perceived parallel. Many so-called "African-Americans" who have never been to Africa and who might be from America rather than America seem to be stuck in a mindset of the freshly freed slave or kidnapped-child-grown-up-but-doesn't-know-where-he-is-from. "Who will tell the slave he is free?" is a question. But another, "Who will tell his children and their children and their children's children that they are freeborn?" (Until then they can confess against themselves on government forms [i.e. check 'negro' (meaning slave), perhaps some bureaucrats mused back in the 50s--until they figure it out if they ever do)].
I find much of what is being passed off as "Christianity" in the sense of Jesus (Y'shua's/Joshua's) Christ's teachings might have a parallel in the above in that many seem to be caught up in a pre-endued-from-on-high, pre-crucifixion and pre-70-AD reality Mobius loop.
