“The neuro-biology of playing a musical instrument is completely scientific, but it’s also an absolute miracle, that you’re taking basically a calcium bucket filled with salt-water that’s run by a weak electrical signal, and you’re using it to move your flesh around in order to manipulate an instrument which disturbs air molecules between you and the listener, and then the listener’s ears picks up those disturbed air molecules which generates a weak electrical signal to their calcium bucket full of salt water, and they feel a feeling. That’s miraculous, and that’s where I live.” FeelsFeelingsRunningMovingOrderWaterAirPicksWeakEarsMiracleAbsolutesInstrumentsFilledMusicalFleshBiologySaltListenersSignalsManipulateMiraculousDisturbedMoleculesElectricalBucketsMusical InstrumentsCalciumSalt Water Author:Bob Brozman
“What I notice, as a historian reading stories about so-called nature miracles, the walking on the water, or the miraculous catch of fishes, they're done especially for the insiders, for the disciples. Usually healings and exorcisms are done for people along the road, as it were. Jesus doesn't come on the water to save the fishing fleet from Capernaum, he comes on the water to save the disciples. It's a parable, dummy, it's a parable, don't you get it? If the leadership of the church takes off in a boat without Jesus, it will sink, it will get nowhere.” PeopleIfsDoneStoriesReadingJesusWaterChurchHealingWalkingMiracleFishesBoatFishingHistorianDiscipleMiraculousParablesInsidersDummyExorcismReading Stories Author:John Dominic Crossan
