A person is a reflection of their culture, of what they believe and how they live their lives. A bridge between the past and the future, between time and space and needs to try to keep them in harmony, less they become unbalanced. Not to be aware of the past and give it due consideration in the building of the future can distort the future. Neither is it wise to sacrifice your future because you choose to live in or as if you are in the past. One World One Human Race One Destiny (OWOHROD)

JUST A THOUGHT - ON THE PURPORTED RESURRECTION OF CHRIST: FAKE NEWS, GOOD NEWS, OR TRUE NEWS? THE END!
And yet, if the account of Jesus Christ being risen from the dead and ascending up to Heaven. Is also meant to be an explanation of the process which humans, and, more specifically, Christians, are to follow.
Then, it just makes no sense for his body, his mortal and earthly body, to have disappeared from the Sepulchre.
None whatsoever. After all, if an exception had to be made here, by his body disappearing.
In order to give the impression, clearly a deceptive one, that he has ascended upto Heaven, then how can the faithful Christian really believe that they will also share the same fate as Christ?
When, not only must their bodies rot and return to cosmic dust. But they must also wait until the 'end days', the 'end of time', before they can share the purported glory of being resurrected?
And so, it seems to me, that the Clergy in the Easter Sunday Worship. In fact, all discerning Christians, would be being more prudent to not pose the question - 'Is the news of 'the Resurrection of Jesus Christ 'Fake News or Factual News'?
But rather that of, 'Is the account of the alleged resurrection of Christ, true or false'?
After all, who would deny that factual news, news based on an accurate account of an event which actually occurred, can be perceived as either 'good news' or 'bad news.' While 'good news' is not necessarily 'accurate' or 'truthful' news?
It is a foolish person who would allow him/herself to be comforted by the promise of something which could, or, indeed, would be 'good', if it were true.
But which is patently a deception, a fake promise, with no credible evidence to confirm its supposed authenticity!
As it the case with the account of the Resurrection of Christ from the dead; the only person reported to have achieved such an incredible feat of deception.
Although, as the saying goes, it is not Christ who is the architect of this deception, but the people, historical and current, who have plotted and institutionalised it.
