Well, I'm not much for dogmatism.

Jesus set me free all my speculations about the metaphysical. I had started early in High School learning about the Greek philosophies, and their practical applications I was never attracted to mysticism which is integral to Eastern religions. The Christianity that I know is not in the Encyclopedia of World Religions.

By the by, Jesus never spoke of the kingdom of heaven being "all around us" but said "Where two or three of you are gathered together in my Name, there I will be in your midst." (or "among you"). Not sure where in the Bible you are getting your info.

Oh great. Your final paragraph is revealing as to where you get your info... false doctrines gathered from false teachers, false prophets, false apostles, false manuscripts, etc. Again a mixed soup... rather more of a hodgepodge of unusable foodstuffs. I would advise you to sort out one universally adaptable and applicable to real life, instead of the mystical and ethereal mindsets which you say you don't like!

I've told you what I have discovered and some arguments for recognizing God, Jesus, and the Bible as the Way, the Truth and the Life, but I cannot think of any more that I might be able to persuade you with. If you have any questions about God, Jesus, or the Bible, I would be pleased to answer them. However this back and forth has become impractical and, quite plainly, useless. To put it bluntly, whatever you're cooking, doesn't smell edible to me... but thanks for the conversation.
