This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

I used to think Yesod was the next universe in succession after Briah. And that they would
eventually get an Earth and a Jesus there. In this scenario, the "creations" as galaxies
would make sense. I haven't fully given up this view.

But last summer's discussion swayed my interpretation toward those of others who see Yesod as a
universe above the others, at some higher plane than the manvantaras Banging and Gnabbing below.
Considering the meaning of Yesod in a Kabbalich sense was part of the shift.  In this view it 
makes more sense for the creations to refer to universes, not galaxies.

I mean if there is a super-universe which exists both in the cosmic future and past of Briah
then it has a rather eternal essence. If they are building stuff it wouldn't be for their own
eternal, heavenly space. Surely God doesn't build garages or other additions to heaven.
