(urth) christ, already

[Son of Witz]

Well, see my point about Logos originally meaning ratio. It makes more sense that way.
A ratio is a relationship. If we have a relationship between Man and God ( God: Man or God / Man) then the ratio is that which relates them.  

To take that to an almost ridiculous extreme, look at the second way I wrote that ratio, as a division problem. Now Jesus said he came to bring the sword.  Does anyone know of a christ-figure in these books carrying a sword around with the inscribed quote  "Here is the line of division"

It's pretty funny actually.
