Interesting observation. And true, I believe.

I confess oneness was never my goal. What was? I think it was having a deeper experience of Christ, but maybe I'm just flattering myself. The real thing, I believe, was that Bethel experience I had way back when. It was awesome and terrible and life-changing. "Indiana" alluded to it in an above post.

That's really the whole thing, for me. That experience. Can't let it go.
