Semi Semiosis
Semiotics is the theory of signs but I do not even know what a sign means. Why dothey speak of signs rather than words or pictures. Or thoughts. Or inklings. Signsobfuscate.I think words and urges or inexplicable things.

Instead of semiotics I would just say things like thinking and knowing for a starter.Thinking leads us to awareness of not knowing which is a penumbra of mystery. We
then can wrestle with what actually seems to be.

Semiosis is the theory of signs or perhaps more easily the way we actually thinkand act. Trinity is a doctrine of Christianity that happens also to be semiotic andmay achieve new life via the connection.

Jesus is the second who is related to the first and this is the brute reality within the triadfor Jesus at once interprets and represents the first but bumps up against the harsh

Iconography literally means "image writing", or painting, and comes from the Greek (image)
and (to write). Religious images are used to some extent by all major religions, including
Abrahamic and as an outgrowth of that in Indian faiths. As a symbol of faith these are the results of
centuries of accumulated tradition. Indian iconography start only after the third century AD along
with the iconographic portrayals in Rome and Antioch.
Central to the iconography and hagiography are mudra or gestures with specific meanings. Other
features include the aureola and halo pointing to the divine qualities and attributes are represented
by some symbols which describe the character and importance of the icon drawn. In India it is the
ritual tools such as the dharmachakra, vajra, dadar, phurba, swastika which gives the meaning.
Colors are equally important and Christian Iconographers have developed their own color systems
In India however under the influence of tantra even geometric figures and backgrounds provided
the esoteric meanings, accessible only to initiates. Among the Christians the basic themes go
around the Holy Family and Saints.

Evidently icons were integrated into the Church walls as a means of intensifying the out of thedimension experience. However the church soon came into grips with the reality that, the morematerialistic the symbols and realistic the symbols are, the danger of it being mistaken for realitywas great. When a symbol is taken as the reality we get idol worship. Basically it broke down towhether the veneration of ikons was idolatry or not. Some people were offended by the kissing ofimages and the offering of incense and lighting of candles before them. .As a result for the generalmass of people, icons degenerated into idols. Kissing and worshipping icons as a respect turnedout to be idol worship.
The anthropologist Claude Levy-Bruhl claimed that people in 'primitive' cultures had difficulty in
distinguishing between names and the things to which they referred, regarding such signifiers as as
an intrinsic part of their signifieds. The practice of Voodoo and Magic arise out of such a belief. The
fear of 'graven images' and icons within the Judeo-Christian tradition was because of this
possibility. Hence the biblical injunction "Thou should not make unto thee any graven image, or
any likeness of anything that is in the earth beneath, or that in the water under the earth, thou shalt
not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them" [Exodus 20:4-5].
The reason given for such a mandate was:

Deu 4:15-19 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of form on the day that
Jehovah spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire. Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a
graven image in the form of any figure, the likeness of male or female, the likeness of any beast that is on the
earth, the likeness of any winged bird that flieth in the heavens, the likeness of anything that creepeth on the
ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth; and lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven,
and when thou seest the sun and the moon and the stars, even all the host of heaven, thou be drawn away and
worship them, and serve them, which Jehovah thy God hath allotted unto all the peoples under the whole heaven.
ye saw no form; only ye hearda voice. indicates that the essential mode of revelation was through the Word.
Hence until the coming of Jesus uttered word and written word were the basic mode of communication between
man and God. However that changed with the incarnation where The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.
God did put on a human face. The Word became fleshGod robed Himself in the garment of
humanity. Jesus Christ became the icon of the invisible God. (Col 115). So now we can depict God
as a human which he revealed through Jesus. Because of this Jesus was portrayed in icons in the ensuing
church period. In order to avoid the idol formation this was essentially restricted to the two dimensional drawing
so the images were not graven images or idols. Evangelist Luke is said to have painted an icon
presenting the Virgin Mary holding the Child Jesus and an icon of the Archangel Michael in
Alexandria, is said to have been painted by Apostle Luke.

However graven forms began to appear soon. As a result in the early 8th century two groups evolved,
one group called ikonoclasts (ikon breakers), and ikonodules (ikon makers). The argument over
ikons had been going on in the church since then. The ikonoclasts claimed that ikons were being
worshiped, while the ikonodules argued that it was only veneration of ikons and a type of 'salute' of
the original depicted in the ikon. The actual Greek word for this veneration is proskynesis, and it the
same veneration that was given to the Emperor. It involved humble reverence and bowing, but it
was not worship. It is the same explanation that the Catholic Church give to the veneration of idolsof Saints and Holy Family. Evidently the mistaken identity of symbols as realities are more prone in
the case of three dimensional representations.
COPTIC ICONS
THEIR HISTORY AND SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE
By Dr. Zakaria Wahba
With the spread of icons in the centuries after the Emperor Constantine, Christians began to use
icons in ways that were never intended, becoming more concerned with the art itself rather than as
a tool for prayer or Christian instruction. Icons were never meant to be worshiped or venerated as
something holy in themselves. The reverence shown to an icon must be done with the
understanding that it is not the icon or artwork itself we are respecting, but rather the person or
event it portrays. An icon is meant to be a window into the spiritual world, used to help us
contemplate spiritual matters or to put us into a prayerful frame of mind, as a reminder of events in
the Bible, the life of Christ and the Saints, but never as an object of worship.
Therefore, my dearly beloved, shun, keep clear away from and avoid by fl ight if need be, any
sort of idolatry, of loving or venerating anything more than God .
1 Cor 10:14.
What Is Idolatry?
Here is the technical definition of idolatry: Idolatry is worshiping, serving, pledging allegiance to,
doing acts of obeisance to, paying homage to, forming alliances with, making covenants with,
seeking power from, or in any other way exalting any supernatural being other than God. The
supernatural beings refer to angels, cherubim, seraphim, Satan, principalities, powers, deities,
territorial spirits, goddesses, and demonic beings on any other level. Calling miscellaneous sins
"idolatry" is dangerous because it diverts attention from the real thing.

The Emperor Konstantine the Fifth put together a council of his supporters and pushed through an
edict in 730 which banned images. During this conflict the two most prominent theologians who
stood to defend the use of icons in the Church were St. John of Damascus (675-749 A.D.) and St.
Theodore of Studios (759-826 A.D.) at the 7th Ecumenical Council of the Eastern Orthodox Church
in 787 A.D. The fight which became ugly until finaly it ended in 843 AD with the coming back of
icons. This assertion of icons and use of icons was based on the Gospel witness to the
incarnation of God in Jesus Christ as a restoration of all human beings to the divine imageproclaimed in the Genesis account of creation. Thus God indeed made himself present in the
material realm and representation of those forms are necessary for proclamation of truth. As a
means communication icons do play a great role. Even today we use drawings and pictures to
teach our children the truth in Sunday School. Look at any Sunday School curriculum you will be
surprised at the art and craft as part of the process of teaching. The Iconoclast had a point in that
the realism can lead to idol worship even when we emphasize that we should avoid it.
...within Christianity itself there had always existed a 'puritan' outlook, which condemned icons
because it saw in all images a latent idolatry...The final victory of the Holy Images in 843 is known
as 'the Triumph of Orthodoxy'..One of the distinctive features of Orthodoxy is the place which it
assigns to icons. An Orthodox church today is filled with them...An Orthodox prostrates himself
before these icons, he kisses them and burns candles in front of them...Because icons are only
symbols, Orthodox do not worship them, but reverence or venerate them... icons form a part of HolyTradition...The Iconoclasts, by repudiating all representations of God, failed to take to full account
the Incarnation" (Ware T. The Orthodox Church. Penguin Books, London, 1997, pp. 31-33).
All through history this struggle carried on. Even when these visible symbolism of form and shape
was removed, others went to the other extreme of idolization of rituals like Confessing with your
mouth, immersion baptism, baptism reverence to the Bible Book. True, there is no visiblegraven image, or even a picture. But the symbolism has taken over the reality. Quoting the biblical
verses to support these will not really make any difference. These confusions of mistaking symbols
for reality has always been with the church. The written word kills, It is the Spirit that gives life.
We need to distinguish between symbols and realities. Unless we are able to go beyond the three
dimensional material Kingdom (Malkuth) and even beyond the mental to the higher realms of
understanding icons will remain as idols. These are not materially graven images, but graven in
mind and even in spirit. These attitudes of icon and idol making has produced a large variety of
Christian Communities. Each has a different idol and vouches that it is not an idol and does not
really replace Jesus. When the extreme comes we begin to realize that what started as a
reasonable way of expression in symbolism has now become a heresy and something that leads
us away from the Person of Jesus. But then this is inherent in every symbols and sacrament. But
more it is permanent and object based, there is more chance of it becoming an idol. Any sacrament

can thus become an idol, even when it is a legitimate icon imparting grace and redemption.
During the middle ages when ritualism led to idolism, there arose the Reformation Movement
(1500s) and later the Holiness Movement. They in general removed the material aspects of
symbols and replaced them with non-material aspects. Later Holiness Movement and even the
Pentecostals, Evangelicals and the Charismatics developed their own semiotic symbols which were
non-material. While the Quaker Movement took up on themselves silence, in most cases
expressions based on music, dance, speaking in tongues, laughing, total immersion water baptism
and even slaying in spirit and total silence became powerful symbols of Christian movement . By
repetition and order these became the ritual and thereby a new form of liturgy.

MORE: Universalism Denomination Affirmation
Universalism Rules
Abba's Way. Thought. Why Universalism is the Only Way
Forward. Universalism is an Existing Denomination. It is
Also a Saving Concept, an Idea the World Needs to
Embrace, a Doable Personal Affirmation
Stephen C. Rose, Yahoo! Contributor Network
Sep 7, 2010 "Contribute content like this. Start Here."
Universalism is the name of a denomination which evolved from the theological thinking of James
Relly who passed it on to John Murray who brought it to America. In essence, universalism saw that
because all were mired in evil there could only be a
universal salvation. That simplifies, but not unduly.
Today I think most people see we are a spectrum
and that we contain everything under the sun.
Which means we are all saved by a sort of grace
when we get up in the morning and do no harm.
Many have, including us on some days, no such
protections. But universalism would say that in
each of us there is a higher self or a spark or some
element that is real that impels us to at least think
about the "evil" or wrong we have done. If is from regret over this that Abba can be found within and
the process of growth can begin.
If you think this is claptrap, consider the corporate nature of wrong and evil. We have no idea the
effects we have, more and more. Why? Because of the floating and utterly unpredictable power of
words. I could write something on this page that would ruin the day of someone living in a far off
province halfway around the world. We pay the taxes that kill the civilians. The good we would do, we
don't. The evil we would not, we do.
Everything is tending to the universal. Everything is tending towardAbba's Way.Nothing complex. Assimple as Jesus made it before the theologians took control.
Now don't you think this evokes a terrible reaction, particularly among religionists, who believe with
all their heart and soul that the world is somehow divided into the saved and the damned, that rights
are not equal, that elitism is OK and that, when all else fails, Darwin kicks in and the weak perish?
Besides, good will has done little to lower the UNICEF figures on woman and child mortality year by
year.
So how can universalism be the only way ahead? The ideal we must and will I believe embrace.
Because ultimately we are in control. There is no devil out there. There is no external divinity that willstay the oil spill we create. There is no big hand in the sky to redirect Katrina. If we build weakness,
weakness will not withstand the winds.
