If you use your belief in god as an excuse to act like a dick, then it's "uncool." If you act like a decent human being while believing in god, then your belief in something that ridiculous is completely irrelevant to me.
I know, just being cool now, that your understanding of Elijah the earlier prophet of the messiah regards it ridiculous for any consideration.:sunny:
Then what happened to you? Your vain master has you slinging muck thinking it uplifts! I don't think you know the difference between grandiosity and grandeur. If you are god in progress, who or what instructs that progress?
One who knows it is right and just to point to a genocidal son murdering prick of a God and correctly name him so. Sure beats being a liar. Regards DL
Everyone has their own beliefs so maybe we should just try and accept that and let it go. And I agree with the Victoria chick above in that
Gee, I guess I could speak my truth as I have experienced it without having to need all these arguments and justifications as well as insults to try and prove "I'm right! You're stupid!" That's "uncool" "fool" and especially "weak sauce" to me. What exactly is supposed to be so fine about your mind that someone would not think it was a waste? I've had a life that has affirmed faith and the metaphysical for me plenty. Guess you have not? (Ahhhh ~ ahahaha!) and really, you don't have to reply. It was a simple question each was invited to answer. Debates to me are what are a "waste of mind" and seem like just a kind of co-mutual mental masturbation for people who would be blessed if they had something better to do than try to hammer down for ALL what can't even be "hammered down" for the best of us as individuals ie just an excuse to trick people into letting one blab a lot and insult people. I got no time ~
We have all the time there is and in this venue our narrations based on our reflections are all there is. No one here makes it any less!
That's at least a thought provoking and interesring exercise of mind....instead of just plain provoking, by comparison. People like things to try and get our head around.
No, besides narrations there is the irrational imagination for therapy appeared to be the appearance for rational intentional Being. I have something for reading you don't have, someone else re-writing intentionally for somewhat more...
Bwaha! Ok, that one taketh a session of holy coffee and sacred weed to contemplate, which soundeth really good right now. Amen!
To read scriptures literally is to never know God. Literalists are idol worshipers of a Godinabook. The point of saying it is to point out to those who believe in that prick as a good God, and loves him, that he is a prick and should not have any decent human following him. Regards DL
Like this otherness of un-appearing phenomena for the self-possiblities for self-fulfilled Intention (?) http://www.greenpeace.org/canada/en/Blog/breaking-news-piracy-charges-against-the-arct/blog/47105/ Let the atheists dream evolution. Let the religious actualize God's intentions.:banghead:
You show a poor moral sense and ignore your duty to society if you do not fight the evil that religions do as we speak. They are presently promoting the killing of gays in Uganda and children as witches in Africa. They are also actively mentally abusing their own children here in the West. For evil to grow all we need do is nothing and that is what you propose. I do hope you develop a social conscience. Regards DL
You may have your point but it is lost on them. Idol worshipers do not worship god but are idol worshipers, so there is no prick! Your effort is like trying to bring truth to illusion to make the illusion real. The truth simply dispels illusions.
So what are you doing about those issues involving witches and killing gays, GreatestIam? Painting with a bigger brush and condemn all christians on an hippieforum instead of actively doing what you preach about seems rather hypocritical. In fact, to me it seems like you are only spreading more evil by saying believing in a certain image of god equals being as bad as those gay bashers in Uganda.
Exactly why I give it and yes, it is lost on the majority of fools. It feels so good though when a fool is tuned from his foolish belief. Regards DL
If you recognize the evils that Christianity is doing, then the bit of evil that you wrongly identify in me just shows your foolish thinking. Regards DL
