What Makes A God?

I was getting angry because I wanted to tell someone else to shut the hell up already.....and it is not anyone on this thread........and thedope keeps playing splitting hairs with my words......and I am as sincere as i ever was with what I say, and yet, i feel questioned more than anyone else by you thedope, too....so that was getting annoying as well.....

sticks and stones. I never called you a name, thedope.

 

I will remind you for the third time I am pointing at the words not at people. the reason, we don't know the meaning of words. I was making reference to the childhood lesson that we tossed around in the playground to keep ourselves from escalating, sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.

You say splitting hairs with my words. Are they not the same words as mine, being words we both understand?

 

In other threads, I have been questioned by thedope. In fact (and I don't mean to trivialize your feelings right now), this is nothing compared to the go betweens that he and I have had. You would swear that we were sworn enemies. I felt picked on, and I picked back. I'm like anyone else here; I'm learning what is real and what is simply a belief.

 

In reference to post 561

remember I told bedlam that he was bringing in other things to the conversation besides the words being written

 

We are fortunate to have this forum. the world can read this and we can learn from examining each others words and get it straight because we have a record to refer to because with our lack of clarity we forget what we said shortly after it leaves our mouths. the longer we wait to find it the harder it is to recall in exact detail as we talk a lot. If this is not fundamentally meaningful to us all then it is not meaningful in the least.

 

Yes, we are fortunate to have this forum....and thedope, you are annoying, as you should know these things by osmosis without having to have me explain them to you....

or is that oz-mosis.....

 

Knowing by osmosis is the only way

Only then can we speak our mind

That is we don't have to explain it to ourselves if we but listen

 

Speaking of which, someone asked me why I was such a smart ass. I recounted to them how when i was little, I was sat on a stack of encyclopedias as a booster seat at the kitchen table

 

The great fortune is we have an opportunity to figure it out when the world is in critical need of a solution

 

Same here, except I was sat on a stack of Playboy magazines. This answers so many questions.

 

To know what we are talking about examine the meaning of words.

Love is what you are, loving.

What we have been taught is that what we are is lovable or not.

What you are is beyond what anyone can teach you nor can you teach yourself it's dimensions, it's dimensions provided for you in creation.

But what you are you may recognize in him.

It is not a fact of nature that our carefree times seem so few and forever distant, we have naught been taught to be free with our care.

So we find time to be careless in order to have rest.

This creates a split mind.

 

Carefree is full of care for the asking.

Full of care is careful.

We are much too lenient in mind wandering deciding whether to care how much to care or what to care for.

 

I thought about the issue of language in all of this. And I came to the conclusion that the term "unconditional love" implies that there is such a thing as "conditional love." But there is neither. The truth is that there is only love, and that love is maybe nothing more than allowance or acceptance of the quality of others and yourself; or the non-quality of others, as the case may be. But don't get me started on THOSE people!

 

Yes love is what you are loving, passionate. the material we deal with is absorption reflection and polarity which are the properties of matter. To keep from obscuring your ever present capacity for appreciation, don't program the the trip. If you do you become slave to the itinerary.

Consider the lilies they neither toil nor spin but none are finer arrayed

 

For instance the commitment to love forsaking all others is a recipe for disaster. Let your answer be yes or no.

 

Back to language we have a little book of nons and uns. the problem is those things have no substance. What is not is not.

 

there is no condition that prohibits love

 

It is awfully hard to love through a polarized situation.

 

And does that tie in with this: "And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life." Seems what is being said there is that nothing/no one is special.

 

Polarity is direction of spin. It's hard to appreciate when you put a spin on it.
