to be ignorant to the point of bliss

wouldnt it be so great that you could be convinced that if you are a nice person and follow a certain religion, that you will be garunteed to go to a place called heaven for eternity? i cant fake myself into believing it, but man...i'd be happy all the time. everything i did i wouldnt care cause i know eternity will be neverending pleasure and happiness.



personally, im glad i am who i am and believe what i believe, but if only...oh well.

 

the problem is,theyre ignorant but not blissful in the least bit
they hope only for blissfulness when its too late to enjoy it

be blissful now, dont make yourself miserable feeling shameful & sinful in the hopes for a better never
were here now, so love being here

 

Aren't y'all generalizing a bit?

All you seemed to do, just now, was lower yourself to that same generalized level, by putting down a group of individuals in the same fashion...? Or am I just blind and blissful, myself?

Come to think of it, personally, I've never really felt shameful, nor have I felt blissful. To be honest, the least I've ever felt is soothed and the most I've ever felt is love, but that's also because of my own personal uh.. I don't like the term "morals", to be honest. It's mostly because of my personality, you could say. I'm just like that, wether it pertains to my religion or not. My personality makes me feel guilty enough for little minor things. I wouldn't kill someone, I'd never cheat on any righteous little mama, and I have taken things that people aren't going to really use, need, or care about, too much. Don't think I'd even have the heart to beat my wife/spouse/girlfriend/domesticated house animal/volkswagen/boyfriend?, etc., let alone throw shit out my window when I'm driving... I mean, things like that I don't have to think about.

All it boils down to--some people are just assholes. Don't mind them. I apologize for them. I really shouldn't, you know, but I will... just because I'm a nice guy.

That's the reality of the situation, when it comes to things like this. You really can't always put faith in science and you can't always put science in faith, because it just doesn't work that way. In the notion that matter and energy cannot be created nor destroyed, under the conservation law of matter, all matter and energy would have to be diverted to different locations, dimensions and the like, and basically, recycled.

Which is why... logically, in that sense, I honestly don't think that the traditional aspects of Heaven are always right, nor could I be a nihilist or an atheist, because you'd still believe in things, yet they really wouldn't mean anything... etc. etc. You'd also contradict yourself and have nothing to fall back on... all the time. I don't limit my options. Another motto of mine is to never limit my options.

Honestly, I don't always believe laws of matter would pertain to that, either, but that does say something to me.

People are flawed, beautifully at times, horribly at times... but nobody's right, nobody's wrong-- can we agree?

 

Anybody who really loves the Lord Jesus Christ and knows that the Lord loves them back has a billion reasons to be blissful all the time.

 

Well, that's the thing... you could call it bliss, but I'm a bit more modest about it.

 

Well, obviously....

but if you must boast, boast in the name of the Lord.

 

jesus is my boyfriend



i actually came to the conclusion last night that music is my "religion". i wasnt really happy until i ended up talking about music and jamming with these people at my house at 3:30 am. its spiritual in its own way.

 

Well, it runs the course... basically, I like to see love as God (haha, twistedly, love is also friggin EVOL ), in the most modest and broken down form, being someone who kinda embraces universalism--it's very needed these days, yet... twisted growing up in a family of Lutheran and southern baptist protestants--but as David Crosby says, music is love.

Put on your colors and run come see
Everybody says that music's for free
Take off your clothes and lie in the sun
Everybody says that music's for fun, yeah
