I would also like to point out that I have never judged you for being a Christian. I have my views on religion but I keep those opinions separate from the people that follow any religion. My opinion of you is based on conversations that we've had. If what you have to say is your interpretation of the bible then so be it. I have many devout Christians in my life that I love dearly that I get along with very well. My problem is with religion. Not it's followers as a whole. I don't judge a book by its cover.
I was going to say did someone judge you here for being Christian? If so, where you Deanstar? I have not seen it......I don't judge. People can be who they want to be and do what they want to do...It is only when they try to enforce whatever they think or believe on me is where I kick my heels up and protest...... What is the dating the cute secretary have to do with this conversation, anyway....?....are you judging other people's relationships , too. I couldn't give two shits what married people do with each other...It is THEIR business....I give 2 shits about my own life. I am not here to play jury, judge and exucutioner to anyone until they start with me..... Rubes...you know I like you whatever tatoos you have....that is not what makes or breaks or makes anyone It is what inside that counts. I have seen some very beautiful tatoos in my day, and alot of my real life friends have them. I also like the way you express yourself, Ruby.
Fools rush in I guess. I used to abstain from any kind of adornment for myself as I wanted to be taken for what I was yet shiny things are attractive wherever we perceive them and they light up our life. Of late though I have expanded my methods of communication to look the part. If you saw me and noticed the external transformation you would say it figures.
This is a lie. I've been wanting to have a fine relation with you for a while now, and it never happened.
I am wholly fine in my relations with you, I feel safe if not understood at times. What is your beef with me, vegetarian?
its ok. you are not defensive anymore. Friendliness is all that matters. Maybe you dont need a punch in the face. You reminded me of meditation of new agers, or buddhists and they are often completely brainwashed into all sorts of philosophical menanderings. expecially hinduism and the nothingness philosophy. You are not christian strickly. But I trust in whatever process is happening and hopefully Jesus Christ has choosen you as much as me. Just pray for the best. I'm not trying to be hostile or win anything.
I am not a vegetarian. I like meat. I don't know whether you are guided by good or evil. You probably don't know either.
And here we have perfect communication. If you've noticed what I've relayed recently defending ourselves limits our capacity to be free with our care. If god created you then that is our defense. We can then express ourselves as we really care to without fear of loosing face or stature.
you are really a bundle of confusion and almost fooled me for a second that you were good. it is not perfect communication this thread has turned into a nightmare that I cant get away from you keep replying without a conclusion.
My history on this subject is recorded in these forums. I know I am created in love or at least passion. I am devoted to living and I find it preferable to live peacefully. Good and evil do not enter into my thinking. I use my powers of perception to distinguish one thing from another to tell whether a thing is the same or different and to identify what a thing is for. I was taught this by asking god for the indwelling of the holy spirit who teaches all things and I receive as I was promised. I've made the point of saying that I am an uneducated man and all that I talk about comes from my seeking god and his kingdom only. Consider a saying, make the tree good and it's fruit good or make the tree no good for eating. Food is the kind of things we nourish ourselves with and this includes what we call our just verdicts. If you become indignant or see a lack of wholesome dignity then you are feeding yourself unwholesome consumables.
It is the light that attracts you. It is the thinking I'm good that calms you, it is the thinking i'm bad that in turn confuses you. You can go in peace whenever you want.
It is my own folly that must try and fix a mess that you keep adding to. And endless thought process of philosophical yoda talk. But the thread is about tattoos originally.

If you become indignant or see a lack of wholesome dignity then you are feeding yourself unwholesome consumables. In other words we know them by their fruit, The fruit of life is known by it's taste and the only taste we have is our own. We know the other guy only through our taste we can only judge him accordingly. If we recognize him as he is created then we know our taste varies but gods true creation is truly given.
It is still about tattoos and I paid attention to your concerns for which you have said dishearten you about them.
A thread about tattoos has suddenly become a raging religious, political, and social debate. WHY the living FUCK did I not have the notion to come see how it was doing earlier? This is just ridiculous! Carry on
