jeff god is nothing. god is everything. god is our own concept of self and perfection mixed together and personified. it is our need to justify our existence, and explain our future. it is the embodiment of human frailty and weakness. therefore, i feel nothing but hatred of the concept whose mere presence keeps us tied down... 980905

mike One of Nietszche's fundamental contentions was that traditional values (represented
primarily by Christianity) had lost their power in the lives of individuals. He expressed
this in his proclamation “God is dead.” He was convinced that traditional values
represented aslave morality,” a morality created by weak and resentful individuals who
encouraged such behavior as gentleness and kindness because the behavior served their
interests. Nietzsche claimed that new values could be created to replace the traditional
ones, and his discussion of the possibility led to his concept of the overman or superman.
......Nietzsche was wrong. God is not dead, but many are killing his name. One must
make an attempt to experience God before one is sure God does not exist. i have
experienced God's power through prayer, praise and in solitude. I know God exists.

Quintessensual My God

If you believe in some god, fine. I mean all of you or anyone, not just those few I have special affection for and (thank god) have the same for me, although I certainly have affection for all who take precious time to blathe even when it's so dark so much of the day and so cold; but I digress. My hope for you then is that you are not like many - probably almost all - people who do the same. They use belief in a god as a crutch for insecurity in facing the reality that humans cannot know everything, to supply a substitute (in the form of some person like a rabbi, priest, minister, or shaman) for thinking for themselves on difficult questions, or, worst of all, to abdicate personal responsibility to participate in solving the real problems of the world, their countries, their regions, their cities, and their neighborhoods, not to mention their families and their children. I wish everybody would simply accept that we can never know everything and that the unknown is not a reasonable cause for insecurity but an opportunity to have eureka experiences or learn from those who have. So I wish everyone, rather than wasting money on a god who surely doesn't need the money, would support science and other forms of learning for learning's sake, so that we can know as much as possible and provide as sound as possible a basis for effectively addressing real problems that afflict our planet and all its people. I wish everyone would be secure enough to think for herself or himself, then surely war and genocide would rarely occur. I wish everybody would believe, as President Kennedy said, "On this Earth, God's work must truly be our own." And act on that belief rather than waste money on and sit in "places of worship" other than personal living spaces, neighborhood centers, the open sea, or the open air.

On that note, I'm going to worship this afternoon. Anyone want to come cross-country skiing with me to make sure the eagles' nests have not been disturbed?

Why did you repay me with this?
What did I do to deserve this?
Why would God have let this happen
Is he really there?
You would think he’d be more real
More caring then this
Guess he isn’t what I thought
I hate men

Wasting energy
I can’t deal with it anymore
If people only cared
We kill each other
Use each other
Since when did God stop working?
Someone wake him up

Not selfish, just worried
He lost control once and gave up
Don’t give up so easily
Why won’t he listen
Can’t force it…but can’t pretend

Now that I’m lost
Now that I’m trapped
How do I get back to where I was before?
Why am I the one...
I get teased and used
I just need to be safe
I need to find a way back to the past
I need to get to him and let him know

Maybe something happened to him
Maybe he is as lost as I am
I can’t fight on my own
I am too weak
I canbe everything to everyone
Why do they take advantage and think that
Never gonna find a way to him
Never gonna change things
I give up

"Before" does not outstrip Him,
"after" does not interrupt Him
"of" does not vie with Him for precedence
"from" does not accord with Him
"to" does not join with Him

"when" does not stop Him
"if" does not consult with Him

"behind" does not limit Him
"previous" does not display Him
"after" does not cause Him to pass away
"all" does not unite Him
"is" does not bring Him into being
"is not" does not deprive Him from Being.
Concealment does not veil Him
His pre-existence preceded time,
His being preceded non-being,
His eternity preceded limit.
If thou sayest 'when', His existing has outstripped time;
If thou sayest 'before', before is after Him;
If thou sayest 'he', 'h' and 'e' are His creation;
If thou sayest 'how', His essence is veiled from description;
If thou sayest 'where', His being preceded space;
If thou sayest 'ipseity' (ma huwa),
His ipseity (huwiwah) is apart from things. Other than He cannot
be qualified by two (opposite) qualities at
one time; yet With Him they do not create opposition.
He is hidden in His manifestation, manifest in His concealing.
He is outward and inward,
near and far; and in this respect He is
removed beyond the resemblance of creation.
He acts without contact,
instructs without meeting,
guides without pointing.
Desires do not conflict with Him,
thoughts do not mingle with Him:
His essence is without qualification,
His action without effort.

vega The believer accepts the existence of god on faith.
Then, does not the non believer deny the existence of god on a similar faith ? At some point or another the non believer has to accept a fundamental premise upon empirical knoweledge which he or she has faith, or some hazy concept akin to faith in.

How can one faith be more valid than another ?

For this reason I can niether deny nor accept the existence of god.
000304

miniver One "faith" is based on the unquestioning acceptance of the stale dogma of an antiquated time; one is based on an evolved, evolving system of logical reasoning and deduction. (Inevitably, this were the same, the -only- human system of reasoning that once nurtured the young, plausible-at-that-state-of-knowledge would-be dogma before it grew so unavoidably, and, to some, unnoticably, outdated and had those now justifiably "nonbelieving" puppma's of its own).

The difference is in levels of absurdity -- between "prove to me that fluorescent purple, magical dancing gophers don't grow on trees" and "give me any remotely logical, potentially supportable reason to even -approach- the possibility that fluorescent purple, magical-whatever gophers might grow on trees before I embarass the intelligent few of our species by taking you seriously enough to expend the effort it takes to disbelieve".

No faith "need" be more "valid", nor more "right" or "wrong". But, as certainly as humanity seeks to impose order on his life, the nearly-standardized (though, of course, neither by any claim of mine perfect, universal, nor even, arguably, objective) system that our wee minds have developed by which to impose that order is one of certain humanly-universal standards/fundamental hypotheses of the logic of neural networking. That is, so far as I have yet reasoned, either belief can be more or less logical by some measure of our present and/or accumulative logical standings.

From here, it all grows suddenly and quite gelatinously political, and I prefer to very subtly, somehow, stop blathering.

souljah 'God'-or any other name you would like to use-is the cunning invention of man, and we cover that invention, by incese, by rituals, by various forms of beliefs, dogmas, separating man as catholics, hindus, moslems, parsis, buddhists, all the clever cunning structure invented by man. Man, having invented it, is caught in it. Without understanding the present world, the world he lives in-the world of his misery, the world of his confusion, sorrow, anxiety, despair, and the agony of existence, the complete loneliness, the sence of utter futility of life-without understandig all that, the mere multiplication of ideas, however satisfactory, has no value at all. 000403
...
souljah Your mind must be completely free,and only then can you see what is true-not by acceptanceof some superstition, nor by reading of the so-call sacred books, nor by following some guru. Only when you have this freedom,this real freedom from external influencesas well as from your own desires and longings so that your mind is verey clear-only then is it possible to find out what GOD is. But if you merly sit down and speculate, than your guess is as good as your guru's and equally illusory. 000403
...
dicole Is detachment from one's longings and desires, and I would guess all other subjective threads of existence, really possible ?
It seems to me that finding out this whole god business in the state you prescribe would be futile. How can i discover truth out of myself from a cold third person stance? God cannot be found in a world independent of self.

Of course, all of this presupposes the possibility of a god, which I find more and more amusing.....
000403
...
souljah The mind is the known-the known being that wich has been experienced. With that measure, we try to know the unknown. But the known can obviously never know the unknown; It can know only what it has experienced, what it has been taught, what it has gathered. Can the mind see the trueth of its own incapacity to know the unknown? Surely if I see very clearly that my mind can not know the unknown, there is absolute quietness. If I feel like I can capture the unkown with the known, I make a lot of noise; I talk, I reject, I choose, I try to find a way to it. But if the mind relizes its own absolute incapacity to know the unknown, if it perceives that it connot take a single step towards the unknown, then what happens? The mind becomes utterly silent. It is not in despair; it is no longer seeking anything. 000403

Winged Serpent (the imago emerges) i've said it before
i'll say it again.
But it appears i must say it differently now.

These things undermine the faith i had as a child:

* if heaven is perfect, then why did some of the angels rebel? surely, if all was in complete harmony, if it truly was the best of all possible worlds, free will would dictate acceptance of the status quo. G-d demands absolutes from us that he himself cannot live up to.

* the creation and continued existence of Hell undermines the notion of a loving and all-forgiving deity, especially when one compares the span of a human lifetime to the concept of eternity. The devil in his infinite hubris would still have to acknowledge that if G-d is still the higher power and the biblical apocalypse is both inevitable and a forgone conclusion, then he would have no other recourse than to repent his transgressions. yet he does not. So what gives?

* If god is both omniscient and omnipotent, he knows what we will be guilty of before we are guilty of it. Scripture says that if we are aware of the wrongs that another intends to commit but take no action against it, than we are as guilty as the transgressors themselves. "in what i have done and in what i have failed to do." G-d is/was/will be aware of our sins ong before we ever think to commit them, but lets us go on unabataed anyway.

* If, as i have stated before, the biblical apocalypse is both inevitable and a foregone conclusion, then it stands to reason that G-d created the world with the intention of destroying it when he no longer felt like dealing with it (not that he's dealt directly with any of it since the period of history covered in the earliest parts of the new testament. Knowing this, i cannot give my love, faith or acceptance to somone who has been plotting the end of the world from the moment he created it. Prophecy is the window to the predestined, predestination negates free will. If i am evil, if i do wrong, it is the will and the fault of him that set me in motion. Good requires evil to define itself against. G-d created the devil, meaning that the devil himself is the work of G-d, "quod era demonstratum" (meaning roughly "effectively demonstrating") that evil is the work of G-d.

I neither believe nor disbelieve, this is the nature of paradox. Either stance necessitates acceptance of a set of absolutes that will, under close scrutiny, contradict themselves.

claudia god is whatever. god is our excuse to live. god is there so that we can try to make sense of our sad little lives. we create a god because we can't possibly imagine that what we are is it. because if we were were truly the essence of exitstence, that would be very pathetic. because that means there is something more. and that means we would have to care about our lives. but we don't. and if there is a god, i hope he's got a sense of humour.

in religion class, the textbook tried to describe god. 'god is everything. god is in everything and everyone. god came from himself. god exists completely out of time and space. god is inconditional love. god is love better than any human. god will be waiting for you with open arms. god is three parts yet complete on it's own. god just wants you to be happy. all god wants is for you to be like him'.....and the whole time i was reading it, i was just thinking 'who in the world would want that???'

"Seeking Him I reached the mosque.
But all I found there were vain discussions
on sacraments and ceremonials.

I was advised to go visit the temple.
There I found
only idols being worshipped
and gongs being sounded."

Lao Tzu (literally "old man") we join spokes together in a wheel, but it is the center hole that makes the wagon move.

We shape clay into a pot, but it is the emptiness inside that makes it useful.

We hammer wood for a house, but it is the inner space that makes it livable.

We work with being, but non-being is what we use.

ubliss GOD's Power

Power (P) is Effort (E) over Time (T)
P = E/T

Time (T) is Money (M)
T = M

Money (M) can buy material (m)

M = m

Thus, P = E/m or
Power is Effort over material.

Given that our (including GOd ???)maximum Effort is limited,
it concluded that
to gain more Power beyond the maximum Effort is to reduce the material needs.

GOD's Power is Limitless or Inifinity,
thus m must be equal to 0 or

ZERO material.

Sound Interesting, But ABSTRACT!!!.

Subject: GOD's Power Version 1.1

Power (P) is Effort (E) over Time (T)
P = E/T

Time (T) is Money (M)
T = M

Money (M) can buy material (m)
M = m

Thus, P = E/M or E/m
i.e.
Power is Effort over Money or
Power is Effort over material.

Given that Total Effort we can deliver or contribute in our Life Time is limited as we can't solve all our past, present and future problems and/or issues,

it means that

the only WAY to gain more Power beyond our Total Effort is to reduce the Money or Material needs.

If we accept and believe that

1. GOD can't solve or help us to solve all our problems/ issues; and all the problems/ issues in our Universe; and

2. GOD's Power is Limitlessness or Infinity,

then M & m must both be equal to ZERO.

GOD has ZERO Money and ZERO material by the above Scientific Reasoning.

Sound LOGICAL, But ABSTRACT!!!.

Colfax Those of you "scientific" fellows out there really should chalk up on your knowledge of the historical accuracy and scientific accuaracy contained in the Bible. It's fairly amazing that the Bible had over fourty different authors write books of it over hundreds of years in about three different languages, and they didn't contradict eachother. So you can say there is no God if you'd like, but your arguments about the Bible being written by a bunch of old men falls pretty flat.

The only certain thing I can point out is that no amount of blathering, debating, ranting or raving here will bring closure to the idea or truth behind God.
It seems that the majority of blatheres are the kind of people that are willing to blame the world if they get a nosebleed, or stub their toe. The basic attitude seems to be "If there is a God, why did he make my life so rotten."
I can only speak for myself when I say that I know exactly why my life has been rotten... and the damndest thing is that it's been that way specifically when I do the exact opposites of the values and morals taught in the Bible. You should give it a read sometime. I'm not sure if they sell cliff notes.

guitar_freak god is a way people can get on with their lives. If one believes that something greater than themselves is watching over them, they feel comforted. I believe it is bullshit however. That is just my opinion and everyone needs to find there own way to fill the gap in your heart. By god, by music, by love. Whatever works for you. I think that telling a person they are wrong about what they believe isn't fair either. If they believe it, it is true for them. Even if they are delusional ar whatever. I just couldn't believe in an evil god. I mean god sends people to eternal damnation if you don't believe that he sent his son to be slaughtered on a cross for you. evil evil. He killed his own son. fine jesus choose his fate. Either way he is selfish. If you don't believe in ME you are going to suffer the rest of your eternal life!!! However, if you do believe in me, you will live a happy and blissful existance for eternity. How dumb is that? I personally want to just die and be done with it and that is exactly what I believe will happen. But is up to everyone to make their own decision, but to be open and understanding to everyone else. 001124

Quiggz Who knows? I sure as heck don't, and I have a fair amount of dislike for people who think they're absolutely right. I'm very willing to hear people out on the subject, and discuss it politely, but I don't like having another belief forced on me. I guess we'll all find out at some point or another? God is all that can be, might be, could be, is was, will be, and any other tense you can think of. Maybe. Or maybe He (Or She, or It) is not there at all. Maybe it doesn't matter. And infinite number of maybes, with an infinite number of truths in each. Maybe. I don't happen to believe in a Supreme Being. However, I DO think we should stop killing each other over something we don't know about. Would you kill someone who doesn't believe in Black Holes, or who had a different idea about what a Theoretical Particle is? I'm not normally one to say who is right and who is wrong, but I think most of us can agree that violence in the name of a Supreme Being, who is supposed to be kind and forgiving, according to most world religeons, is not a good thing for any of the parties involved. The powers of the world used their God as their sword, instead of the shield their God was supposed to be. They killed in the name of the one who was supposed to save them. How is that right? How could The Almighty Is let that happen? Who knows? God moves in mysterious ways, according to some.

how much worse could it have been?
how much did He prevent from
happening?

though i wish i could make it
go away,

to turn to
even if nobody else is there.

Colleen Life, the one question that no one can answer. Death, The single concept in this world that everyone just happens to be terrified of. So we hear a story of this so called god and put all of our energy into this one belief so that we dont have to be scared anymore. Instead of being afraid, we are living a lie. People cannot cope with the fact that some questions just dont have answers. Society is based on fear. If children dont go to school, they are afraid that they will be in trouble with their parents, people dont go around killing each other, in fear that they are going to be arrested, just like the people who go to church, in fear that they will be, "damned to hell," if they dont, as if they HAVE to believe in this concept, because if they dont, they will suffer some sort of terrible fate, oh, and it doesnt hurt to go anyway, even if its all a bunch of bullshit, she can just show up and it will all be fine. That way we dont have to face things on our own, we can just be content knowing that we have some sort of scape goat at all times. 010120

JizNOLA Okay people, that's it. I will now explain it to you all. First, my disclaimer: I mean in no way to offend or put down anyone with different or opposing beliefs. Good for you all. However, here's how it is. God is not there. This is not because of the existence of the slightest or greatest evils that make life a less than perfect experience. It is because people who have trouble coping with the imperfections in life have to give themselves something to make them feel better about the whole thing. Example: someone's mother is killed, it's okay, she's in a better place now and her killer will suffer an eternity in hell. Wow, that someone feels better now. It is also a comfort to those who would rather have a quick and easy answer to the infinite amount of "why" and "how" questions that clutter our brains about life. Example: how did the world begin? God made it. why are we here? to serve God so we can go to heaven. Heaven. Another comforting thought. It would really suck if, after we die, we just lay six feet under to be eaten by worms. But according to God, that's okay because people do not exist solely in their physical bodies, it's their souls that matter and their souls go to heaven. Well, good, now we won't have to think about becoming some icky, decaying matter under ground. My basic point is this: for all problems that people have to deal with and all answers we cannot find, making God the solution makes everyone feel all warm and content inside. I also want to add that Christianity, or mostly any religion for that matter, is not a bad thing. They teach their followers to be kind to others and to practice good morality. No problem there. The problem is that the followers rely on their religion to explain things for which they, as of yet, have no answer. They believe in order to avoid having to accept the possibility that problems are problems, there isn't always a bright side and that there are some things beyond our understanding. Isn't that just terrifying! That's all I had to say. Become your on comfort and find your own answers, even if the answer is that there is none. Thank you. 010126

Dafremen I guess there is no denying God, if God is the Creator. For as surely as you and everything around you came from all that is...you will return there one day. Perhaps next time around the material that is you will come back as something like that chair you sit on, or the carpet under your feet. A fitting existence for someone so unappreciative of the glorious fate that is being human. So wrapped up in your deluesions of suffering that you fail to marvel at that which created you, this big beautiful creation machine that is the universe. "And WHO made the universe?" You ask. You arrogant little nothing. Who CARES?!! Aren't you glad it's here? If it weren't, what question would you ask then? Guess you wouldn't, would you? 010219
...
just some mean bitch excuse me, but who the fuck do you think you're calling an arogant little nothing? you seem to be defending the Christian, God-fearing side here. yeah, that doesn't sound like the kind of thing a good Christian should be saying. do not judge others. oh, and by the way, fuck you. 010219
...
dB Chill people! It's only god for christs sake (is that a contradiction?). Look at it this way:

If I take a lamp, and shine it toward the wall, a bright spot will appear on the wall. The lamp is our search for truth, for understanding.
Too often we assume that the light on the wall is god. But the light is not the goal of the search; it is the result of the search. The more intense the search, the brighter the light on the wall, the brighter the light on the wall, the greater the sense of revelation upon seeing it.
Similarly, someone who does not search, who does not bring a lantern with him, sees nothing.
What we perceive as god, is the by-product of our SEARCH for god. It may simply be an appreciation of the light, pure and unblemished, not understanding that it comes from us.
Sometimes we stand in front of the light and assume that we are the centre of the universe, god looks astonishingly like we do. Or we turn to look at our shadow, and assume that all is darkness.
If we allow ourselves to get in the way, we defeat the purpose, which is to use the light to illuminate the wall in all its beauty and all it's flaws. And in so doing better understand the world around us.
010219
...
kx21 The Truth or

PCA from GOD's follower / believer?

And Benefit of Doubt from little nothing...

One of the beauties of U is that the questions & the search of U's Creator, GOD will probably never stop...
Even someone, probably the best Scientist, is able to prove that GOD is Real.

Given that Change is the only constant in U. And thus, GOD is subject to changes.... And new and more questions arise such as

Is GOD really Real?

How Real is Real?

Which version of GOD is Real?

If GOD is the only constant in the Universe(s). Is GOD still alive?

etc..
010219
...
kx21 And more and more questions arise.

What is the meaning of alive?

Are You alive?

Is Sun alive?

Is stone alive?

Is GOD as alive as Stone, Sun, You or Everything else, in particular, little nothing?

And thus, In Search of GOD continue...
...
010219

M_Theory as stated in

Dafremen Look at the arrogant so and so pop off with his head so far up his own ass that he thinks he sees God up there.
Christianity? What is THAT? God...Creation? Yes YOU and your arrogance. Look at you assuming something about me...so used to putting the little Christians in their places aren't you? Well deny your very existence, THEN you can deny what I have to say. Deny your life, then deny your death. Deny that everything that you are made of came from this creation that you are in , then deny that it will return to that same place. Ha! Christianity is a solace for those who need it. Like he said, his flock. A light to guide the sheep. Fortunately some of us AREN'T sheep and don't need the guidance of Christaintity to see how truly insignificant we are. There are some of us who fortunately have the common sense and the humility to look beyond ourselves to that which cannot be denied...our own pitiful existence, YOURS and mine. Soooo angry...the anger of the self-centered little wanna be God. So sure of your enemy (the Christians right?) and yet so wrong. It's not the Christians that make you small in comparison, it is the very universe you exist in, that puts you in pathetic scale. Deal with that. You and I are nothing, little pink dibbles of dots in the grand scheme of things and THERE YOU are so MAD at the Christians...when they are nothing more than other little pink nothings like you and I. Look around you and be in awe of this creation, whether you believe in god or not...live in awe...for it's all you have...then its is gone. It'd better be enough.

P.S. I'm NOT a Christian. Try a church if you'd like to bitch one out.
010219
...
kx21 Assume that the follwoing is True:-

I Think therefore I Exist.

What is the feaisible solution for both I Exist and I Think GOD exists?


What is the probability that I Exist and I Think GOD exists?
010219
...
just some mean bitch You are assuming the worst of your audience. Consider the possibility that we do appreciate our humanity, however insignificant as you may see it. If you think WE are arrogant, well I think YOU are ignorant. You think because someone is inquisitive about the origins of the universe and everything therein that they aren't appreciative of the very fact that it's there? No, you've got it all wrong - it's called a healthy thirst for knowledge. Seems to me that you are willing to take life at face value. I apologize if that is not enough for the rest of us, but some people enjoy pondering the impossible questions in life, enjoy thinking for its own sake. I happen to agree that Christianity is a solace for those who need it; for the sheep in his flock are only simple sheep unwilling or unable to guide themselves through their own lives. However, that the universe is so vast and limitless and that its population is so immense does not justify everyone in it having to see themselves as insignificant nothings, at least not to me. I believe that I am a significant and important part of the world, as should you, as should everyone. Your existence does not have to be, and should not be, "pitiful" as you put it. But that really depends on how you choose to spend it.
P.S. I'll bitch out whomever I want, Christian or otherwise.

Dafremen This THIRST for knowledge that you claim to have. What is it that you hope to gain by such knowledge? How does knowing the nature of galaxies and nebula help you to improve your human condition ONE iota? It doesn't of course. Instead it makes you and those whose example you follow like the man who looks far and wide for riches, while his home falls into neglect and is ransacked by thieves. In the end, you come back with nothing, and you come back to nothing. Did I say not to appreciate our human existence? Not at all. Once again you make assumptions, for your attitude won't let you read the words, it would rather you paraphrase and has you drawing your own conclusions on my way of seeing life and the human existence.

No I didn't say that being human was inconsequential to humans. On the contrary, it is all we have. Rather being human does NOT make us gods that can look at the world around us and the universe as if they are bugs under the microscope, inanimate objects to be dissected and studied. They are where we come from, and at the very least deserving of some appreciation other than the cold calculating stare of a dispassionate psuedo-god. I love life and appreciate it more than you could EVER know. I REALIZE how close the stuff that is ME came to being the stuff that is this keyboard I type on, or the carpet under my feet. I am truly grateful, and HUMBLED by the knowledge that but for an accident of fate, the stuff that makes up me could have been in a rock buried 20 feet underground for 3,000 years. DO I ASSUME THE WORST OF MY AUDIENCE? You assume that YOU and others were my intended audience. No I blather, for me...not for you. It's a cleansing experience that I cherish and keep for ME.

Dafremen Examine the following two sentences logically:


Both of these statements are false.
God exists.



After close examination it will be revealed that this DOES indeed prove that "God exists." must be true.
010221
...
dB "I Refuse to prove that I exist," (says god) "for proof denies faith and without faith I am nothing". Ok, doesn't that make it seem like god is a product of faith? Just an anthropomorphic personification brought about by mans instinctive tendency to put faces to names? Without faith he is nothing, so therefore god is faith. Kill faith, Kill god. 010221
...
Dafremen Ok first off, let me clarify something, when I speak the word GOD I mean Creator, period. Not some moral and ethical entity which will judge my every action in Christian terms. So for the "open-minded" of you who still have this close-minded view of what GOD means, there's another point of view to consider.

I believe that to kill faith can no more kill god than killing yourself will kill your neighbor. (Unless of course you use a large bomb to kill yourself!) To believe that somehow something we DO or DO NOT do will somehow negate god is absolutely ridiculous to me, although if that's how someone chooses to see it, go for it. It's like an ant thinking that if he stops believing that there are such things as huge human feet in the universe, they will somehow magically vanish from existence. Like ostriches sticking their heads in the sand as if that will suddenly make the world go away. What's wrong with these ideas? These perspectives? Well there's not necessarily something WRONG with them, they are opinions after all and everyone's entitled to one. Where I believe they're flawed is in their assertion that somehow WE (or you) are the center of your universe and that this somehow empowers you to perform these amazing feats. It's when you start to realize that you are in fact nothing more than a small part of a greater whole that you realize how truly silly the self-centric perspective is. The universe, our creator, couldn't give a rat's ass whether you believe in it or not. Not anymore than I or someone else cares whether or not you can prove that I exist. Unimportant, irrelevant, and to even entertain the notion is, as I said before, certainly each man's personal prerogative, but also an incredible exercise in foolishness. This being the case, even if you DO speak of God in terms of some omniscient, omnipotent invisible being, the point is the same. Your believing or not believing in such a being (if such an entity exists) will no more negate the existence of that God than snapping your fingers will make you a millionaire. But hey, for a million bucks, (or a God-less world) I guess it's worth the effort huh?

dB Ok, so let us take the Ant analogy (this is not an arument by the way, debate is probably a better word, so anyone that gets offended, I apologise). Ok the Ant thing. Let's look at it this way; A human is to an ant, what god would be to us. Only thing is, an ant is a physical entity, as are humans. We know both to exist, so for an ant to get squashed when stepped on is pretty much the only course of action that it can take. However, the flaw in the comparison is that we have no proof that god exists, and if he did he would not be a physical entitiy. My point is that it would be possible to create an image of god in the minds of people, mass hallicination I suppose. If a certain number of people belive that teh tooth fairy exists, and if they all think the same way about her characteristics, the way she talks, and looks and maybe what kind of toothpaste she uses. Then to those people she would exist. Same thing with god/creator. There is a general agreement about how god looks (big white beard, angry wise old man thing kind of thing. I've seen statues in the Cathedral where I used to be a sound tech). So to those who believe that, he does indeed exist. To someone hearing their belifs, while not beliveing himself, it seems strange.
Also, rather than people believeing that they are the center of their own universes, sure maybe some people do this, but they are generally of an unstable nature. As stated in my previous post, it seems that after close obervation that believers would be more enclined to think they are the center of the U. If god is the center of their U, then why MUST he take the form of a man? "Sometimes we stand in front of the light and believe we are the center of the universe, god looks astonisingly like we do. Or we turn to look at our shadows, and believe that all is darkness.
If we allow ourselves to get in the way, we defeat the purpose, which is to use the light to illuminate the wall in all its beauty and all it's flaws. And in so doing better understand the world around us."
How can someone who explores all possibilities - or at least as many as possible- be the center of anything when their attention is so divided?
Now it's your turn Dafremen (a term from Dune perhaps?). I'd be interested to hear your thoughts.

Dafremen I think first off, that you are right, this IS a debate, but once again I'll hace to interject by saying that I think the whole thing is gut splittingly silly, but HERE WE GO!

Ok what strikes me about your parapgraph and ahalf is that in the WHOLE thing we decided to throw out my alternate vision of what GOD is. MY god is VERY real extremely well documented in human history and in fact surrounds us every day of our endlessly short lives. We STILL insist on talking of this human fabricated entity, who may or may not exist and that's fine. The ability to prove the physical presence of such and entity certainly is NOT a requirement for it's existence anymore than the lack of a photograph of a black hole makes it subject to being winked out of existence by our lack of faith in it's existence. We can waste our time trying to make things go away or come into being by just imagining that they don't or do exist all that we want. The fact remains that just as your foot doesn't give a flying fig about whether or not that ant believes in it. Neither does the ant give a handjob to a blind priest whether you believe in it. We just don't HAVE that ability. It's just so absolutely silly to even THINK that our belief systems can wink things (ANY things) in or out of existence. If they exist, they exist, if they don't they may someday, or they may not, but one things for certain, our faith in their existence will not change the truth of their actual manifestation one bit. I can't stress my feeling on this enough...I think it's probably as absurd a notion as we humans have. That and the one about nothing around us REALLY existing. Good golly miss molly, nice mental exercise, fun philosophy, but absolutely useless.

I would also like to point out something that just popped into my brain. Many people are apt to disregard some of the the works and words of Jesus of Nazareth as poppy-cock. That's a matter of personal opinion, but the reason I bring it up is this: When we talk about believing in the tooth fairy making the tooth fairy real, or not believing in God (the entity) making such a God dry up and blow away, we sound so much like Jesus talking about moving mountains and the like, that you have to ask yourself...are you as much of non-secular type as you actually THINK you are? Your words make you sound like Jesus preaching about faith.

That's my 2 cents worth. The universe is the creator, it exists, it created you...make it go away...I DARE you.
010223
...
Dafremen One final word that I forgot to add to that blather:

If a bunch of people believe in the tooth fairy and a bunch of people don't, here is exactly what you have:

If the tooth fairy DOESN'T exist, you have a bunch of idiots running around believing in something that doesn't exist. A tooth fairy popping out of thin air does not result from such belief.

If the tooth fairy exists. you have a bunch of ignorant mo-foze who have been denying the existence of a REAL entity, which ALSO does not mean that this tooth fairy entity will just say "Ohh gee...noone believes in me anymore because they can never see me...guess I'll stop existing now."

In either event, belief and/or faith have NOTHING to do with existence.

Now if someone were to FABRICATE the tooth fairy as a result of their belief in the toothh fairy, that would be interesting, however it would jsut go to show that they didn't really believe that there WAS a tooth fairy, just that there SHOULD be a tooth fairy. Once again though...just believing ISN'T going to make it happen. Neither is disbelief. Sorry...wish it worked that way. I don't believe it does.

dB Dafremen! Damn you. I only read the first book when I was 11. I just got a Dune "thing" going in the last couple of weeks. My only copy of the book is pretty much dead, all fallen apart and stuff. So I ordered three copies online. and the rest of the books (except the B Herbert ones). And the original movie. Then the wide screen version. Then the three hour version. Now I'm gettting the mini series and some of the movie posters are getting block-mounted as we speak. Don't knwo why though. It's been a couple of years since the last time I read it. I dunno. Crazy. Costing me alot of money as well.

Oh, right, sorry, the debate thing. Well, let's have a look at what you have left out... right. Pretty much all of what you have stated is a pretty good argument. Covered the angles pretty well (even if a bit delayed). One thing though. To someone who believes in the tooth fairy, say, some imaginative 6 year old. If you asked the kid if the tooth fairy existed, the kid would be adiment that she does (sanity seems to be something that develops just after puberty with most humans). To that six year old the tooth fairy exists just as much as his/her tricycle exists. While not being a physical entity. That belief does not bring about the physical prescence of the tooth fairy, but to this particular six year old it does. The same can be applied to god.

There is always the misrepresentation theory. In medievil times, the church was all-powerful. It had the power to kill, create war, famine, anything. Even dictate birth to some extent. The people being very superstitious would believe anything. If someone in power within the church said "God wishes that this person be burned at the stake, because she is a witch", rather than god he would be talkign about someone higher up the chain of command, but the people would believe that it was god itself that had made that command.
Belief can be a good thing. It can bring people together for a common cause or anything. But if you change the parameters, change belief into fear, as was done, you create slaves. The way that children are brought up in the ways of the church is actually a form of torture. You make them so scared that they follow what you tell them. Some people would call it scare tactics, but it goes deeper than that. I know this is going off the subject alot, but in my mind it raises the question, was the church ever about god in the first place? Or was it just a bunch of smart people playing on the fears of others to get themselves in a position of power?

If I can't attack the belief system, I'll attack the source. So, it would seem that if you do the proper research, you'll find that the churches only started to FORCE belief/fear on the public back in about... 550 AD, to about 800 AD (I think, havn't got the material here). That system was passed from generation to generation. It merely ment that those who got into power in the church could appoint their friends and all develop this farce to get people to follow them, and in a sence worship them and give them money. These days it's much better because the original intent was lost. These days even thouse in power in the church think that they are doing the right thing. Well some of them, there are some who would use their power over people to their own means like in the old times, but the church in the end has cinvinced itself of the fallacy, and within another 500 years will be forgotten entirely.
Screw the belif system, can't get my head around that, but if you stick to the doings of man, it's simplicity in itself.

I suppose you have read Lord of the Rings DaFremen(?)

Dafremen You answered your own question DB, yea I got that! :)

As for what men will do to other men, that's an entirely different subject. It's always been better to sh*t on people than to get sh*t on yourself. It's always better to rule than to be ruled. Does his belief in the tooth fairy make the tooth fairy real to the 6 year old? No, it makes his BELIEF in the reality of the tooth fairy real, but once again it STILL doesn't change the nature of the tooth fairy one iota. However, I suppose that since the young boy would do things that he might not OTHERWISE do, such as putting the tooth under his pillow, you could say that his BELIEF in the tooth fairy has very real manifestations. Remember, I don't believe that self-centric perspectives are healthy. I think that when we start to step outside of ourselves and project our perspective on the rest of creation, we do ourselves a huge disservice. That little boy, and his parents, or that church follower and his church were completely responsible for any physical manifestations that they would attribute to God. The church followers believed it, thus giving the power to the church to make up MORE acts or decisions of God. None of this had ANY bearing on the existence or lack thereof of a God entity, period.

Human beings are silly creatures. We always have been. We have all of this intellect and what do we waste it on? Domination, control and power struggle. Then, to make matters worse, we somehow delude ourselves into thinking that we are "distorting" the fabric of reality with our twisted little mind games. Tsk tsk tsk. This is sort of what I meant by "pathetic" at the beginning of the god blather. All of our scheming and believing and faith don't even begin to DENT the nature of reality. The universe goes on about its wonderful job of creation as if nothing has happened. It will long after we're gone.

dB Fremen, I give you the victory. You got a good brain there and you know how to use it. :-)
People do tend to use their intellects for some strange purposes, if they use them at all. Did you know that the average reading age is dropping exponentially every year. This is disturbing. I received a couple of orders from the states a couple of weeks ago. One was from a kid who was sixteen, and the other was from a guy who owned his own advertising firm. After putting the two envelopes side by side I noticed that the handwriting was almost the saame kind of scrawl that would be created by an 8 year old. Both had spelled "Wonderland" wrong as well. (My shop is called Wonderland Records).
Maybe our efforts are wasted in this running around in circles talking about the existance of god or whatever. Maybe we should put our efforts into wondering why people are becoming more stupid.

I didn't think that the first couple of chapters were dry as such, just a slow build-up. Although the intro on the first page was a little lose. The bit that is just about the hag coming up the path. There could have been a decent hook in there to draw the reader into the book, rather than give them time to think "what else am I supposed to be doing right now? have I got time for this?".
To be quite honest I have never read Silmarillion. I have owned a copy for a few years now, but I just never get motivated enough to read it, but it'll get done one day. New Zeland has been LOTR central the last couple of years, what with the movie and everything. Jackson even hired part of the garden where my band room is for some establishing shots. LOTR is EVERYWHERE over here, and has kinda put me off it for a while, but that'll go when the movies come out. I'm expecting them to be the highlight of the NZ movie industry.
Anyway, enough banter. I'll catch up with ya later.

WORLD SCRIPTURE: Traces of God's Existence

The Existence of God is a Tenet of Faith alone and cannot be demonstrated
Reasons in Proof of the Existence of God

The Existence of God cannot be proved, being a Self-evident Truth.

Scientific proofs in the modern sense of the word are valid only for things perceptible to the senses since it is only on such things that scientific instruments of investigation can be used. To desire a scientific proof of God would be equivalent to lowering God to the level of beings of our world, and we would therefore be mistaken methodologically in regard to what God is. Science must recognize its limits and it's inability to reach the existence of God: it can neither affirm nor deny his existence.

And very much more..., which are certainly beyond your imagination...


Is it true that the existence of God cannot be proved via any scientific instruments with the_Power_of_Creativity?

The search for scientific Proof of GOD's existence continues...

Given that Science is an ART to study, explore, confirm and connect
the Vigin of something and
the Unknown of something else.

If the Virgin of something is GOD's existence, then the next logical step is to identify the Unknown of something else...with The_Power_of_Creativity and
The_Gene_of_Nothing....

Eureka!!!

It is none other than ALIEN's Existence

mikey i think GOD isnt the issue really. its all these millions of people trying to decipher the bibles and holy writings of the world and man being well..man...it all gets jumbled up.

you have one religion that to baptise you sprinkle the water..one you dunk...one you put a drop of water on the forehead.

you have so many variations and all claiming to be "right" (some dont clam so i know its a figure of speech).

biggest cause of war in the world. religion. but yet its a "good" thing?

can i walk into any church and be taken in with open arms? no.

church these days is like everything else. sex. politics. favortism. peer pressure. there are exceptions.....this is just a general opinion of mine.

there are many great and good things and people involved in religion.

but seems like every religious person i meet or see is bible wielding on sunday and out wrecking havoc every other day. wars. closed minds.

I thought it was cool how they couldn't argue against it. Why don't we ask the smart people, and how do we know who the smart people are? I know that someone, somewhere, must know a smart person, but why aren't they sharing? DIDN'T THEY LEARN ANYTHING IN KINDERGARTEN?!?! Maybe they got held back so many times they they kicked them out. Why are THEY friends with the smart people? Am I a smart person? Most likely. Why? because I know the Truth, man! and only my friends know about it with me.

The Truth -------------------------------------
Answer these questions, please.

1.
If God gave you more evidence, what kind of evidence would you want? (PLEASE NOTE: The Word, history, signs, wonders, an infinite realm of beauty that surrounds us, and the fact that we can even ponder the Question ARE ALREADY TAKEN! So, please think of something else, thank you.)

2.
If God created the Universe by his Thoughts and Words, what does that say about Faith?

3.
If children grow up to be like their parents, and God says He is our race's "Father", what will humanity grow up to be?

4.
If we didn't practice our skills as children, would we be able to perform them well as adults?

5.
If you think God doesn't exist, then why try so hard to disprove Him? Do you also protest santa claus? Do you march in the Anti Elf, Troll and Goblin Awareness Parade?

6.
If the bible is fiction, why does it contain so many historical, geneological, archaeological, and psychological FACTS? ( And why are there so many people who try to comment on a book they've never even read?)

7.
If you were amazed at and loved the bacteria in the cells inside of your elbow, and planned on extracting them for grand future purposes one day, how would you tell them? How could you possibly let them know so they could be ready? (seriously!)

flo dear mr/mrs/miss/ms TRUTH

it seems to me you have spent rather too much time reading the work of people who have a vested interest in you continuing to believe.

sit down, relax and ponder why any of those questions could not apply to any of the worlds religions. there is no truth in saying look how cool this all is. look for a mechanism of creation.
why should random chemical chance that feedsback on itself be any less beautiful or astounding.

also, consider yourself to be a creator, awaitng the moment when you can reveal your great plan to the cells that make up your elbow (weird analogy but i liked it), before you do, just out of curiosity, you ask them what they think is going on. can you imagine how staggeringly wrong your elbow cells would get it, and how staggeringly wrong the people of this planet will have got it if God ever did come calling. they say He has a sense of humour, i think He'd get as big a laugh out of christianity as he did from the kangaroo.

lastly, people don't march against santa elves or pixies because they don't stand for restricting freedom, breedind ignorance and they certainly cannot have a major percentage of human misery attribted directly to them.
010601
...
Dafremen I disagree flo. Santa Claus and the seasonal commercialism that comes with him most CERTAINLY have done MORE to restrict freedom, breed ignorance and cause a major percentage of modern human suffering than perhaps any other commerical institution ever. More people become SLAVES to their annual Christmas bills than are sold as slaves on the Asian black market every year. So much for freedom.

More people believe that getting is more important than giving than EVER in the history of mankind. More folx think that loving your fellow man means giving your fellow man a better present than he gives you. Talk about spreading ignorance. Santa Claus has certainly spread MORE than his fair share.

Suffering? More divorces, suicides, breakups, abandonments, homicidal rampages than ANY other time of year. THANK YOU Santa!

As for Mr.Truth, as usual he's got a lot of good stuff in there, but AS USUAL he still figures that if you mix some good stuff into a sh*t sandwich that it will somehow stop being a sh*t sandwich. Now THAT'S faith!

That's a shame too, cuz if he could just pull the good stuff out and discard the rest of the baloney, he MIGHT actually be able to live up to his name.
010601
...
The Truth I could only cease to live up to my name by telling lies, which I have not done.

I just invite people to answer the questions... They're not so tough, and they are designed to lead you on a journey of personal enlightenment as you explore and ponder them.

I am curious, FLO, as to why you say/think Christianinty is restrictive towards freedom? I have found it to be just the opposite. If by that you were refering to evil as a freedom, I have only this to say. All evil is damaging to life, and to everyone, no matter how much fun it seems to be.
So if you have been harassed by ignorant people in the past who claim to be christians (as many christians just "play church") and that is somehow distorting your perceptions, then you need to draw your OWN conclusions, don't base your belief structure on the actions of a few ignorant christians. perhaps it is due to listening to someone else's opinion about it, instead of seeking for yourself...(and is that? yes, yes I believe it ...That IS ignorance!!)

I am not trying to sway anyone's beliefs. I am just telling the Truth. I encourage you to TRUELY do the research about Christianity on your own, find out for yourself!! Don't listen to me, or your neighbor, or your bar buddies, or your friends or enemies, find out and listen to your (excuse the cliche) heart.

And as for my shit sandwich... Can I have some mustard please! It tastes something like this:

Why not pray...and by pray that means actually believe that someone on the upper end is listening...even for just a few moments...and ask God to reveal Himself to you in some way. Nothing specific...and don't say:"God, if you are real then make this twinkie turn into a million dollars!" Because that would be greedy, and God cannot possible commit evil, since He is pure good, and all.
010601
...
Dafremen Ya know, not only have I ASKED your questions, I've been fortunate enough to have received the answers to those same questions. I don't know about flo, but I have NOTHING against Christians or organized religion in general. It has a place and serves a purpose and therefore is tolerable despite its inherent failings.

No I just have no USE for organized religion personally. I don't happen to need the services which it provides so many on a daily basis.

I know my maker well, it is all around me. I am very aware of my place in the grand scheme of things and I'm extremely grateful to have been given the opportunity to play whatever part was available to me no matter how insignificant.

I love life, I love the universe and I am capable of literally SURROUNDING myself with EVERYTHING around me in an empathic way. I can literally SEE the enormity of Earth and I am absolutely BLOWN away by it's relative enormity and my puny stature in relation to it.

I get a great deal of peace from the knowledge that has been granted me and I am humbled by the glory of the universe around me...my God. That's right I believe that the universe is God. It is after all my Creator.

MY own personal opinion is that people need to stop looking far off into the wild blue yonder for some Divine purpose that awaits them or their race or religion and start realizing that they are their OWN purpose.

God is all around you and you CAN see God. I'm not so sure that God LOVES you, but isn't just BEING enough? It is for me.

Perfect Paradise

Did you ever:

Overlook the three leaf clovers while searching for one with four?

Forget how good the well water tastes when you haven't had a drink for hours?
How good a glass of soda tastes when you've been drinking water for months?

Have a better bowl of beans than those served with an empty stomach?
Have a better piece of steak than the one that came on the heels of a diet of beans?

Curse the sun on a hot day and bless the rain when it came?
Then find yourself waiting after weeks of rain for the sun to peek out of the clouds?

DID YOU EVER
Realize that now is what you have, good or bad, and that the pain and suffering of human existence is what makes the small pleasure great and the minor comforts heavenly?

Perfect paradise is all around you and you don't have to wait for it because it's already waiting for you.

The Truth I am truly happy that you are fulfilled on many different levels, Dafreman. It is clear from your blatherings that your lead a deeply introspective existence. You even have enough courage to evaluate and/or judge everone else's opinions, as if you yourself had the ability to authorize them. Interesting.

I may or may not agree with you that you "need" religion...it's not for me to decide I guess. And after all, Christ himself said, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

However there is one thing I do believe.

...God...
...Relationships...
...Destiny...
...Love...

If you don't see a connection between all four of these things, you may just be missing out on something HUGE! (The_Grand_scheme_of_things for instance.)

Dafremen Read "dafremen" and perhaps you will find that your impression of me as someone who JUDGES other people's opinions is really a result of your INSISTENCE on judging that which I write.

I liked your quote from Jesus, it was very appropriate to the subject.

Destiny is a foolish notion thought up by humans who need a convenient excuse for whatever. Hell with manifest destiny behind them, white folx kept slaves and killed indigenous peoples and took their land.

Relationships. I suppose I could agree that relationships are important, but NOT in the grand scheme of things except perhaps as those relationships reflect upon one's individual character. I think the notion that relationships are important is one that stems from the fact that relationships are important to us humans, not that they're particularly important in a cosmic sense.

God? Well God is all around us my friend so I would be a fool to refute the importance of the universe and all that it has given us. Remember God=universe.

Finally Love. The same thing holds true for love that was true for relationships. IF love IS important it is in the context of how love demonstrates the character of the individual and it seems important more because of its importance to the human species than because of any universal significance.

There you have it. The whole enchilada. If you don't read dafremen then your continued rantings about my judgmental nature will hereafter be considered as your proffering fodder for my amusement and nothing more.

Thanks for shopping at Daffy's
Have A Nice Day.

The Truth Dafremen, you are close to accuracy, but only about as close as the Sun is to Alpha Centauri.

Now this: "Destiny is a foolish notion thought up by humans who need a convenient excuse for whatever."
That statement is the biggest intellectual cop-out there is! That's like saying, "The sky doesn't really exist, it's just a foolish notion for people who need an excuse for whatever." In a way, the sky is different than we think of it, but it still exists.

I have witnessed destiny more times than you could imagine. I know it to be true.
If manifest destiny wasn't destiny, then why did it come true exactly as foretold?

And your spout about relationships, this is simple.
Does a hydrogen atom have a relationship with it's electron?
Does the Earth have a relationship with the moon?
Does the Sun have a Relationship with the Earth.

Are not all of these relationships comrised of a smaller sphere orbiting a larger sphere?


Are all things in the grand scheme of things related (Relativity)?

Yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes.
010608
...
The Truth God created the universe, God is extradimensionular. To think that God IS the universe can be disproven quite simply with a logical test.

If I spit into the water, and that spit becomes home to new life. Will the life inside my spit think that my spit is me? I created that spit, it is a part of me, but it is not me.

landruc god hates Religion.

god is infinite and therefore beyond Definition. All Religions attempt to Define god. Therefore, Religion is Blasphemy. (And the more Fundamentalist a Religion is, the more blashemous it is.)

god loves agnostics.
010612
...
Dafremen You example assumes something.

A) That god is a given name belonging to an omnipotent being and therefore cannot be applied to the universe. (False logic)

B) That there is indeed an omnipotent being (let's call him..oh I don't know how about God?) who created the universe as part of a divine plan. While that does INDEED remain a possibility, where exactly should the little "who made who" game stop? Should I go on and try to contemplate THAT God's creator? And what about God's creator's creator? Should I keep going back further? Should those microbes consider my great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandfather to be God? Should it keep going further back? Would you have those poor microbes engage in the same futile philisohpical tail chasing that you seem to want humans to engage in?

No thanks, I think the universe is where I stop it. I can, with a good deal of certainty, say that I am a creation of the Universe. Unfortunately, without an even GREATER leap of faith I cannot say the same for the everpresent omnipotent God. Therefore I leave the question of God to those who have more time on their hands to than I do to ponder the question. Meanwhile, I'll get on with making the best use of what I KNOW to be true. So far I have never been more happy than since I STOPPED the little "where did I come from" "why am I here" games.

C) As for your example of how manifest destiny was REAL. I guess in so much as you make your OWN destiny, that is true. Manifest destiny provided people with the justification they needed to do what they had to do to make what happened happen. If THAT's your idea of DESTINY then I guess not only can we agree, but we need to email Webster's and have them add another number to the list of definitions of the word DESTINY.

i want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
YOU GET ME CLOSER TO GOD

help me make me perfect, help me become somebody else
i want to fuck you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to fuck you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
YOU GET ME CLOSER TO G0D

through every forest, above all the trees
within my stomach, scraped off my knees
i drink the honey inside you hive,
you are the reason i stay alive

Dafremen Hey Truth,

Read back about 4 blathers to that person calling themselves Gurl.

THAT is exactly the kind of insignificant philisophical CLAP trap that I'm talking about. WHENEVER you talk about god as some entity that created everything you get some dingleberry who wants to play the "who made the creator" game. Trust me, the universe is god it is your creator it is my creator and I personally am JUST humbled enough by the sheer enormity of it all not to be so PRESUMPTUOUS as to ask who created my creator. It is enough to be alive and to know where I came from, no need to go digging into my creator's pedigree like a nosey little b*tch.

The Truth Hey Dafremen,

Just to illustrate the point where you and I disagree, and we may have to agree to just disagree on this topic.

I believe the universe is the creation.
You believe the univere is the creator.

I really do understand why you believe that, because I've pondered that myself and arrived at that as one of my possible conclusions.

However, the little beings on this little planet called Earth, let's call them humans, have done a lot of calculating, observing, quantifying and hypothesising...and they actually discovered that this universe had a beginning! A point of Origin. They call it the_big_bang and so far they've amassed tons of evidence to support their silly little theory.

So you may freely believe that the universe IS our creator, our God, but by doing so you are inadvertantly stating that "your" God had a beginning.
Which is fine with me! I am not about to try to tell anyone they're wrong, because I simply do not know.

But I will also share, as you and everyone else have, what I believe. I believe the universe cannot possibly contain the infiniteness of the Creator.
A)There is a limited amount of energy in the universe, which conflicts with my perceptions of the infinte being of Love who designed and crafted the universe.
B) Time was created along with space. Therefore there had to exist a dimension prior to the space time continium where there was no time and space. This opens the possibilities for a timeless Creator, who had no beginning, nor ending, simply because beginnings and endings are only associated with time.

God is an engineer and an artist. The Universe is His colorful machine.

Dafremen Heheh why is it that for someone so unassuming...you assume so much?

You assume, for instance, that having discovered the "point of origin" of everything in the universe and having calculated backwards to the moment that it first started expanding from that point, that scientists now know the beginning of the universe. They do not. They know the approximate moment and spot in which THIS iteration of the universe began in this timespace...more or less.

Scientists have all of the pieces that they need to understand the endless cycle that is the universe. Unfortunately they are too busy trying to prove some of those pieces to just sit down and put them together.

The universe is never ending and although I know a perfectly plausible manner in which it could have been brought into existence at some point in time, I certainly don't require either a beginning or an end in order to be satisfied with my understanding of the nature of my origins.

It's actually a well established fact that humans have a hard time dealing with the concept of a beginningless endless stream of existence. In fact, WHENEVER we view a physical object/entity of ANY type, one of the first things we do is try to ascertain how BIG it is, then how much it weighs, then how old it is, then we estimate its longevity to estimate perhaps when this object's existence might end. We're CONSTANTLY measuring things for the purpose of establishing their physical and temporal limits. We can't stand the infinite...it drives us nuts. A beginning and/or an end ALWAYS help us to "get our heads around" things.

Which is WHY you require a God as creator and could not possibly be satisfied with anything less than something which you could not see smell taste touch or hear. Why? Simply because the universe has yet to provide you with the hope of an end...and a new beginning in which you are a part. Something which your God's judgment day provides you with; An end to this chapter a beginning of some wonderful new chapter. To look at an impassionate neverending universe as your creator would mean to stare your OWN finite existence as a human dead in the eyes and realize that there's no escape from the END of YOU as you know you. You instead require a continued existence as the centerpiece of creation...as a human. Anything else is to horrible to imagine.

No my creator has no end and requires no beginning. Yours, however, conveniently provides you with BOTH. Both a Genesis and an Armageddon. Yes your God provides you with a convenient method of BOUNDING the universe around you so that you can relate, but more importantly, your God provides you with not only a sense of past, but a sense of hope for the future...a beginning and an end for YOU..the psyche.

If that in any way helps you to enjoy life then more power to you, but you may as well understand that it isn't MY creator that is finite, but yours.

Yours begins at Genesis and Ends at your faith. You say that Genesis wasn't the beginning of God? I say it's when God first came on the scene.

I say the big bang wasn't the beginning of the universe. You say it's when the Universe first came on the scene. I have scientific theory to back up my statement. All of the pieces are there and I don't have to fabricate a single one of them. Meanwhile, the moment you made the assumption that the universe had a beginning, you immediately had to answer the question...but where did it come from and who started it? Given a choice between:

A) Changing your first assumption and entertaining the idea that the universe might be endless.(Meaning without any ends...neither beginning nor end.)

B) Actually searching for the answers to the origins of the universe.(And by so doing perhaps find the answers or go back and rethink the likelyhood of (A) ).

C) Make up some unexpected plot twist that will explain any questions that might come up.(Such as an endless being who can do anything, knows everything, made everything and can never be seen or understood because he "works in mysterious ways"(Sort of like random chance and the order that is chaos?). A plot twist not unlike Batman's Utility Belt or Green Lantern's ring of power or Flash's neverending assortment of "speed-related" abilities. A handy answer to every question,("Hey..what CAN'T God do huh?") contradiction("The Lord works in mysterious ways.") or occurrence ("The Lord protected us that day by deploying our airbags properly.")

Oh and suprise suprise...he made us humans in his image. Hey and he loves us and wants us to go away and be happy with him if we're good. Everything else? Well that's for US of course. You know like all of those deep space objects that we couldn't possibly see let alone reach. I just KNEW we had to be the REAL reason that this universe in which we are an insignificant dot was created!(Read that list again and imagine how a parentless child's "What My Dream Parent Does For Me" list might look like. Startling coincidence? Probably not. After all..isn't there always something MISSING in your average denominational convert's life before they "Find God"? Or should that read...Find Our Father?) Sounds like there's a lot of emotional and psychological baggage attached to choice number 3. That can't be helpful in finding the truth objectively! Not at all.)

See the first two choices would have established the sincerity of your desire to understand the TRUE nature of your creator. Choice C is a rewrite introduced when some folx weren't happy with the beginning or ending of the story as it applies to us humans. Here's the beginning, you were the result of a chain of random events that led to your eventually being born in this form at this location in this time period. You are not unique and the evolutionary process from Big Bang to you has almost certainly occurred more than once in THIS iteration of the universe, let alone the number of times it has occurred prior to the "BigBang".(actually more like Big Blow..one of these days I'll get around to describing the cycle of the universe. For now it's sufficient to point out the fallacy of the reasoning you used in your critique of my belief that the universe is my creator...which holds true whether it was created or not.(Which as I've said is a perfectly logical possibility whose mechanism I could explain...but the temptation to seek some eternal BEING to replace my eternal universe has yet to justify itself and so will continue to remain an ill concieved manifestation of my own human fears and insecurities. Such human bias has NO business in an objective search for truth therefore I choose not to entertain it.)

Perhaps when you've come to grips with the idea that you have NO idea what the universe IS let alone who made it, you'll finally realize that the Creator you so desperately NEED, to make sense of infinity, and the infinite universe from which you sprang, just might be one and the same thing.

Until that day comes, you just keep on looking at the Universe as an inanimate non-sentient thing and your God as the omniscient creator. That's your choice, it's also a typical one that will continue leading to more questions than it answers. Why? Because all of the ANSWERS are on the path leading toward TRUTH. The path you are on will only lead to more questions. Why? Because you chose C...and in so doing chose to avoid answering the questions altogether.

P.S. I still stand by my statement that organized religion serves a legitimate purpose in human society. It provides the comfort of "answers" when the truth is too glaringly difficult to conceive of or accept. It provides a focal point for many who need one in their lives. Lastly it provides that sense of blissful contentment with one's daily life that comes with believing that one day there will be an end to bad days and crappy lives and that happy days lie ahead. Be satisfied with your own contentment and bliss "The Truth" for it will make marching on toward your inevitable reabsorbtion into the universe that much easier to deal with.
I personally am looking forward to it when it comes...until then I TOO will march on toward that joyful reunion content and unafraid. The difference is that my bliss comes from understanding the nature of my creator, yours comes from disregarding it.

GOD THE MEEK SHALL INHERIT NOTHING


Some take the bible

With a napkin on
With a bell on a stick
An' your hair is all gone . . .
(The geek shall inherit nothin')

You say yer life's a bum deal
'N yer up against the wall . . .
Well, people, you ain't even got no kinda
Deal at all
'Cause what they do
In Washington
They just takes care of NUMBER ONE
An' NUMBER ONE ain't YOU
You ain't even NUMBER TWO

Those Jesus Freaks
Well, they're friendly but
The shit they believe
Has got their minds all shut
An' they don't even care
When the church takes a cut
Ain't it bleak when you got so much nothin'
(So whaddya do? Hey!)
Eat that pork

They're all a waste of time
'N it's your ass that's on the line
(IT'S YOUR ASS THAT'S ON THE LINE)

Do what you wanna
Do what you will
Just don't mess up

Kindly leave a little tip
And help the next poor sucker
On his one way trip . . .

The Truth Yeah! I agree Dafremen! Isn't God Great!!! 010620
...
Dafremen Giving up on trying to find gaping holes in my beliefs? Or tired of typing? Cuz I was just getting warmed up. I still haven't covered the mechanism whereby the universe endlessly creates and recreates itself.

Too bad too. Physicists and mathematicians just started presenting it as a "new" theory not too many years ago. It came to me through meditation on the nature of the universe and everything around me. The Hubble constant in particular seemed like a HUGE clue. It wasn't until I was standing in the bathroom trying to explain what the Hubble constant was and how it related to the universe that I saw in one moment the entire cycle that the universe goes through reapeatedly forever. I have YET to put it in words, but the Big Bang wasn't a bang at all. Think of our universe as a balloon. Imagine that at any given point on the ballon there is a threshhold that if reached will cause that spot on the balloon to form a bubble...basically another balloon. Ok now...as YOU watch all matter and energy at that single point disappear into the new bubble, someone observing from inside the new bubble would see something entirely different: A Big Bang. Not knowing where all of the STUFF that makes up their universe came from, they assume that the "Big Bang" is the beginning and that the stuff must have come from NOWHERE and that therefore divine intervention but be involved. Course if three blind men happen upon an elephant they might feel a rope a tree and a snake...but they'd all be wrong. It's an elephant and the big bang wasn't a big bang at ALL but a big blow. What's next? Simple...eventually gravity starts collecting everything into one spot(regardless of what the physicists say about out not having critical density...they're basing their observations on what they can SEE. Some of them know better(the mathematicians) and reserve judgement on the matter)
until such time as the threshhold is reached...then viola...new bubble...new BigBlow/Go and it starts all over again.

Where did it all come from? Heheh silly human why does everything need a beginning with you?
010620
...
MYSELF God is my bestfriend. I do not see him or hear him. I only find him in silence, when I seek him. He is always there waiting for me. I feel him. Sometimes God overwhelms me with a feeling of peace and Love.

He sees me. He knows me. I cannot hide from him.

Before, I couldn't bear to face him. Because I feared changing who I was. I feared that he would not accept me, and my sinful nature.

But I found that he Love's me anyway. And as I got to know him more, I did start to change, but it all seemed so natural, and easy.

Knowing God helps me keep my eyes on things that matter. I TRY to stay away from things that belong to this world. Things like Hate, Pain, Greed, and Lust. I TRY to keep my eyes on fruitful things like Love, Mercy, Grace, Kindness, and Generousity. This doesn't make me a "righteous" person, or any better than anyone else. It just helps me to enjoy my life and to enjoy others. And to look ahead at the life after this world that he has promised me.

ponderer Why is it, that when the subject of GOD comes up, so many non-believers get so angry about religon?

I am a believer, who wants to say one thing. PLEASE, don't judge God based off of it's followers. We will all let you down because we are all imperfect.

KNOW THIS: God is Perfect AND You don't have to be religous to know God.

Also, so many people seem to think that choosing to believe in GOD is "the weak minded" choice. I THINK that it requires much more bravery to believe in something that you can't see or hear, or touch (in the literal sense).

I believe that it takes a little bit of bravery to look into the spiritual realm and to invite this into your life.

Dafremen By your definition of bravery ponderer, I'm afraid we've ALL chickened up quite a bit since we stopped believing in Santa Claus(Course we believed in him for the presents.)

Then there are all of those BRAVE souls who put a tooth under their pillow every night. Now THAT's gotta take courage...specially since you're counting on the Tooth Fairy bringing you some money.

Let's not forget those absolutely FEARLESS kids who wait patiently each Spring for the Easter Bunny to arrive with their Chocolate Bunnies and their candy eggs.

We're not done yet though, because it isn't just KIDS who are brave enough to believe in things that they can't detect with their senses...adults do it too.

There are all of those brave Scots and Non-Scots standing vigilantly at Loch Ness should nessie FINALLy peer her head up and look directly into a camera.

Let's not forget the Bigfoot/Sasquatch hunters out there. Now THAT IS bravery...chasing after a 9 foot ape-man with no clothes(oh and so far no physical manifestation either.)

There's Yeti and the Jersey Devil...all sorts of "monsters" to choose to believe in and by so doing demonstrate your BRAVERY and good judgement. By the way, most of these folx are chasing after the notoriety that would come if they could ever PROVE that their imagination isn't full of figments after all.

Then there are those BRAVE denominational souls who do it for "the life after this world that he has promised me." My my...just OOOZING with bravery aren't we? What if God had said, "Well, folx enjoy this life...it's all you got. There is nothing after this...just you and oblivion. You might get to come back as a rock or part of a tree...but you definitely won't be human anymore..hell you won't even be in one SPOT anymore. You'll be sucked back into the Earth ashes to ashes like I told ya."(?) The minute you take the reward away God loses his appeal. Typical humans...trying to prop up your mythology with little wooden sticks in the hope that the rest of the world will believe it's as real as you do. OR at least as real as you HOPE it is. SUCH is the nature of your faith. It is a faith based on hope and as I've mentioned before..sometimes that's all that can get some people through the day. The reality is too horrible for you to face. See, you've confused escapism with bravery, which is incredible since they're practically opposites. Then again, I shouldn't be suprised...it's isn't the first error in judgement you've made.

P.S. Although I do believe that it's possible for a BEING to have created the universe, I don't require that belief and I most DEFINITELY DO NOT BELIEVE that, in the event this is true, that being is spending its time waiting for us to come through the light. We are a very small part of this big beautiful universe, why can't you just be satisfied with playing what small part there is for you to play? Why do you require some sort of leading role? WHY do you need a reward in order to believe? Isn't existence reward enough?

god that's when el's 'shrooms really began to kick in.
he spun his head around violently. his thick rubbery lips flailed like soggy tubesocks tied to the door handle of a '79 volare. a single drop of grease escaped from his mane like a little child thrown from a merry-go-round.
his eyes narrowed, then focused on a cloaked apparition bearing what appeared to be an ancient scroll containing terrible mysteries. upon the scroll was a single slice of pizza, also shedding grease.
elvis lunged greedily for the slice. the apparition dissolved, and el found himself plunging into an abyss.
el's head swam as he backed away from the toilet. he pulled up his pants, and half-heartedly raised his zipper. his hands, and the entire bathroom, were covered with shit. he retched, then reeled out of the room.

Contributed by: god on October 29, 2000

el looked down the corridor. he limped weakly back towards his room. he saw in his mind the faces of millions of girls. thousands of stages. hundreds of towns. it seemed like a distant dream here in the spacecraft.. spacecraft?...
SPACECRAFT?!!!
his mind spun into oblivion as the last shred of his sanity tore.

Fire&Roses People say belief in God is weak. Why? When your little you belive in Santa Claus. You get older you believe in virgins. Middle age comes and you believe in money... but eventually all those things leave you. What have you got? Nothing. No faith. No hope. No reason to smile. No reason to get up in the morning.

Other people say you should accept any relgion. If one is valid why not all of them? Why not? What makes your god better than mine? Well it isn't God really... all religions have God... they all have an opposite of him... but how many have Jesus? How many have a sacrifice of love for undeserving people?

Then there's well if he loves us so much why does he let all this bad stuff happen to us? Well no one really KNOWS why God does anything, but personally I don't think it is God. He was here... we banished him... he cursed us with death and pain... he returned and we rejected him... but he'll come back to reclaim those that kept the faith. To take back what was once his.

It seems every time someone brings up a decent, well thought out, intelligent, poetic or otherwise beautiful thought, those, and they are the same ones throughout blather, the "geeks" if you will, they immediately type some nonsensical, irrelevant, incoherent, unrelated form of jibbering blather_pollution as if it is some kind of reply. Kind of like those people that, when you are telling them something they don't want to hear, they cover their ears, close their eyes and scream, "I can't hear you blah blah blah blah..."

me I'm not sure what to say here. A lot of people who blather about God seem really angry and defensive. I don't feel that way. I have no reason to. I used to wonder if God existed, but now I know that He always has, and always will. I see the good He has done, and the bad that He has prevented, every day. He takes my hand, leading me through life. He fills my heart with the peace which the world cannot give. He is at my side when everyone else has deserted me. He loves me when no one else does. At night I kneel in the dark, with tears of joy running down my face, as I talk with Him and hear His voice in return. He has filled that empty spot in my life that nothing else could fill. I am happy, and I do want to share my happiness with others. But I do not want to contradict anyone else's beliefs or argue with anyone. It is not my right to judge other people. I will never say that one person's religion or beliefs is right and another's is wrong. That is not for me to say. I struggle and mess up just as much as the next person. But I do have a Friend who is always there to guide me each step of the way. I want to introduce everyone to this Friend, but everyone has to choose their own path. No one can do it for them. (Amen.

dodgy ...in a flat on the sea shore in a lonely grey town at night - when the frost came down and the streets were harsh grey. we sat my friend and me in a living room - drinking coffee, taking drugs and talking philosophy, i claimed to know 'God.' jimi played away on the guitar the notes rising and falling in my head like the waves on the seashore where dylan wrote his first and his last lines...just outside the window...the city buzzed and police cars drove past and the people in the clubs and bars getting drunk and stoned and playin the age old game, just 1/2 a mile away looked for something in the drink, and in the music, and in the drugs and in eachother - and i looked too - together we all searched - alone - in a room full of people...i laughed a fake, plastic laugh - it wasn't even funny - the spit dried on the back of my throat and my guts wrenched...James brought me orange juice but it tasted funny, sour, my legs began to shake, or was it my eyes, then my head, and my whole body twitched, every nerve responded multiple times as i touched things...i lost balance and unseen, unheard things dropped down on me...in terror i fell to the floor, attacked, defeated by an unseen enemy, in my head, in my stomach, paranoia gripped me - sheer terror - life passed before me - a yawning grey mass - a precipice - vanity - meaningless - pointless - i was a civilised monkey - in levis, i took drugs and spoke philosophy but i was darwin's monkey...where are you God? in all my pain, in all my suffering...where are you God? How can i say I believe you exist when i cant see you exist, I cant feel you existing?
I stumbled on the road in the dark, leaning on my friends shoulder, too much, the fuzz drive past sirens racing - i am struck by paranoia - i think about the river behind me, dark, cold, death, like eternity, somehow welcoming - i can't be this way forever - if i turn left i end it, if i turn right i go on, somehow, i must go on...my head pounding my heart racing, the street shaking, terrible thoughts in my head, i put my feet to the street, my friend at shoulder, and turned right - and walked into the city...

...
dodgy ...that first night and for weeks afterward i could not sleep. the most i got was a few hours - i would shut my eyes to sleep - exhausted at 3am in the morning - but would be too afraid to let go - i would imagine a vastness inside my head - a huge vacuum of nonsense and nothingness that is indescribable - my own mind played tricks on me; and drove me to the edge - my heartbeat would thunder in my head, keeping me awake - my ears would whistle and just as i would drop off - i would feel my eyes roll back in my head - the image of death and wake up again - even when i slept there was some part of me awake inside, screaming to get out - and i would have terrible dreams. I dreamt that i was standing in a darkened room - alone - to my right was a crack of light through a slightly ajar door - and then i looked ahead of me to see the devil himself staring into my eyes - who looked like a man - and he touched me upon my side - claiming me - and i woke to find my side cold. I would sleep an hour in a night and wake in cold sweats to find my arms 'felt' as though they were on back to front...i was slipping into madness - my own mind attacked me in its thoughts and actions - it doubted not just God, and truth, but life itself - am I real? Is this all real? does it mean anything at all? whats the point? do we exist?

one night i sat in my living room watching television. there was indian music on winding and wailing away - i tapped my foot and listened - suddenly the music was seeping into the living room in my mind - my whole vision began to fade and shake again - i had to get away - looking in the mirror i saw my pupils dilated and swelling like i was high but i hadn't touched anything for months - i placed my dog on a lead a good excuse for wandering around in the dead of night and left the house - down the road to the lane that leads to the woods - it was dark and cold - but i felt nothing but fear of that which was in me, whatever caused me to feel as i did...how was i to go on like this...? the wind blew down off the hills through my thin jacket and the dog pulled on the leash - i was enveloped by darkness - it hid my face and my shame - desperation gripped me - i knew there was nothing for me on earth - there was no doctor that could heal me, no psychologist that could help me, no drug that could restrain me, nothing in all the earth to help me - it was all in vain - there was one hope and one hope alone. that hope was that if there was a God, and not only this - that he cared enough to reach down, into my life and change me, heal me, give me my life back, give me hope - that was the last hope the last refuge of the scoundrel. The best refuge.
my life was before me, what did i know of God, sunday school, the bible, prayer - we're supposed to pray to him - but what if he doesn't exist? aren't i just wasteing my time? what if he does exist but he doesn't give a lot for me..? what if id blown my last chance...wasted all my get-out-jail-free cards, been too bad.
what if...then i prayed...walking through the woods in the dark, in desperation, in the humility that comes from weakness (we all will get there one day) i layed aside all my questions and raised my voice in the darkness, 'Jesus Christ, the bible says you are the light of the world, if this is true, will you shine a light for me and show me the way out...heal me, set me free Lord, please...' I repeated...the hope not rising in my heart...i began to despair again...nothing happenned...then i got to the bottom of the hill that leads to home and stepped up onto the pavement in the dim light and looked up the hill...in shock i stopped...ahead of me resting on the brow of the hill was the moon - low in the sky and hanging on the horizon and calling me toward it...chills ran down my spine...what the heck...? Can God really be real..? Despite all the questions does he really exist, does he really care...? Is his name really Jesus...? who everyone mocks so much..?
I walked on my head still pounding...heart in my mouth...i walked toward the light...and in 5 i found myself at my parents house. i knocked on the door - and my dad came to let me in. he asked me if i was ok. I hesitated - my shame rising again - but desperation won - i told him - and he took me to the lounge - where i collapsed on the floor - he placed his hands on me and prayed - fear in his voice...and then we went upstairs and my mother awoke...she made me sit down and prayed again...all the time my head said...'tell her not too bother...God doesn't care for you...You're going to hell...and in the same sentence...God doesn't exist...he has left you...' They kept praying.
Eventually i calmed down and went to bed. In front of the bed was a small shelf and a bible. I reached out and flicked it open lying on my bed. I didn't know what to think. It opened on Psalm 22.
'My God, My God why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me...?'
Reading through the suffering, fear, pain and desperation in the psalm - i felt a connection - then i thought about who wrote it - King David of Israel - thousands of yrs before Jesus - and I remembered then Jesus' words on the cross, in the new testement, 'My God, My God why have you forsaken me?' eaxctly the same. And all of a sudden I knew this was a prophecy - made by a King of Isreal many yrs before Jesus was born about a man - who was God -who would die to save the world - and all creation would bow down to him. In shock i quietened my soul. Then I prayed with the psalm.
God if you heal me, I will 'declare your name to my brothers, in the congregation i will praise you.' With that i turned the light out and fell asleep.
My friends/brothers/sisters/even enemies - this testimony is true - and i declare to you now that the prayer I just wrote was answered - and the proof of that is that I type here now to each one of you - declaring the name of my God - the only God - who is mighty to save - who is like noone else - and declaring his praise - for he did heal me - he did give me my life back - and he can do the same for anybody -who is humble enough to come to him in all there brokeness - put aside there questions and ask him - we are his people - let him be God. This is not about religion, or rules, or laws this is about a relationship with a person - the Living God. If you come to Him with an open mind - and ask him to take away your blindness - and if you put your trust in him - you will not be disapointed.

what riles me is religion. all of it.
i believe that religion is one of the biggest causes or suffering in the world, whether today or in the past
if god exists, i hope he or she or it or whatever has the presence of mind (or whatever) to tell all the religions to fuck off and let everybody get on with their lives
maybe without religion people will have less ground to stand on when they claim they are killing god's enemies

Mike Bog is the energy that everything is made up of, and needs to survive. It is not a gender, it is beyond that. Gender is a human category that Bog couldn't possibly fit in to. Bog is personified as a man, or a woman, or a group of men and women, and this is neither correct or incorrect. Is it not easier to classify what we don't understand so that it may benefit us. 011110

Adam in bitter about the state of the world mode Is there anything more ambiguous? God is either your best friend/worst enemy or an etheral figure that none of us can ever hope to understand. But do we in today's society of technoligy and science need God? Do we need anything besides our pointless jobs, our inane whining about life's "unfairness," our StarBucks, our sex, our drugs, our petty wants... the list never ends- but where does God fit into this equation? Maybe if we give up on the idea of this all-powerful deity and concentrate on the innate spirituality that is buried somewhere deep inside all of us, we can stop wasting our lives fretting over such useless things and work on bettering ourselves and those around us.

turn him on... you never wanna turn him off... he hypnotizes you and seduces you into his world... he fucks with your mind and causes you to think about things you wouldn't regularly think about... things you don't have to think about, things that are not worth thinking about. god is a waste of time, just like t.v. is... the only difference between the two is that you can touch a t.v... but you'll never touch god.

Miffey It makes sense that there might be a god.
But the bible doesn't make sense. As a matter of fact it doesn't even make sense that our (as a society) violence prone, crack-addled little brains could even comprehend something that could create something that worked so well together that is the cosmic machine.
So we (as worldy societies) will continue to see that it would be a very astronomical (maybe?) chance that all this could have come by accident, and we'll continue to try to label everything and put it in alphabetical order in little jars on the shelf.
God is inside you, folks. Whatever his (her, it's?) name is. Just open yourself, and do what you feel is right. It all works out in end. Good and evil, right and wrong. The enternal struggle, but only becuase we're human. Not becuase we're puppets...

Does that make sense?
Yeah, I know. Neither does the Bible.

dodgy Jesus claimed to be God.

Jesus hung out with sinners, he loved them. He healed the sick and helped out prostitutes, he instructed thieves and aided the poor. Jesus offended most of the leaders of the day because he was too radical. he was doing miracles and people were afraid that he was to lead a rebellion of the people against the rulers. many of these leaders were the respected religious leaders of the day. He gave sight to the blind, forgave the wicked, looked after the sick, and the old and preached good news to the poor. people did not understand him or his ways including his first disciples. jesus was crucified by the romans as recorded in history. the disciples and early church fathers claimed that he rose from the dead after three days - proving that was God, that he could save any who would put their faith in him and turn from their wasting - and bring them into not only fulness of life here on earth - but endless pleasures in heaven. jesus was the most radical teacher ever- - he taught not just outward change but a change of the heart - the coming of a kingdom of justice where the cries of the poor, and broken and lonely would be heard - where there would be no more pain - tears - he claimed that he was going to bring in after a time this kingdom and that it was down to men to choose whether they wanted in or out. the person of jesus has had the greatest effect upon human history then any other man. but the fact is - he also claimed to be God.

not everybody who sits in a pew or who wields the name of Jesus is christian. jesus said that it is by their fruit we should know them. a christians fruit should be that they follow in christ's footsteps - a life of love and self-sacrifice. do not judge christ by christians.

"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is
overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for
acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence."

Do you not believe in God because you feel he would ask you to give up things in your life that you cannot afford to?

If I know anything about God it is this. He seeks what is best for us - to give us real, lasting joy - and peace and love which cannot be found anywhere else, in my experience but in that enigma of a person - jesus. there is a pit in front of us that none of us can cross - it is the judgement of a good God who must judge bad in the world - otherwise he would cease to be good - but he has provided a way for us to return to his heart of love - to fulness of joy - to real life - to meaningful existence - that way is through Jesus.

GOD LOVES US INTIMATELY. WHATEVER PEOPLE MAY SAY.

Id If God is all-knowing then God knows all the music that has ever been performed. If God is all-knowing God also knows how to make compact discs. Therefore, God might have a massive music collection of all the music that has ever been played on Earth. Can you imagine that? If you go to Heaven (whatever it is) you can "walk" up to that music collection, select "aulos & harp music of Periclean Athens" and groove to pre-Socratic music. Isn't that remarkable? You could select another C.D. of Plato's favourite melodies and read the liner notes about all the music's background. You could also spend your whole "day" digging the beats of pre-historic tribal music. Maybe all this is in the akashic records? 020503

J.K.R. Some modern authors like to insist that WE are God. Even if this is true we must be careful and vigilent about whatever presumptiousness this may lead to. Even if it is true, then we can only be PARTS of God; and logic dictates that each part is NOT equal to, and thus cannot describe the WHOLE! Logic also dictates that each "part" (each of us) did not wake up in the morning and create planet Earth! Furthermore, if we are God and we strive to be near God, then we strive to be near to ourselves, and we are already "near" to ourselves in that we are who we are! There can be no cogency to the claim that we are God, unless we claim to be lowly, humble parts of a glorious Whole! In this latter case, or in the traditional case that we are CREATIONS, we must necessarily learn of and study God through the writings of those who walked with "Him": St.Augustine, Tielhard de Chardin, Thomas Aquinas, Plato, Plotinus, Moses Maimonides, the Talmudic Sages, the Unity Fellowship Authors, Siddartha Buddha, Patanjali and a thousand other wise folk with fruits to feed our souls!
Only by READING, only LEARNING, only by THINKING and QUESTIONING can we learn anything about God or about any other subject. Beware of "tranquilizers" (i.e. Pop Culture, Peer Pressure, Junk Foods) that stop you THINKING!

Plastic Jesus Staring into the darkness,
looking for reasons to flee,
thinking of nothing but hatred,
looking for a light where none is to be seen,
I tire of this search,
a search of the soul it seems,
did I miss something in this life,
it seems to deal me so much strife,
living life day by day,
refusing to sell my soul like the slaves,
There is no god for me to see,
only a thirst for knowledge is what I crave,
stuck in this dark dark place,
I only seem to despise this race,
never knowing why or how,
just knowing it's the truth for me now,
my soul fading slowly every day,
searching my soul for the right words to say,
never finding what it is I seek,
the only thing I feel anymore is weak.

zander the bible says everyone has a free will, right? But it also says god knows everything and can see into the future right? how can you have free will if god already knows what you`re going to do? 030101

zander The bible says we all have free will right? it also says god knows in advance what we`re going to do right? So how can we have free will if god can tell exactly what we`re going to do? 030101
...
scuzz The first step there is to read the Bible. God knows everything about every person, regardless of our boundary of "time." A hard concept to grasp is that He's beyond time. He gave us free will so that we may choose Him over all the crap we get ourselves into everyday. Of course He knows what we'll do, but He won't force us to choose; He leaves that up to us.
Please, don't sit and ponder all the little supposed "loopholes" of the Bible. Read it.

my question is, if we're supposed to use logic for everything else in life, why do we suppress it for religion?

my answer is, because religion makes no sense. people need to believe answers that don't make sense becausee they can't figure out the real answers. over time we've been elucidating many things in the world, all but the question of "why are we alive?".

screwing fro virginity rather god exsists or not (i personally think the does) is a mute point because the mere thought of god has helped (and hurt/killed) a countless number of people.

to take an example from the douglas_adams book the_salmon_of_doubt, in the 60's or 70's there were a group of people from america who wanted to help some some village in some 3rd world country by increasing its rice crop. they went to the country where they have been growing rice the same way for hundreds or thousands of years because they thought that is how their gods wanted them to grow it. they planted at the time their gods told them to, used the tools their gods told them to, and used the techneques (sp?) their gods told them to. then the americans come in with fertilizers, pestisides, a few trackers, and taught them a more modern way to farm. the small village got a huge increase in rice. it has much less hunger and it can even sell some off to make more money. well, this lasted for 2 or 3 years until the neutriants in the soil were used up by the large harvests, and they had a verry poor crop.
see, even though their old method (which was used because thats what the gods wanted them to use) seemed less efective over the span of a few crops, over long term it was better because it replaced all lost neutriens so that they had at least a moderate amount or rice every year.
how does this relate to god you might ask. if they didnt have such a strong faith in their gods then they would have used a "more effective" method years before that, and would have gone hungry due to the soil becoming sour (even though they probably would have seen it as a bad harvest because they offended the gods by using a different method.)

so even if you dont believe in god or gods, you must admit that these people's belief has saved their lives for manny years because of natural or devine processess.

a lost man among a vessel drained of life.

He blinked one eye and never averted the gaze, seemingly lost among the filmy haze.

I asked him to speak his name, he said.

"Gimme another boss...I'm feelin weak..."

xo "I refuse to believe a book of 'the word of god' which could have easily been written by a bunch of drunk guys around a campfire."
Haha so you honestly think that a bunch of drunk guys could make a complex book like the bible from scratch and convince thousands of people? The bible is legitimate because LOTS of people wrote it. Archaeologists are still digging up original (separate shock horror) pieces of the scripture today. I wish people who so blatantly dismiss the bible would know their facts. It's fine to say you don't believe in the word of God, but don't try to argue that it wasn't written by a lot of real people sharing experiences that were real to them.

closet ballerina Two god quotes that appeal to me as an atheist:

1)
And jesus was a sailor,
when he walked upon the water
he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower
and when he knew for certain only
drowning men could see him, he said,

"all men shall be sailors then,
until the sea will free them."

but he himself was broken
long before the sea would open
forsaken, almost human,
he sank beneath your wisdom
like a stone.

-leonard cohen

2) When god decided to invent
everything he took one breath
bigger than a circustent
and everything began

when man decided to destroy
himself he picked the was
of shall and finding only why
smashed it into because.

and the world began

Falcon you know, it's interesting that so many of you hear the word god, and immediately think christian. There are quite a few other religions out there, and not all of them are hateful and oppressive. For instance, I doubt there has ever been a buddhist hate crime commited.

Furthermore, even if we do restrict the discussion to christianity, so many of you seem to think that all christians are like jerry fallwell. I've personally known enough christians who were great people to know that christianity in and of itself is not the problem, It's people who kill people for being different, not god.

And I know it's been said before, but there is no scientific way to prove that god does or does not exist, it's all a matter of faith. Personally I don't care what faith you have, as long as you do have a faith, be it christianity, buddhism, athieism, or whatever.

On the subject of how god must hate us because he doesn't stop all the violence in the world, the bible does say that god gave man free will, doesn't it? Free will means choice: the choice between good and evil. If he didn't let people do evil things then we wouldn't really have free will, would we?

Well, I've talked enough for now, and I'm tired, so I'll talk to you all later.

tyger I believe in Him. But I hate the way the religious right has hijacked everything about God in this country and made it hateful.

I am afraid to confess that I am a Christian to others, not because I am afraid they will think I am a prude or be offended, but because I am afraid they will think that I am one of those people who hates gays and condemns unwed mothers and wants to force schoolchildren to pray every morning...

Whenever I tell someone that I am a Christian, I always follow it up by saying, "but I'm not one of THOSE Christians" so they will understand that I believe in love, forgiveness, acceptance, charity, personal sacrifice and the forgiveness of sins (and I focus on my own and not those of others) rather than smug superiority.

thestoryteller> Our strength as mankind has a solid perception of what is just and good. For the most part, this is idealized by all the great writtings from long ago. The principle being the Bible itself.
Our weakness is in not realizing that life is not a static event. It is ever changing.
To change is good, but to some change is unsettleing in that they are constantly keeping up with what is new in their lives. How that new event changes the stability of a personal reality is rendered by their grasp onto the beliefs in God

Helicala God is a myth.

An explanation developed before science came into play.

Religion is among the biggest causes of war and suffering.

Take the following:
The Inquisition
The burning of "witches"
The Crusades
The nuns that make Catholic schoolkids cry

And what kind of a religion tells you that jealousy is a sin? It's a human emotion; it can't be controlled.

Besides, without jealousy, there would be little drive, and therefore less accomplishment.

maharey Not sure where all this is going ...to keep myself occupied, maybe to keep to myself or perhaps only to spark more discussion. Reality and Truth are based on Perception -- everyone sees Truth differently based on their background or beliefs. So this is what I currently see about After Life.



***Some people belive instead of an after life maybe it’s more like a before life, and randomly spirits have an opportunity to be human long enough to givetheirexistence a purpose or meaning. So I guess that would make us the end result and not the beginning.



***Some people believe that when you're dead, you are dead. These people fear NOTHING. I find those who are the most frightened of death are those who believe they can go to hell, but want to go to heaven. Is hell really a bad place? Stereotypically yes, but realistically? It’s impossible for anyone to actually know what 'hell' or 'heaven' for that matter really is.



Religion. Go ahead, just say it...'I know everything and you do not, so listen to me.' That’s all it is.


Theres something there inside. The strength of my own something, a higher power within me that always seems to rally to the cause when called upon. I have to admit that the idea that one day I will die doesent really bother me. Im not going to know when or how. However I’m not about to spend what precious time I have believing my after life will be spent moving other people’s furniture about, or my before life was spent in nothingness, waiting for a body to live in.






People have a pretty close minded (maybe even arrogant) opinion of the way 'The' or Any 'God' operates. Perhaps HE is subject to physical laws. Maybe all He or It could do is start the process of creation, but not practically manipulate it.



Just because you don't agree with the concept of God, doesn't mean "God", doesn't exist. Then again doesn’t mean 'he' does.





How can anyone talk as though they know about souls or God or anything at all religious
or even the existence of aliens and UFOs? Or maybe even a being that has nothing better to do then play with their 'Ant Farm' (ant farm being earth), randomly squashing a few to see how they react, and being upset when they do not acknowledge that the being is up there yet still begging it to spare them. If this was the case, even with all the power the it is suposed to have, why show itself to us? which would immediately prove its existence? No, if it was that way, it would be too difficult for all the 'Ant Farm' religious organizations to profit off of the other 'Ants' fears, or take advantage of the younger 'Ants' while being protected by the organization leaders (preachers and shit like that).



I don't think Science will ever answer the deeper questions of existence. Keep on trying, what better things do people have to do than to just keep trying to find answers because they’re just too afraid of the uninevitable. Unanswerable questions is all they’re asking themselves.

"Wow god, noone could have done it but you. Great job god. Next to you I feel so insignificant, the only way i can feel even the slightest bit important is to look around me and see all the other mud that didn't get to sit up. Thankyou for this honor god"

I don't get it. I know in my heart if God existed he would give me a clue. I am not talking about some old book with scary stories - I mean he would really get down with me and chill!

But the funny thing is...

I was walking home a few days ago passed the ghetto and three guys pulled me into an ally so deep and narrow it was like a tunnel. When I saw the first guy start to unzip his pants I just drop to my knees and started praying.

He just looked down at me pull out his nasty old weenie and said - yah grl that's just wherr I wans ya 2 be. And, I just looked away and prayed even a little harder.

Then I heard a whoop whoop cop car thingie sound and saw a bright light shine at the end of the tunnel. Next thing I knew they all ran like roaches when you turn on the light.

OK so -- it was no burning bush but it sure saved mine! So perhaps I'll have to reconsider this thing called faith!

I could smell his stinky crotch as he pulled me near. I wanted to scream -- but all I do was whisper. No lord, please no.

me God is the ultimate.
he has loved us, and payed dearly for us. Do any of you even realize what he has done for YOU?

He has created everything I have ever known, and ever will know.

And too many arrogant stuck up idiots think that they are too good for God. All I can say is that I too, will cry at the fate of such people. Their hearts are stone, and they will not allow any light to shine upon themselves.
In their last days, they will search vainly because they have abandoned God.
But if you honestly seek God, you will find him.

"Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." Jerehmiah 29: 12-13


"O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;"
Psalm 63:1

pete I enjoy Jung's interpretation of Job and the crucifixation.

In short, as God made Job suffer and denied that he does not give Job an answer in the theophany (though to the reader the prologue and epilogue show Yahweh at fault, first goading the Adversary on, and later he gives Job all his stuff back), he goes through a process of individuation and must in turn suffer. When Jesus of Nazeruth is crucified, that is God is crucified, he is experience the human suffering that he has forced onto so many people in previous history and is realizing that it isn't really a good thing to do it. He even blasphemes (minorly) against him self when he declares "My father, My father, Why have you foresaken me?" In that light, God does not even hold out as strong as Job does, and shows his weakness when it comes to human sufferning.

Shaun Think about it.Judas's regrets,"50 pieces of silver,is that all my soul was worth?".Why was he chosen for this crime?Cirtainly there could have been another way.Or Isau,simply hated,he weeped for forgiveness but recieved none.Kain,his offering was unacceptable,he killed his brother for this.And kain was cursed.

I relate to these people.These are the greatest examples of human nature and fault in the bible.Not Jesus.His perfection was an example of Gods nature.We have more in common,as people,with these figures than any other person described in the bible.

Jesus said "You are to be perfect,as your father in heaven in perfect.".Oh Jesus,won't you tell me how?

In short,were all fucked.

smurfus rex with the kind of treatment that Christian Scientist parents get in the newspapers when they try to pray their kids back to health after an accident, can you imagine what the headlines would read if people started sending their kids out to the mobs to be crucified in the streets?

if the instruction is to "be ye perfect, as thy father in heaven is perfect", then it must be perfect to kill your own children. it is perfect behavior to hand over your son to the mob so that he can be beaten, tortured, and nailed to a cross and hung up to die. and when other people look to you for justification, you simply say, my son died in your place, for your sins. and rational people will look at you with disbelief and horror and say

YOU JUST KILLED YOUR OWN FUCKING SON!!

An American was beheaded in Iraq for the sins of George Bush and people in the US go, "Jesus! Can you believe those Middle Eastern madmen!?!?"

Jesus walked the sands of the Middle East, you know.

I do not claim to know the mind or the will of God. I am not that arrogant. All I will claim to know is that the Creator pays great attention to detail, which is proven through the close inspection of something as simple as a tree leaf. Do not tell me what God is/wants/does unless you presume to tell me that you are God.

Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live!

Now your burden's lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stain, so
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live!

And like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk
Sometimes we fall...so
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live!

Sometimes the way is lonely
And steep and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain, then
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live!

O, and when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live!

And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!

iforgotmyname god is for people who are scared of what will happen to them when they die and for poeple that think too much about before the earth was here. the human mind cant grasp that at one point in time there was nothing there at all. so we imagined a god. i honestly dont see how people can believe that there is some dude up there who will punish us when we die if we do something naughty, unless were christian, of course because they are forgiven. so basically "heaven" is made up of people, whether they are evil or not but just because they are religious, even the second before they die, whereas people who may well have been the best people in the world go to "hell" just because they didnt believe in god.
another thing that pisses me off is that some people who are very religious act as though i have no morals or goodness just because im not freakin religious, when half of them do stuff like litter and when you say why dont you put that in the bin they say its not my problem right fuckin christian attitude that is.b if they are supposed to have morals bloody well stick to them. that really gets my goat (i love that saying).
Another thing that i wonder about is that if i went back in time an called myself the daughter of god and wrote a book would people have believed me?
I would hate to be american even the freakin president is always craping on about god.
in australia right now its really funny coz these footballers raped some sluts and all these religious people are crying out even though 4% of priests have been accused of raping children! fucking children!(i meant the fucking as an emphsis word not as in the act, but anyhow).
im glad i got that out coz thats something that really pisses me off)

SW I'm sorry if i repeat anything that has already been said, but this page is just too long. :P

How can I believe in god? I can't even count the number of times I've been told, "It's all part of god's plan." If god has a plan for me, why does it involve so much pain? How can anyone believe in a god that lets children stave to death, and wars break out, and bombs be built? How can anyone have faith in a god that sits by and watches all the suffering that people go through? It says in the bible that god will not tempt anyone beyond what they can stand. Then why tempt at all? If you can withstand it, it's not really temptation, and if you can't, again, why do people suffer? AS for god giving us free will, thats the stupidest thing I've ever heard when you combine it with all the other christian teachings. ie, the "god has a plan" deal. How can we make our own decisions if god already has our lives mapped out for us? Or does he have alternate scenerio's for every single thing that could happen? Well, If she does drugs, this is what will happen. And if she does this, this will happen, etc etc. If she doesn't do drugs... You get the point. And, seeing as how that's highly unlikely, if god already knows how you're going to turn out, why waste his time on you? If he decided before your born, Oh, well, this childs going to hell for sure, why does he make us suffer through life? Is he truely that sadistic?
Anyways, all this has probably been said much more eliquointly in this post. And what I did say probably makes no sense, but oh well. I just find it impossible to believe in god anymore.

JustOnMonday SW and anyone else:
Don't give up on god yet. I don't want to be preachy and tell you that you can find the answers in your bible or in prayer. I understand where your coming from. Why would god make us suffer? What's the point of living if he has it all planned out for us? I understand that you don't understand, because I don't understand. Understand? I don't think anyone is supposed to understand really. Just have faith, as cheesy a that sounds. Truthfully, not giving up on god is one of the reasons I am alive. god gives me hope. Hope is all I need anyway.

Spinner We're so gullible sometimes, making men into Gods, but a man cannot be a god, he is after all mortally wounded and he carries with him, his mortal wounds... Sometimes, while basking in the glory of our adoration, the throbbing wounds seem to fade into the shadows... almost forgotten... almost, but not quite. And so we deify these creatures, then swooning in divine mystery, crash like dancing fools, when the God acts out of character, or rather within the character of man....
Why are we so desperately searching for something better? Looking to find the light, a light in this misery(?), despair(?), tedium(?), bleakness(?)... What are we running from? What are we trying so hard to avoid? Our own insecurities perhaps? Our own short-comings? The ghosts of our own pasts? But if we ignore our own darkness, we will always be searching for the light, we will never be happy... Eventually, the Gods we worship become the shadows we run from... forcing us to bow down before them, paying the dues we seek to deny... The world is a mere projection of ourselves.... so stop searching, and look deep within, under the layers of shame, is a candle, the eternal flame, it's yours, a light, your light, the light.

Holy Sonnet 14

Batter my heart, three-person'd God, for you
As yet but knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend;
That I may rise and stand, o'erthrow me, and bend
Your force to break, blow, burn, and make me new.
I, like an usurp'd town to'another due,
Labor to'admit you, but oh, to no end;
Reason, your viceroy in me, me should defend,
But is captiv'd, and proves weak or untrue.
Yet dearly'I love you, and would be lov'd fain,
But am betroth'd unto your enemy;
Divorce me,'untie or break that knot again,
Take me to you, imprison me, for I,
Except you'enthrall me, never shall be free,
Nor ever chaste, except you ravish me.

dreamer I wonder why most everyone thinks God is a omnibenevolent being. Like He has to be nice to everyone, and give everyone what they consider will make thier lives better. No one really considers the idea that God might be naturally evil, an Un-God. If He is this Un-god, why does He do so many good things? Would people complain that Un-God was being unjust if He passed over letting loose a natural disaster; if He passed over starting another world war. Why isn't this Un-God doing His job? Shouldn't He be making my life miserable right now? Why isn't every person on earth breaking out in festering boils? Why aren't plagues of locusts ravaging everyone, everyday, everysecond? Why are we allowed to taste, touch, see, hear, smell? How can He allow this? Why are we allowed these simple pleasures in life? 050121

shnookums One time, When I was in Riverside Ca, taking a walk to work. GOD said "hey Mike",
I trembled and my spine stiffened up. becasue of his exceeding greatness, I couldnt see him as a personage, but he was as the greatness of the son in the sky, it was as if I was a microscopic organism.
It felt as if a million people were all focused on me in that one moment, kind of like when a spotlight hits you, when your in a stadium at a basketball game, if your at a huge event and your self shows up on one of those huge screens.
it felt like that..

But there are too many gods who tell me that their way and only their way is the true way. What are the chances that the true god in the world if there is one either understands, doesn't give a shit, or appretiates the effort.

another psychoanalyst but it isn't like it matters, does it? because if you look up at the sky and see the same thing, does it matter if there is something up there or not?

or do you really care if you're singing in the shower and someone might be listening?

Christ without the cross I agree with all of you on all of this. I believe God is the Universe. I believe he is everything. I believe he is you and me. I believe he is love. I agree that many use him as an insurance policy. I agree that he is a way to help people deal with their pathetic lives. I agree that faith in God makes him real. But i also believe that he exists without us needing to believe in him. I agree that the church misrepresents him and uses him to continue their judgmental, power crazy agendas. i think you all are right. 060924

Christ without the cross You niggas. (I am black so this is not a racist statement). Religion has a purpose. People's faith in it have given them the power to rise above their flaws and weaknesses. It is a shame that we do not realize what the message of Christ was. he did not come to tell people that he was the only way, the only truth, and the only life. He came to provide a need that we thought we needed. We needed a guide to get us where we needed to be so he came along and became the guide we thought we needed. his message was not that he was holier than thou and he was the only one who could come to God and grow in perfect love. he came to show it was possible. Now, this dafreman fellow is a cool cat. Speaking of cats did anyone see my cat tonya. God stole her from me. Anyways, you niggas need to stop moping and wining about God not being there. God gives you what you want. He will give you the experience of him being absent. In fact, all the things in your life happen and are hurtful because of choice. Free choice. You choose for your feelings to be hurt, conciously or unconciously. Even death depending on your perspective can be a joyful thing. Can you imagine perfect joy. That is what is waiting for you after death. Trust me i have been there. of course, since God would not choose it for you, or force it on you, you have to choose it for yourself. Alright homies, here is some decent advice. Sow some positivity in your damn lives and be self centered. only focus on what you are doing. Follow your heart always and tell the complete truth about everything. Let every action be the direct representation of who you want to be. Let everything be a declaration of Who YOU ARE. Grow in Love. Enjoy everything because everything is a gift of God. Love everything. Love sex. Love life. Love love. And get up off your ass and be a light unto the world. We are all one. Let start acting like it. Just a suggestion. You still have free choice. 060924

pastorfkb What are you doing?
Just listening.
Why?
Knowing that God will speak.
Where?
In my heart.
When?
In the instant I stop thinking.


Who are you that God would speak to you?
His servant
Hungry, thirsty and listening.
His child
Loved, desired and well fed.
