The English Biblical terms translated as "sin" or "syn" from the Biblical Greek and Jewish terms sometimes originate from words in the latter languages denoting the act or state of missing the mark; the original sense of New Testament Greek ἁμαρτία hamartia "sin", is failure, being in error, missing the mark
The term hamartia derives from the Greek ἁμαρτία, from ἁμαρτάνειν hamartánein, which means "to miss the mark" or "to err". It is most often associated with Greek tragedy, although it is also used in Christian theology. Hamartia as it pertains to dramatic literature was first used by Aristotle in his Poetics.
this reality IS a training ground

Jinn are not a strictly Islamic concept; rather, they may represent pagan beliefs integrated into Islam.[3] Since jinn are not inevitably evil (nor good), Islam was able to adapt spirits from other religions during its expansion.[4]
Besides the jinn, Islam acknowledges the existence of demons (Shayāṭīn). The lines between demons and jinn are blurred, since malevolent jinn are also called shayāṭīn.[5][6] However both Islam and non-Islamic scholarship generally distinguishes between angels, jinn and demons (shayāṭīn) as three different types of spiritual entities in Islamic traditions.

But, this reality IS a training ground to test the acceptable social standards of us. Satan delivers the test, and god supplies wisdom if you do not break the seven deadly sins. This reality may not be real at all, our ability to find evidence it is not real is blocked from within the program. The authors or others, called Angels or Gins by some, are the ones that look over the reality. What happens if we flunk? I do not think they would allow us to ruin the really society or they may just use us as mindless slaves to fuel what their society needs. They could take all the energy of the spirit and use it to fuel this programs needs.
We may be able to find the truth when we exit this realm that we are in. When we die.
social standards[/quote]: U know; that could be used against us in some way or another.
Judge every WORD that you speak from your True heart and let the Universal God judge that.

There is no sin - its the name of a moon goddess - we were made perfect otherwise how could the pretender Jehovah claim he didnt see us in the Garden?
sin
Nothing serious about "sin", just missing the mark - hence we strive for perfection or completion.
Growing up in a Greek household, its no big deal - just means "made a mistake"

those images we have of hell, horns, endless fire, were 1st put forward from Dantes Inferno.
If anything fire cleanses, refer to Daniel in the OT

Can we ever approach the Monad?
I dont fear any of these pretenders or Tartarus.
I'm heading for the golden light not the white light ( Reincarnation trap ) in the tunnel.

Not Christian at all so I can't really throw my 2 cents in on that train of thought...
However, there are a myriad of religions (mine included) that see this mortal form that we currently occupy as a transient one, that we are more than merely the sum of our parts and there is something at the end that transcends mortality.
Be this place being a stopping point where we can rise (or lower) ourselves for the next go-around, or just our larval stage.
I think it's either going to be fun to find out or it won't matter.
So at least live this life at its fullest.
S&F... the story made me think.
there are a myriad of religions

Question: Have any recent dreams placed you in Heaven and only Heaven ? Or have they simply positioned you into an "Upgraded" status fighting for the Greater Good ?

So yes, there was somewhere back in time a starting place to all of these and it got spun off, many times.

What dreams have you been having?

Good job mate You're no newbie to me. You've been longer on this site than me.

Lol. Managing to survive this long under a constant barrage from programmed MIA trolls is a miracle. i guess some members are so laid back that they can tolerate anything a troll throws at them trying to provoke the member to retaliate and hence get banned.
Keep on Fighting, keep on Surviving to the last second.
1) what happened to the name Mother Gaia ?
2) You do know that your "pretender" Jehovah, is a bit peeved off right now after reading your statement ?
You know that many people will hate you because this "made a mistake" has resulted in the death of many.
Endless fire & Dantes Inferno go hand-in-hand with Shaitan djinn and the fire world in the film Constantine. i guess Shaitan jinn are basically fire & air elementals that naturally hate humans because they are the opposite. Fire hates water and air hates earth. What was Adam constructed with ? Earth & Water (clay). Fires of Purification. Maybe some WEAK fallen angels can be purified when the flames of antimatter cleanse them.
Ninhursag also appears in The Atrahasis where she fashions humans out of clay mixed with the flesh, blood, and intelligence of one of the gods who sacrifices himself for the good of the many. The Atrahasis also gives Enki as the creator of humans who devises them as a means to relieve the gods of the burden of work. In this myth, when the great flood is released on the world by Enlil and humanity is destroyed, all the gods mourn but Ninhursag is specifically mentioned crying for the death of her children.

I think pre Adamic man was was not allowed to breed ( Enkis servants )
Then the Adamu were given the power to procreate ( eating of the Tree in Eden )
