3. Why is this religion of oneness the source of all others, i have seen more evidence of religions being born of superstitious circumstances or even from otherworldly creatures, truth is many people are lost because they dont want to believe one religion or another but they want to believe something, so they see this Oneness nonsense and think....
truth is it's such a vague belief that anyone could apply it to their life, its funny that so many sites that promote oneness claim that all the religious "prophets" were all just teaching oneness. What a scam seriously, i have seen evidence of Jesus' devotion to his Jewish roots in believing in one true god! (read the book - "the bible for people who hate the bible" part 2)

4.In what way are we all one, yes maybe we are all comprised of the same atoms and everything else is just an illusion, but it is a persistent one, how do you not know that this illusion is not a part of the reality, maybe we are all connected but so what? i havent felt it, i cannot see it, it doesnt affect my life,
i cant sit down meditate on how connected i am to everything and have all my debts and problems disappear, i will still feel pain and loss and suffering, everyone likes to talk about oneness but no one ever explains how it can be applied to my life today, no one shows proof of its effects in their lives
like if you were truly some master of oneness who has felt being one and has meditated for hours why are you on a conspiracy site posting about it, why not just sit there, meditate and know that everything will be alright, why are you trying to convince yourself (since we are all one) what you already know.

5.Love, love, love... ya its great, but seriously eternal and everlasting love??? what a load of nonsense seriously, prove to me where eternal love has won out over everything else,
hate and anger is a part of us, dominance is in our nature, but no we humans have to make up some belief about love to justify our wrongdoings and delude us into thinking that evil will not win out in the end.

truth is if there was some sort of consciousness or power in the universe it wouldnt chose between good and evil which are human contructions of cultural and religious bias, or love and hate which are simply programmed circumstances for our species planetary development.
ill admit that there are many mysteries and ancient wisdom/knowledge in the world, but i have extremely high doubts as to oneness and eternal love being the main components of our universal existence.

6. As far as i am concerned no one knows absolute truth, thats why i hate it when people come on to a thread and claim oneness and eternal love as if it was an obvious truth of the world that i was stupid not to figure out,
i would appreciate it more if these people came on stated their belief in a way that confirms that it is a theory and not absolute truth and explain in a thorough and interesting way how it applies to the topic at hand.
my main issue is that many threads i see are either about or have some posters who push this "law of one" or "oneness" ideology,
truth is if there was some sort of consciousness or power in the universe it wouldnt chose between good and evil which are human contructions of cultural and religious bias, or love and hate which are simply programmed circumstances for our species planetary development.
If one seeks balance in all things, wouldn't one let both sides rule equally? Choosing one side or another is not balance.

The above has to be addressed because it is the basis of why you do not feel the oneness. All of the above is about ego. Once you rid yourself of ego the separation from the divine will fade.
Ego will fight tooth and nail for its continued existence.
- Albert Einstein
A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
Wow...dude...that is my quote of the month.
Destruction is easy, any child can destroy. If you seek a true challenge, try creating something instead.

As for oneness - no way - humans have never been into that.
As for eternal love - maybe. Not humans together, obviously,
Humans have always hated, always waged wars, always been jealous and envious, always lied, always not loved their neighbour, and broken all the laws laid down in the bible.
Finally If! we are one then my lust for afterlife revenge is as valid as your mercenary lust for spiritual progression.

Why is everybody going on about "Unconditonal Love" once you leave behind all duality??
When I meditate, I just let go of all the questioning. I (try to) ignore the conscious mind into forcing me to choose. I just become one with the moment and let go of duality.
But here's the thing. Love is not the term I would use to describe that which remains (It's ludicrous to try and define that which remains, but for arguments sake). If anything I would say that, afterwards, I would explain that feeling that remained more as a feeling of peace. Not love.
Maybe I am doing something wrong but I cannot see how "love" would not have a counterpart in terms of duality. (personally I think it's anger. (not hate)).
