Well I must admit that your being consistent.
I'd still disagree, some people are born evil, it's the whole nature Vs nurture argument, which side of the fence you sit on is up to you but personally I'd say that a person's behavior, mindset and actions are a combination of the two.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not denying the fact that certain things in peoples lives affect their personality but its a scientifically proven fact that some people are more likely to turn out a certain way than others.
Just something that may interest you...
I just lately enjoyed a documentary (aired on the Discovery channel or History not too sure) on killer psychopaths where the gentleman doing the research discovered, by an MRI of his brain, that he is in fact a psychopath himself!!
This caused quite the stir as the man is considered a wonderful, loving, caring family man. He has always been attracted to and interested in why psychopaths are the way they are.
He however was raised in a huge loving family that cherished and taught their youngsters with love and proper direction.
Can't for the life of me remember the name of the doc though :/

Hello brother, I loved your message.
I really don't understand so much anger in some replies. If I were you, I wouldn't reply to these, because you're will be feeding negative energy. Just let them write whatever they wish.... don't try to convince them, because they will stick to it and never let down.
It is just someone trying to form some cult like so many on youtube thinking they are some Pleiadian to help one another. I'd like the message but sadly it has been ruined by these cults.

Keep up the message!! ...I'll join your cult

IAmIAM, So if you follow Christ's teachings or believe in them, do you believe Christ died for my sin, your sin and everybody else's sin?
Do you have your heretic gun ready?
Christ died on the cross to teach what sin was.
Sin is not having unconditional love. If his followers loved him as much as he loved them, they would not have let him be crucified. He said they could not harm another in his defense. He never said they could not die in his defense. If they loved him, they could have formed a circle around him and forced the Romans to slay them all to get to them, a lesson they leaned FROM his death on the cross. Hence, afterwards they were beaten, tortured, imprisoned, and fed to lions, but would not harm a soul.
hmmm... interesting interpretation! I'm going to ponder on whether there is any truth in it for me ...
However I must make note that when Peter tried to attack the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear Christ said:
John 18:11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up they sword into the sheath: The cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
Then he proceeded to heal the man's ear...
Many "men of God" spoke of the demise of "the Christ" and how it would come about... If it did not happen this way, as the Bible foretold, then all the "prophesy" wouldn't have "been" prophesy at all. Just a bunch of people running at the mouth telling fictional stories.
Therefore, (in my own humble interpretation) what happened, happened to prove that these "men of God" were speaking truths. And this WAS the Christ.
Just more to ponder

Don't fall for this guy, I implore you.
"Through peace he [antichrist] will destroy the world"
Not saying the OP is necessarily the antichrist, just that he exhibits the requisite spirit of pride - and is seeking to place himself on a pedestal, as someone equal to, or more than God. Someone else tried that once - oh that's right, it was Lucifer/ Satan/ Beel'zebub.

The only problem is some people call themselves "Christians" and then there actions do what is against the teaching of Christ, which then gives Christians a bad rep.
I'm proud to award you your First-Ever ATS Star for that. (And a little surprised nobody else did it in 4.5 hours.) I've been saying the exact same thing for so long. "Love Everyone," I mean, c'mon, how hard is that?? Why do people seem to crave fighting others so much? They look for excuses to fight, even some Christians, it's ridiculous. It's like they've never read any of Christ's words... but what can be done? Changing their minds and hearts requires convincing them how wrong they are about a lot of their Biblical assumptions and preconditioning. Might as well try to convince Rush Limbaugh that Barack Obama is his long-lost brother.
Which he is.

If God is "omnipresent", than this would mean God is "The All". The universe would technically be "the kingdom of God".

I don't consider an existence where diseases are a fact, mutations are an occurrence, and the fact that you have to consume other living things such as plants or animals to live, heaven. I don't think this world was made as anything more than a place to learn what separation from God feels like. I am not pantheistic either. I don't love everyone and I don't love myself all that much either. I think the fact that we have desires that can't be met is suffering, and I also think that eliminating desire destroys what makes us human in the first place. I would rather get through this BS we call life on earth over with so I can go straight to the afterlife. I don't dream of building a better earth; in fact, I loathe physical existence and as long as that is what earth is about, I can't make myself like it.
My friend, I respect your view. I am saddened by it because this existence brings you pain, but I respect it.
Let me share my view.
I don't think I've ever cried so much...
So far IAMIAM I've loved EVERYTHING you have said / taught
Thank you!
...still reading like crazy to catch up with everyone!!
We have desease to show us that we need each other and to love each other to cure them.
We have hunger to show us that we need each other and to love each other to end it.
We have suffering to show us that we need each other and to love each other to relieve it.
We have desire to show us how wonderful this life is, more so when we share it with each other.
We are not separate from God unless we choose to be. If we choose to be, we will be because he gave us free will and respects that.
I see God when I watch children play, the joy in their voice, the love in their hearts.
I see God when I watch young couples embrace, the love in there eyes, the non-judgement in their hearts.
I saw God when my daughter was born, that pure innocent smile, those eyes that looked up to me totally trusting me to care for her and love her.
I see God in my dog who loves me unconditionally and waits for me to always return when I must leave.
I see God everywhere, even in the pain your separation from him is causing. I love you my friend. Open your eyes and see you are not without God. Open your heart and love, and he will tell you he never left your side.
With Love,
Your Brother

Sorry dude, I just don't feel love for any of it. I don't subscribe to pantheism either. I may feel the impulse to help others from time to time, but it is probably because I'm a hypocrite afraid of Hell or separation from the Light. If love is the only answer I've failed the exam because I just don't feel it.
No worries my friend. I have enough love to cover your share. I love you, and just had a good cry and talk with God for you. He will show you the way when you are ready. I have faith enough in that for both of us.
Be well my friend,
With Love,
Your Brother
Thank you for your kindness. I wish I could feel love but I just can't. I wish I was never born here, it's just not for me. Once again, thank you.

Maybe not the end, could be a new beginning, or both as every end has a new beginning. Considering the events of the shuttle program ending, which is something we would NOT do considering we wouldn't want other nations getting the upper hand in the space program UNLESS we had a better way, nothing here lately is adding up. Lets also consider NASA has been using the same shuttles for years now, with no advancement in tech...which is unlikely if you consider how fast the computer evolved along with other technology (i'm thinking it is a front that will soon no longer be needed). Then the sudden big search for new worlds, with much success with a recent find of a earth like world very nearby, they probably knew it was there for some time. Something is happening, either our gov is slowly letting us on to stuff they've known for years to "prepare" us for the truth, they are preparing for something big...possibly an evacuation, or both because they have no choice.

The real problem is not the Illuminati, Codex, or whatever other threat or conspiracy you could care to name.
The real problem is ordinary people who both believe and express the opinion that corporations should continue to be permitted to exist.

My friends, particularly the last few posters who riled up my inner hubris,
I have been a little on edge these past couple days. This has made me a little short on patience with those who decry a simple message of love. I am usually in a state of peace, but I recently had my heart crushed. While I am on this forum trying to shine a little love, and others are denouncing the message, a little Angel left this world because she simply found no love in it. My heart is broken over this poor girl, this innocent babe. My broken heart has only further strengthened my resolve to love all, that no more Angels come, and quickly fly away from the hate they found.
Please take some time to read what we are turning this world into. We, you, I can make a difference. Never stop loving everyone you meet. You never know which Angel is in need of it.

I think much, not everything but a great deal of what you claim is true.
However, there will actually be quite a few more "final warnings"....won't there?
