What I got from all that is you'd prefer feeling good over actually knowing the truth. Who cares if it's a lie, as long as it's a comfortable one? This is a point I have been making again and again, and you have proven it. All you want is to feel good about life, whatever lies you have to tell yourself to achieve that. It's pathetic. What's the point to truth at all? You don't serve the truth, you serve yourself.
Of all the Christians, the ones I pity the most are those who choose to lie to themselves for the sake of themselves. At least there is noble intent in lying for the sake of the world.edit on 21-5-2013 by AfterInfinity because: (no reason given)

I prefer an equal relationship. Otherwise, one will always be favored over the other, inviting jealousy and enmity. The scales would tip and fall over, destroying the relationship in the end. The flow must be balanced to maintain continuity and preserve harmony.
Of course, some are willing to sacrifice harmony for their own personal ascension, aren't they? Some would gladly kill their people to ensure their own rule...shed the blood of their own country to secure the throne and crown. Some have a greater appreciation for worship than they ever had for the sanctity of life and liberty.edit on 21-5-2013 by AfterInfinity because: (no reason given)

Because I know that I exist.You said "We are god"

What kind of God would I be if I was alone?
What kind of God could We be if We were alone?
Excuse me if i may direct your attention to the holy trinity... Father, Son, Holy Spirit
If you are that intellectually superior AND honest with yourself
you will admit that the ONLY thing that means anything on earth
is FAITH in God and HOPE in the resurrection and life eternal.
faith and belief are things we have in common.
you look at the world and place your faith and belief in "No God"
that is your answer for and to all your internal anguish that you have.
I look at the world and place my faith and belief in "Know God"
that is my answer for and to all the internal anguist that I have.

No. Your way is NOT the only way.

I sometimes think the point is to be without GOD. and invent it within yourselves. The "we is the "and" "us" factor. We are the creators of OURSELVES, and for one reason or another fail to see the GOD within US. WE ARE IT. GOD INCARNATE. THE CHILDREN the true expression of God IN ITS OWN UNCERTAINTY.
Exactly! This is spiritual independence. You use the idea of "God" to discover your own potential. The more you begin to discover your own power to bring your desires to life, the more you learn about what is necessary and what is not necessary, what is real and what is not real, and the more you become your own god. Teach a man to fish...

You do know you exist. We are God expression; there is so we without you no IT and or I. You are not alone you have me and I am God trying to explain to you I EXIST. If a lonely God you would not EXIST because KNOW one would not recognize you as FORMULATED (as a perfect Unicorn). ME TOO. We too as God, we would at least give the Sun a NAME.

God does not make himself clear by mentally convincing someone He exists.......
He does not do that that way, He moulds the persons awareness so the person is without doubt of His existence, yet there are fools who deny God in their heart.
That was with proof, they chose not to believe. That is kind of weird actually.
Thats like claiming a blue ball green when you see it.
Hence, 'fool'. Haha, in fact it's quite humoristic. I think I don't have anything against fools. They are my friends!
How could I be so deceived. ... blaah

Oh...I can smell the schizos in this thread...you can slap these people full tilt dans la bouche...show them how (with little diagrams) they have walked right past the information desk...but they will swear black and blue it was a food kiosk...sit them down, hand the 'natives' the photographic evidence, phonograph wax roll (scratched beyond repair!)...demonstrate how thier eyes have played tricks on them, third eye blind, first 'I' lame...lovingly show them that it really isn't a pipe (ceci n'est pas une pipe)...and still...God is something else other than us, to them...Takes a special type of origami mind to continue to fold that paper, over and over again...Å99

If anyone is blind, it is you. You fail to appreciate imperfection. You fail to appreciate what you have been given in your very birth. You fail to appreciate ANYTHING that doesn't hand life to you on a silver platter. And that makes you weaker than the most grievous sinner on Earth. You wanna know why? Because they know how to make their own dreams happen. They have established independence. And they don't need to kiss toes in order to be happy. They make their own happiness. They are their own miracle.
And if you condemn them for that, it's only because you have failed to share in their success.

No. I place my KNOWLEDGE in the fact that I can be everything I need. I want meaning? I Give myself meaning. I have done it for everything else. I want hope? I Give myself a reason to hope. I have done it with everything else. I want life? Then I find a reason and way to live. Everything I have given myself has been the product of my imagination and my two hands.
I believe in INDEPENDENCE. Independence of the human spirit.
