All attempts to commune with god are noble and worth protecting

Religions may be completely controlled but the general theme of honoring god and treating life as sacred is something we cannot afford to lose in our society.

“Internally we have been with god, in god, and immersed in nothing but god” -Bhagavad Gita

We cannot allow the secular movement to just sweep all religious practice under the rug and outlaw the freedom to practice one’s religion.

“Allah never changes the condition of a people unless they strive to change themselves” -Quran 13:11

There have been countless wars and crimes committed in the name of god throughout our history. It’s such a tragedy, but it makes sense. What could be more important to knowing the truth of god? What could be more intoxicating or inspiring? It makes sense to fight over it, not that I am condoning their actions, I at least understand them.

In our present time, the belief in god is being attacked. Nearly everyone I talk to claims to have faith but does not embody their own beliefs. They have been fed a cookie cutter version of faith. They have lost sight of the miracle and wonder of nature. The occult mysteries were meant for all mankind. A warm light for all of us to share. Yet, they were stolen by wicked men who sold themselves to Satan’s kingdom.

We were promised a paradise. We all deserve to live in that heaven.

Do not sell yourself short.

Do not listen to naysayers and dogmatic liars who say “all of us are flesh robots or meat suits” “humanity is a curse upon the earth” “There’s no proof for god or anything supernatural”

They are mistaken.

Everything is a miracle

“‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10 your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation,[a] but deliver us from the evil one.” -The Lord’s Prayer

Lol *triggered

"Mommy, I don't like this on my plate, take it off now!"

Like for real, who just goes around all day complaining about the content here? This is supppsed to be a free thinking forum.. it’s nof like what I was saying was nonsensical. I’m saying I think there’s an attempt to discredit god. That’s a conspiracy! Lol

People

Normies who came in after the "election"... Sigh...

supppsed

Ppp > 666

666 is the number of the Beast

You're secretly worshipping the devil

Oh wait no, you're a delusional fucking gay retard with AIDS you fucking retard.

"Where's muh safespace?! I've just suffered a microagression! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

Apparently a post that you disagree with. Get over it.

God is a concept we do not need.

What if I told you we were all gods?

What if I told you only God alone exists, nothing else?

I would see the truth in that.

How do you see it when you look at whatever you look, that you are seeing the face of God?

Knowing that, I try my best to treat every experience in life and every living being I encounter with the utmost respect and dignity.

Thats great, but there is a difference between knowing and experiencing. Its possible to dissolve ones sense of separate self into the one self of existence, so that you experience creation as your own self in the same way you experience your body as yourself.

Why should anyone believe you know that to be true?

Well I’ve spent a lot of time studying. No one’s making you believe me lol. Do whatever you want.

Amen.

We are creators for the Creator(s) created us.

“‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10 your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 11 Give us today our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation,[a] but deliver us from the evil one.” -The Lord’s Prayer

Eh, that's not the one I learned. Here is the one I was taught:

Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name; Thy kingdom come Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses As we forgive those who trespass against us; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For the Kingdom, the power, and glory is yours, now and forever. Amen.

I'm ex-Roman Catholic, though.

Anyways, I think you may be conflating spirituality, which religion. The former is good, the latter not so much, nor is Atheism, imo.

I'm now "spiritual" and have a bit of Slavic Paganism in me. I have no idea about all of this, but, one belief that I will go to the grave with, is, we are here for a reason and there was intelligent creation behind it. My soul will always live on, and it will reincarnate depending on if I've ascended or descended in the Astral realm.

Just my two cents. Good post, not sure why you are getting shit for it.. sigh..

I said that I’m the post. Religion is the problem, but that’s not god’s fault.

Saying "God" intrinsically implies religion, and furthermore, suggests one of the Abrahamic religions, because they are the offshoots of Monotheism.

I think it’s a beautiful thing, humanity craves this “higher meaning” and the word god is what we’ve used for millennia to describe it. What word(s) would you use to describe the force(s) that governs the universe?

and the word god is what we’ve used for millennia to describe it.

That's actually not true, until the invention of Monotheism (ie. Zoroastrianism). I don't want to go off on a tangent, but, that religion came from what we know as Persia (ie. Iran). Babylonians (Abrahamic Religions) are holding a grudge after these thousands of years... lol, why ;)... Plus, that only puts us after the Great Deluge. There were civilizations before the Great Deluge. Humans have been here in higher or lower consciousness/IQ for millions of years, imo.

What word(s) would you use to describe the force(s) that governs the universe?

I told you, Creator(s). I don't know if there is one or many, but I know in my soul, there is intelligent creation. Nature is too complex and beautiful to be all random, imo.

I get you but I think the term “god” or “gods” has been more used than that, say in Hindu or Chinese culture that goes back 5,000 years. In Sumer they had God’s but yeah once you go back that far the idea of gods/man becomes more murky.

I agree with you. I believe in the magical paradigm. Basically we’re all just fragments of the natural processes that have been happening in a cyclical manner for all “time”

Gods is contradictory to God. I hope you realize that, unless you want to go down the path of the religions of angels, demons, demi-gods, etc etc ;).

Lol I certainly don’t, already did (former black magcian speaking).

You seem a bit on the fence about things, then...

I like the fence, keeps my options open

I'm ex-Roman Catholic, though.

Eh, hem.

PATER noster, qui es in cœlis; sanctificatur nomen tuum: Adveniat regnum tuum; fiat voluntas tua,

sicut in cœlo, et in terra. Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie: Et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris: et ne nos inducas in tentationem: sed libera nos a malo.

Ojcze nasz, któryś jest w niebie święć się imię Twoje; przyjdź królestwo Twoje; bądź wola twoja, jako w niebie tak i na ziemi. Chleba naszego powszedniego daj nam dzisiaj i dopuść nam nasze winy, jako i my odpuszczamy naszym winowajcom. I nie wódź nas na pokuszenie, ale nas zbaw ode złego. Amen

I also knew Regina Coeli back in the day along with a few hymns in German like Stille Nacht. It was pretty common to learn mass in different languages 50 years ago.

I was brought up in Polish and Latin mass. Very little of my teachings were actually in English. I'm not in my fifties, but, I know what you are talking about, via my family connections and up bringing. Anyways, cheers :)

I went to a few Polish churches back in the day but we ended up in a German church for most of my upbringing. Irony, eh?

Makes sense. Germans love Polish women and culture, when they are not being delusional. I can say that, because I have Polish and Germanic ancestry. Lets just say, times at my Polish families house during the holidays was more fun, and we are better looking... lmao...

You expect people who barely invented words to explain everything perfectly. Religion is the most important metaphor, it is required for growth.

We were promised a paradise. We all deserve to live in that heaven.

Fuck off. You were given life. You owe this world growth that leads to growth.

The only religion that is the problem is the one that worships decay, wait I mean ya way.

Why so aggressive

You use God like a magic word. They are not all the same, and this is how a word becomes a weapon.

I’m not saying they’re all the same, rather, that the act of giving honor to a/the god(s) is a sacrament worth protecting

And I am saying the ambiguity in that allows for worship of decay. That is how you get the dark ages.

So what exactly would you have us do? Force everyone to worship the same god? That is what brought about the dark ages.

Lol. You need to review your history.

I’m a history teacher..

Literally Rome having switched to Christianity and the tension it caused is what weakened the empire enough to allow the barbarians to flood in, thus beginning the dark ages. That’s a pretty well accepted fact.

I’m a history teacher

my history teachers taught me the holocaust happened, I'm sure you are no more informed then they were.

multiculturalism and degeneracy killed rome, like greece. The christian myth would have been the only way to save it, the same way it was used to establish western civilization with the first inquisition.

This of course all depends on whether or not you think the dark ages actually happened, but I'm sure you are familiar with the new chronology.

I try my best to cultivate a healthy skepticism in my students without overtly exposing them to conspiracies.

God hates anything to do with occult wisdom.

He literally said that the enlightenment the devil promised was forbidden.

He also said to who asked for wisdom would recieve it, but occultism stuff is something different. He taught his word was the truth, and wisdom of the world was foolishness.

Also we are less then God,we are not the same as him...he is greater. The Bible talks about being one with him, because God made a way through that through Christ. He never said eternal life is for everyone, quite the opposite. We don't just "deserve" it.

I disagree. Not to say that we are all in a state of observing, but I do not think there is a great a disconnect between man and the Creator as the Bible describes. If you couldn’t tell I was referring to several religious philosophies. I was saying they all have merit even if none of them are objecively true

Meanwhile Trump basically bans Muslims from entering the United States.

Dear God

Fuck you

Sincerely, a rotting mortal in your little play-pen

Love you too

I find the metaphor of the garden to mean that we were given a paradise, and rejected it to become gods ourselves. Though we are of the divine, we're the ones who paved this place.

No one believes Im the one true God.

Knowing that, I try my best to treat every experience in life and every living being I encounter with the utmost respect and dignity.

Love you too
