Do You Know Why You Don't Believe? (beliefs, experience, atheist)

How about starting a topic on a truly evolutionary idea for once? And no, I don't consider debating how people interpret the word "mystic" or "revelation" to be an evolutionary idea. I'm am so ready to hear something out of you besides criticism. Enter the arena and quit tossing insults from the sidelines.

I personally think that Ymir gives much colour and insight and very much wisdom to every discussion he enters. (except maybe the joke/game threads ) And I hope people view me the same.

On a side note, interpretations of words are very important to any debate. We need to be on a level playing field with regards to word meanings to get anywhere in any debate. Therefore, the terms “mystic” and “revelation” and “realisation” are highly important.

Weakness? Sigh... Who are you trying to kid? Your little remote viewing "pretty colors" meditation sessions aren't anywhere close to tapping into the God/Soul frequency.

Oh, I seriously beg to differ on this point. I agree with a few people on here who think that in actual fact it could very well be the opposite way around, that YOU aren’t nearly as close as he is. But, we are all entitled to opinion and our respective perspectives dictate those

(Anyone else notice the similarity between “respective” and “perspective”!? Intriguing… )

Celestine Prophecy? Hehe, can't become invisible then huh? You're not as far along as you think you are.

So, you don't know who the 11:11 are? As I said, you're not as far along as you think you are. You may very well be able to see things but you haven't figured out what you are seeing. You don't know how the universe works unless your scientists explain it to you and they're simply not good enough yet. And no, I won't give you the answer. You haven't earned it.

Oh great one, how can we ever be worthy of your answer? (Ok, I know, bad joke, but it had to be said! )

But on a serious note, for some people the perception is that things are the opposite way around! Maybe you don’t realize how far along Ymir is!

But again, that is merely opinion, I guess…

You're a friend of the family? In service to who?

I have a dim view of humans? You're damn right I do. You are considered the most important biological achievement in the universe simply because the veil separating you from God is the more dense and impenetrable than any other species.

What this means is you have almost complete free will. It also means that selfishness pervades every decision you make. You are the most selfish beings ever created. You are useless to the rest of the universe. You pollute and destroy your own world and your own kind in previously unheard of numbers. You kill life to extinction. You spread dangerous neutrons into space that others have to deal with.

“you” is referring to…..?

Sounds like you are referring to Humanity. Why do you not include yourself in this group? Are you not human? What am I missing?

Other beings see themselves as equals and join together quite readily to benefit their entire species and world. Other species surround their homes with gardens. You lie to your children and tell them "Community College is good enough for you" just so you can upgrade to a bigger SUV then dump the oil in the backyard. God may favor you the most but no one else does

I don’t understand where you draw all this from.

Why am I annoyed by you? EDIT: Hmm, seems I can't tell you what I really think of you because one of the mods is on my case. Funny, seems others can say whatever they want about me though. You have no idea how hard it is for me to back down from a fight...

And that is sometimes the most enjoyable part

But from my side of the screen it looks like you’re actually creating a fight here, where no-one seeks one. A debate, perhaps, but no fight. I like to think much of humanity is above fights.

I might agree with some of this. But then I stood back and thought about it (on Ymir’s advice!!! ) and why I was getting my hackles up, but I realise that I can be a better person than to bite back.

Normally I try not to be too rude! I don't feel good that my temper got the better of me this morning!

That's ok Tangnefedd, I wasn't trying to put you on the spot, but I realise now my wording probably wasn't the best!

What I really was trying to say, was that I took Ymir's advice to think about my emotions and why I am feeling a certain way, and it paid off this time because else I would have ripped right into him

Although I should have controlled my temper a bit better, I let the post stand because I don't feel that guilty!

And you are?

You've done what noteworthy things?

You've provided us with what wisdom?

SU, I wouldn't presume to offer words of advice to anyone, unlike some I could mention!

How could you, you've never felt guilty for anything in your life. It's all about you, even when you recklessly harm another your only concern is how you are going to get out of the situation.

Unlike you . . . who has come down from On High to enlighten us all with the One Truth for everyone . . . And anyone who doesn't agree with it? They are somehow are the ones with the ego problem!? You're fast becoming a caricature of yourself.
