I am fine with what you say not conforming to my beliefs as long as you are not trying to force those beliefs onto others. I judge people based on actions alone and even there, I keep it simple. Ihave "distilled" my entire morality code to 3 points.
1) Don't harm self
2) Don't harm others
3) Don't be a deliberate douche
Beyond that, crack a cold one and enjoy the hell out of life!!! ;-)
Control is one of the petty things mankind holds so dear. Isn't that the real issue for so many?
I merely try to copy God since if one copies great intelligence, the outcomes are always better.
God isn't telling anyone what to believe. On the other hand, isn't that all religion does? Religion also uses fear , intimidation, and coercing tactics when can not get some to follow. This is not God.
Relax, Hell doesn't really exist. On the other hand, God returns our actions in time. This is not to punish. This is to teach one what those actions really mean. Some of what people choose can seem like Hell when it returns. Of course, those who have already learned that lesson wonder how others could choose it. For those of us who must watch, it is just a reminder of what the best answers really are.
Sounds with your 3 choices you are headed in the right direction.
How long did birds fly before mankind figured out how? That knowledge was around us all the time. God places knowledge around us all. It waits to be Discovered. I copy God when I place knowledge in the world or point someone in the right direction.
On their journey, it has always been the individual's choice on what choices and actions to take. Free choice, even if it is a wrong choice is part of God's system. I might point , however I will not interfere with God's system.
Through attempting to control others, some want everyone to conform to the very same. Little do they realize God gave everyone a different view to guaranty mankind a larger view than any one person could have. Diversity of views allows the entire picture to be seen. Diversity is a Strength.
The first thing that God pointed out to me is that mankind carries such a narrow view. I cry that. I work on mine everyday. All the secrets of God and the universe stare us all in the face. God is not hiding anything.
That's what I see. It's very clear!!
