Why Choose of Mediocrity?

[A Vestigial Mote]

a topic you won't hear elsewhere

there are billions of spirits on this earth

why choose of mediocrity?
when the very best is at hand to choose from

So, are you saying that I have my choice among the billions of spirits on Earth? And that I don't have to choose the mediocre ones? Nice. Where do I sign up?

If that's not what you're saying, then your first statement is correct... I wouldn't expect to hear this topic elsewhere... your brand of tripping over your own enigmatic gobbledygook is quite singular.

 

[shunyadragon]

it seems then your denial is mediocre

I believe your in denial of the problem that there are many people who sincerely and strongly believe their claim is true and yours is false.

True. I would assume thats were parents would get the most help is through their faith. I live alone and sometimes I call The Church when I need food. I called a baptist church I once visited and they said they only help people who go to their church. They didnt have the funding. Catholic Churches as a whole have funding but I was fortunate to be in one the biggest churches in virginia. They arent as particular in who they give food. Spiritual support they are. Universalist Church near me gives out food too. The Church also has parent help services and a lot of which is volunteer.

Also, you can try St. Vincent de Paul if you haven't already. They might help.

Didnt know you knew about them Yeah. They help me out a lot. I probably ask no more than twice a edit...twice a year. I guess The Church allots a budget or its based on donations.

for your stance to be correct.....

all is mediocrity
all ends in dust
nothing greater than yourself

 

[LuisDantas]

Uh, whose and which choice does the OP refer to?

Anyone?

 

[Shadow Wolf]

and you assume God would not know?

I don't assume to know if there is a god or not, let alone what features and attributes this entity may have.

The only thing that assertions of 'ALL' conclude is the assertions of 'ALL' are always false, because of human fallibility, and the weakness of such egocentric claims of humans.

We all remain fallible humans regardless of whether . . .

all is mediocrity
all ends in dust

actually the following applies to your problematic assertion and claim.

nothing greater than yourself

 

[DavidFirth]

Didnt know you knew about them Yeah. They help me out a lot. I probably ask no more than twice a month. I guess The Church allots a budget or its based on donations.

If people hadn't helped me when I needed it I would be living on the street right now.

 

[Unveiled Artist]

Say that again. They even help paid my rent. Id never get into That situation again.

We all need help every now and then, it is nothing to be ashamed of.

Because it is okay to say "what I have is good enough" and "I am happy as I am." Nay, it is more than okay - it is a recipe for simple living and so that others may simply live.

What does mediocrity have to do with religion?

I don't understand the OP?

I suck at many many many things. I'm ok at some things. And I'm really really really good at a few things.

Is that ok?

I only choose the best because I deserve it.

Because it is okay to say "what I have is good enough" and "I am happy as I am."

sounds like the preamble of ...Job

It refers loosely.....to judgment day

Huh? Eh... nevermind.

 

[suncowiam]

Can you further explain how this refers to judgement day?

So mediocre is in term of morals?

 

[shunyadragon]

It refers loosely.....to judgment day

Possibly from this citation?

Revelation 3:16 - So, because you are lukewarm (mediocre), and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.

 

[Epic Beard Man]

Its hard for one person to take care of humanity. Multiple people lend a hand and humanity can follow whomever they connect. Polytheism gives choices. Monotheism does not.

Id say the best is having more than one spirit on the same level. One god is dicatorship. The former seem attractive because they can connect on different levels. The latter people fall behind because there is only one way to relate, and that method of relating may not be their learning style.

I disagree. I think one person is enough. Then again to be GOD and just to imagine is simply incomprehensible. Multiple deities independent from each other could be an issue.
