People can look beyond what is comfortable for them. Understand that not everything is black and white
That goes both ways, friend.
Unplug, lay off any substances. Take walks. Meditate. At least a month. Get to know the you before you were born (the indomable peace).
Dry champagne is a nice champagne.
Hope that helps.
Yes, and?
And brut is a nice champagne.
I was skeptical - really skeptical. Then I read the article and cheered. Thank you.
Joke is on them; rapture and ascension are internal processes, not external.
Thanks so much for this share, OP. A veritable smorgasbord of food for thought, although a good portion gives vapors and indigestion.
Sometimes this kind of people sounds like they believe in the Bible and prophecies as impersonal laws of nature, and not in an intelligent creator of any sort.
Kind of. If a supreme being set into motion certain universal laws and always thwarted them for the benefit of this or that, one or group, the laws would be arbitrary, thus pointless. It’s up to us to let the pressures d/evolve us according to the idea of (a limited by circumstances and variables) somewhat free will. Some believers consider the most ignorant and slavish among ourselves closer to God than the most refined with the most spiritual knowledge and/or means. Iow it’s not the means but how they are utilized.
It’s reciprocal from the Jewish religious nutters.
I think they are actively trying to make the end times prophecy happen
They are, here and abroad. Zionists extreme extremists are trying to genetically engineer the perfect calf to sacrifice on the Temple Dome, in Israel. Christian extreme extremists in the US fund them.
Yes, that’s right. I’m glad it prompted you to look for yourself, rather than dismiss out of hand. That shows something special.
ETA; there are also mudras. These religions are more closely related than it seems at a glance.
I believe that’s some sort of religious Jewish blessing. Idk where I got that idea, maybe Lemmy.
What if the big thing that happens turns out to be great?
Maybe, I can’t remember. I don’t seem to recall it having advert execs but I don’t remember the rest of the story either. It was a long time ago. I remember the lesson, though.
Guess what? I’m not so sure he existed either. He existed in the gospels though. The same place the women who supported him did.
Eta I can find fault with Osiris and Isis being siblings and spouses too but I don’t. It’s really not the point of the hero’s journey and that was the cultural context at the time the myth was born. We evolve.
It’s interesting you assert Jesus ministered for free, rejected what I said as lacking verification. We all pick and choose based on our personal peculiarities, mine having been finding more books that were excluded and relating that information towards parables describing the hero’s journey in yet another way. I’m not finished learning yet hence I leave aside what I’ve not yet delved into. I’m curious as to why you would accept he ministered for free and reject women supported him?
When the world ends, collect your things, you’re coming with me…
Yeah it’s a game of telephone millennia old. I don’t think it’s too big an ask to meet the universe halfway. Do what you can with what you’ve got, the rest is up to God/the universe/luck or what have you.
I always said God doesn’t need your money. His kids do. And that’s all of us who aren’t out living a Walden lifestyle, relying on bartering… Oh wait, barter is a cumbersome way of exchange, so where goods and services are little fragments of God, too. Or the universe. Or luck.
The magic is doing the work, friend, not painting roses red.
