An open apology

[dazed&fallen]

And the fact that she found it in the church....?

People claim that a church is not the building but the people inside.

It needn't be a Christian group. Any group can form this sort of warm static when they set their minds to it.

 

[dazed&fallen]

Posters too? Awesome! Public forum, remember?

Alright you got me. You seem like a man of the world. A hard rugged type character. What do you do for a living then?

What you feel is a pooling of emotional energy that manifests itself through worship and sublime expression.

You needn't be in church to feel this. Any group will suffice.

You're right, I don't need to go to church to feel this. Actually I get this feeling more from music than I do anywhere else. But that's another discussion.

Oh well. That's a pretty lucrative industry as I understand. Find any yet? Good luck with that.

Yup, Psy seems to be getting there. Constructing coherent sentences is a key factor in the decision. And being grandiloquent is not.

You mean effeminate? Art tends to do that to you Bucko. My sentence structure is not the issue and you know it.

Nope, grandiloquent. Bucko.

You get paid for that? Wow, do they have any openings?

 

[dazed&fallen]

Nope, grandiloquent. Bucko.

Touche, Maybe if you're a bumpkin.

Exactly! Now you're gettin it!

You're assuming too much about yourself. I got it a long time ago.

So, to summarize this thread...

You believe that irrational people need to open their eyes, while you are irrational.

And you believe that people should believe in irrational things, so long as they are not being told what to irrationally believe in?

How much is too much? Perhaps there are things you don't know, that i do. It's a possibility at least.

I highly doubt you have the slightest idea when she "got it".

Bucko.

You oversimplify. I think churches and bibles are too narrow to contain the phenomenon that is God. That's why people kill each other. Everyone thinks their way is the only way. Kapeesh?

Did I teach you a new word? It has a nice ring to it doesn't it?

What is one thing that you believe should be added to the bible to better contain the phenomenon that is god?

 

[Gwydion]

Or, better yet, quit wasting your time on a public forum and due what Luther did and make a few changes to the bible and create your own religion branch.

 

[dazed&fallen]

The Gospel of Thomas would be a start but then people would just claims THAT was the infallible word of God.

People are sheepish like that. They don't like to think for themselves much.
