Wow... you didnt even answer my questions or acknowledge my points...

The creator is a english word that probably has nothing to do with the original meaning of god...

I am sure you have heard that when the bible was translated the word god's was changed to singular...

I am not sure how you can say that oneness or the universal center of energy is not also related to what the metaphorical meaning of the bible says.

here is a nice poem about religion

Opiate by: Tool

Choices always were a problem for you.
What you need is someone strong to guide you.
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow,
what you need is someone strong to use you..
like me,
like me.

If you want to get your soul to heaven,
trust in me .
Don't judge or question.
You are broken now ,
but faith can heal you.
Just do everything I tell you to do.
Deaf and blind and dumb and born to follow.
Let me lay my holy hand upon you.

My Gods will
becomes me.
When he speaks out,
he speaks through me.
He has needs
like I do.
We both want
to rape you.

Jesus Christ, why don't you come save my life.
Open my eyes and blind me with your light
and your lies.

My wife (who is Chinese) studied Confucianism all her life and will be the first to tell you this. She will also tell you that Chinese philosophies rarely (if ever) touch on the Creator. Strangely, her Confucianism has also led her to the bible.

Talk to me when you learn something you didn't read from someone else with an agenda.

Just thought I would inject this here,

From another thread.

Quote:

The greatest matter of concern for today is survival of what is coming. Everyone "knows"
something major is about to happen to our world. Yes, the bible has given advanced
warning of what is about to occur. The bible also tells us what we must do to prepare
ourselves for what is about to happen. Those of us that have read and understand what
the bible has to say when it comes to our future also know what we will be doing after the
calamity. We will spend seven months picking up bones, but will spend several years
getting rid of weapons.

I think you showed good restraint Arcora.

Orion Morris · 10-29-2008, 06:36 PM

Ya for sure, acora....

you didnt really offend me and you didnt have an outburst..

I wasnt stalking you... I just think you have one of those personalities that is similar to mine so we clash sometimes...

TranceAm · 10-29-2008, 10:52 PM

Wow, There is a lot to learn in the last few posts... (Edit ahum, from a page back.. (woops.) )

If we could only get our "wise" leaders to walk this world with such wisdom.

(Ok back to reading again.. But I felt like handing out some flowers.) :-)

That is pretty funny.. I guess you got me there...

Honestly I just believe that it is all part of the same thing...
Good cannot exhist without bad...
life with out death...
up without down...

We are all a piece of the creator.. or god... the universe.. pick your underachieving word and apply it to the meaning of your choice...

I just know that if anybody ever thinks that their religion or belief is the complete truth and the other ones are not... or even less valid... then they are usually the ones who are wrong.
