As I lay
shackled in all your Mire The stink of it Reeking insinuations About just How you really belong Oh, yes, I'm flailing only against my participation that's a good reason to slouch, laze about What could be you Reason your way on shaky absolutes the Best ones always seem to go...: 'Frost on misdeeds gone past Followed my misgivings home Even at the community Annex they soon found The Way Life lived on insipid edge You/They introduced me to Betray How I fought to gorge myself instead I could really seek no other manual of options left remaining with that reek, imprisoned in the Machinations of Bereft.' The Best ones serve to sway your mind about all that time, spent slurching for persuasions in all of us are half sunk in the muck Breathing heavily gagging on how pointless it is to count on Luck sinking steadily, it's a Mire of Certainty Panic in the mire, as I must remain. |

No lesson this time, no paltry idea to infuse
I sat back with a huff!, well, now what to do? Something has to fill the page.... Right! That's the way.....: Dreaming insolently in a forever frost Dreaming insolently, I want to be forever lost The forest inside is finally laced with ice the leaves tinkle enviously, the tune enticing me to unleash Fire & Life Flashing forth Smile So Snide, I say "Well, aren't you still alive?" Flashing it forth, " I see all those dirty dreams you try to hide." Insolent little dreams of Fire & Life Insolent little dreams causing all your strife The forest inside yearns for a burning desire The forest inside dreams of being alive in the Fire A stream gurgles somewhere, with all the moss and Cold A stream gurgling in there, how long before that gets Old? An envious wind invades, tinkling frost and ice covered leaves An envious wind invades,"I promise you, you'll never want to leave." And The Forest Inside has started to steam (take it however you want it to mean.) And an eybrow raises, "The Forest Inside is steaming?" (take it,however, you might want to have my meaning...) "So....", thoughts are racing, despairs dressed up, ready to play "So, you want to burn? Witness this despair, you'll be its display" Don't think the forest didn't know what was goin on up there, Don't think it, but after what it saw, "I don't think it cares" For those that haven't been following the rhyme, For those I'll now paint what happened in so little time: "You can see him up in the sky, a dark, terrible living Shade Across the valley,across the plains, a dirty, snide voice proclaimed: "Nihilistic Cold, INVADE!! Nihilistic Cold, I hold your secrets, now OBEY!!" The air hung with crystalline delight, The air stole the warmth with a burning bite Clouds frozen to the sky, Clouds frozen with the forest inside The trees are still there, dreaming of a burning sky, The trees are still there, they dream of burning all up inside...." |

I'm not up to date on the faux-pas of thread posting, so I consider it a lesson learned. i often can't tell when people are joking - i don't think you committed a faux pas at all, and there was nothing 'wrong' with your first post above; i think wux was just giving his personal answer to your later question, and in doing so gave good advice for getting a better response from people in the future. posting an op like yours is just fine, but you will lose some people. |

Religion is organized faith. A whole bunch of people agree to have a faith in some ideals. Everyone who wants to join them is asked to believe in those ideals. Those who reject the same ideals are expelled from the group. Some groups also ask their members not to believe in some other things. Thus, you "must" believe may in the scriptures, one or more deity, and that the instructions how to worship them will bring results. The "must not" believe things may include other gods, a world that is more than 7000 years old, and a round Earth. (This dogma changes its shape periodically, every few thousands of years.) I think we've proved without a doubt the earth is indeed round, well, it's a little squished at the poles... The actual shape is called an oblate spheroid, I believe. |

Faith is strong, but without several other parts to go along with it, it isn't the strongest it could be. I have never really believed strongly in any religion until recently. Even now I don't aspire to any one religion I've seen. I do make it a point to try to study as much as I can about both history, philosophy, and religion; taking bits from each that make sense to the way I view my own experience. I feel that living life, is the only real way to prove any belief system or part of one correct. Though no one religion I've seen so far is entirely correct. Or they all are. So I'd say Faith is stronger even if that's all you have. Ah but it is not. I have faith, hope,... and love and all the religions I have investigated do not fit reality well... Many stories of impossible feats... Might as well be worshipping Thor or one of the other plethora of gods/goddesses. Are the "trinity" that you spoke of not MAJOR expectations of several currently popular religions? Aren't some or all of your "trinity" classified as one of the seven cardinal virtues? Are these not some of the highest aims of humans? And haven't they all been rendered in some form in all religions? Maybe you're just spoiled for choice? If I explained to you my reasons for this I would insult some members on here. This I try to avoid. WE the world. My faith that it is a shining planet under the sun which shines in reality... that is my home. and I share it with others... The rest, I think, is meant for misdirection. I see you want to avoid insult and anger, but you want to say something.... Kindred spirit;though fallen; Arise! and Evanesce the Word! |

The church is within you - Jesus What it seems like you are confused about what is religion and what isn't. You think religion is what you see in the TV or hear in the news. You think, religion means you gotta dress up in a specific way and perform specific ceremonies in a specific place and you gotta read a specific book. My best suggestion is to educate yourself more. There is shame in nakedness. If you think about it, if we all walked around naked, we'd be so preoccupied with sex that we would break the very laws and morals that we stand to preserve. It would literally be Sodom and Gomorrah and Ancient Rome all over again. And at the present time we are not far from it. Hey, isn't Rome the seat of some kind of holy power? To address your first question you should read this article. http://doesthebiblecondonenudism.blogspot.com/2007/11/does-bible-condone-nudism.html As for the second part yes Rome is the seat of the catholic church one of the major christian denominations. He was referring to the Rome of the past. Because of Rome is why Easter bunny is around at Easter. Here is a short paraphrased version of what happened. During Easter Romans would celebrate the Goddess of fertility. What better way to celebrate the Goddess of fertility the a weekend orgy of all your closest friends. So you would spend a couple weeks having sex with whomever and whenever you wanted. Well during this time you have Christians who are told to abstain from sex. So how do they blend in a community that is very intolerant( i.e death for not conforming)? Have your own party in your home during the same time but celebrate the death of Christ. As time went on celebration of different saints was added to coincide with Roman Gods in order to protect the Christians during this time. So to wrap up plan an authentic Easter next year. Anyone game? jk ...like where exactly does the shame come from? Is it merely a biochemical reaction from the release of a hormone? Or is it really coming from US...is it really our soul, spirit, what have you, that is radiating emotions. If the latter is true, what other reason is there for us to feel "guilty" about nakedness? humans are taught to feel shame about nakedness. Look at young children. They have no problem being naked. In fact, they rather prefer it, I'd say. It is only after they are taught that being naked around others is not proper do they start wearing clothes by choice. And they best way to teach them that is via shame. Consider it the first mental scar bestowed by parents to child. |

If the account given in Genesis is really true, ought we not, after all, to thank this serpent? He was the first schoolmaster, the first advocate of learning, the first enemy of ignorance, the first to whisper in human ears the sacred word liberty, the creator of ambition, the author of modesty, of inquiry, of doubt, of investigation, of progress and of civilization. http://www.infidels.org/library/historical/robert_ingersoll/gods.html yes we should, and as I happen to have his soul focus, you are welcome, one and all. I've returned to finish the lesson. It means that like everyone else on the planet Earth is an aspect of one of the seven super-souls, (archangels) I am an aspect of Samael, the first Archangel, who was indeed the serpent in Eden. Having his soul focus, means that my being here on Earth is the emanation from Samael, just as everyone that isn't me on Earth, is an emanation from one of the other 8. ....so where does one find this information? |

I am sorry, I could not get through even the first two sentences. It's not that you were a bad writer or that your question were without merit. I don't know. All I know is that the visual of the one-paragraph deal in your original post hits me like a brick wall -- you know, it's like a wall, full of bricks, but their densely placed visual makes every brick disappear. Similarly, your text is full of ideas, full of similarly weighing thoughts, but they, all together like that, without giving your reader some help in catching his breath, so to speak, by paragraphing, makes it into a wall of ideas indistinguishable from each other. If one tries to make out the different things, then, like your eyes would water and go googley if you were to count the bricks in a real brick wall, one's mind waters and goes googley after the first two sentences. Try to make your text more readable, more appetizing to the reader. There is laziness, true, on the part of the reader, but there is also the packaging that sells the story. My advice is to please brush up on your style, both visual and contextual, and more people will read you. Another helpful hint in order is to make your sentences varied -- long ones, short ones, complex ones, simple ones, listing ones, adjectivised ones. Buying "Elements of Style" by Funk and Wagnall (I am not sure of the spelling or even if the names are right) would be a good investment if you are planning to write a great deal more in the future. I don't mean to put you down, and I hope I have not. I don't mean to take the wind out of your sail. I just mean to help you with telling how one can improve his chances of being read and his ideas responded to. The post was actually meant to be a response to another thread here, but I decided to start a thread. I'm not up to date on the faux-pas of thread posting, so I consider it a lesson learned. |

If they truly believe "God don't make no junk", why don't they be proud of what God gave them and want to show it off? There is shame in nakedness. If you think about it, if we all walked around naked, we'd be so preoccupied with sex that we would break the very laws and morals that we stand to preserve.
