I definately get it, the thing is though since Christianity is "in power" as a widespread religion it is the only one that has members attacking my religious or spiritual beliefs, or my right to choose my own spiritual path without being psychologically bludgeoned with threats of hell. I also believe it is the only faith that has taken so many terms and twisted them to it's view such as in the Christian holidays thread.

ok BB - so? What are you and me and the other's trying to do ((outside of abra who is trying to destroy monotheism)), What will i, you or other's accomplish here? Are we vain enough to think we will save somebody from the ""boogy god's""?? That we have "the truth"?? i don't - i think i only have truth's that work for me and hopefully some others will also find this out on their own with - "SHORT" but wise counsel, not what we've been doing here with multiple page discussons that prove nothing more that all of our ignorance. I for one don't believe you can know anything of god's or spiritualities until you know yourself first, all else will evolve from that point as to what is "truth". And there is very little to be found

seek ye first the kingdom of "self knowledge" and then all else will be added unto you -

BlackBird:

I don't know originally I was here discussing thoughts, because I find religion, theology, and philosphy interesting. When it became clear even these discussions are not feasibly possible due to "christian" trollers I was seeking to explain froma Christian point of view why the attacks are wrong.

In this I have not succeeded because many embrace blind faith hatred, and will not accept that others have a right to their own views without harassment. You can simply not set a mind or spirit free, they can only do this for themselves.

So what have I been doing? I've been learning more about interaction with explosive hostile personalities that refute reality, reject spiritualism, and use religion as a weapon. Will this lesson help me in any way? Perhaps so, because it has, if nothing else, shown me some of the more brutal methods used, and even made me look up a few scriptures that explain the situation for me within the bible if they are actually read.

In addition to that I think that all of us Christians and non Christians alike have effectively shown for anyone reading the way that blind faith ridicules reality and the true following of religion.

So far as my goal I was trying to show a couple of the hostile or delusional personalities the reality of their behavior, but it has become clear that the type of conflictual personalities that were represented here are not interested in true religion, spirituality, or reality. I believe my lesson was that although the reasonable type discusses, those infected with the sickness are so lost that even their own god can't get through to them.
