You see this is why I plan not to talk with you. Over and over all I see is you saying horrible things to me
What on earth is wrong with you? lol.. I didnt say anything horrible. Where? Please quote me verbatim where i said something "horrible". Ive
actually been quite patient.
Apparently any criticism at all is "horrible" to you. Clearly my friend you have a short tolerance for the least degree of contention. I make one
tiny, miniscule expression of my own belief about worship, and you essentially assume im an ignoramus. Than i explain in greater detail why i believe
what i do, explaining what "idolatry" means, esoterically (since people tend to connect this idea to physical objects, and not as an all inclusive
idea pertaining to any "mental" worship of an image, or concepts.) and you bite my head off. Unbelievably offended that i would dare share my
opinion. Because this subject in itself IS relevant to this thread - since Dr. Emotos idea could borderline on praying to water, i thought it would be
relevant for me as a FREAKINFG,Free thinking, unique minded individual, to give my own opinion, which i believe is more intellectually defencible than
the idea of worship of water. Some believe as you do, while many others believe as I do. Idolatry - if it is understood for what it actually is a
perfectly sensible concept.
I've seen you do this to other people on other threads.
Even though this does happen to me with other people, i can hardly find myself at fault. This website is laden with unedecuated, arrogant, Eastern
Mysticism enthusiasts. How many here care about the Bible? or how many here are educated in legitimate, Kabbalistic ideas, as conveyed by the Jewish
tradition (that is, kabbalah before it was popularized and corrupted by the west)? Im not saying everyone has to be like me. But, nonetheless, i find
very few who have a philosophy that resonates with biblical ethics. I get along fine with people who make themselves easy to speak with. If I disagree
with their philosophy, or i find that are discussions arent going anywhere, I stop. Ill let them know that it isnt going anywhere so we agree to
disagree. I have no personal reason or need to just argue, or insult other people. Maybe it is because I sincerely, and literally have gone through a
"spiritual awakening" that isnt based on pseudo spiritual esoteric rites, or study of philosophy, but based on real life experience. Ive been
TREMENENDOUSLY humbled in my short life and at my age, i am much more mature than most people. In real life, i almost never get in arguments, and even
more so over pâltry and meaningless things. Im not being arrogant saying this. Ive sufferred. Greatly. I dealt with more than you know. Ive been
forced to understand truths that other people because of their circumstances are unable to appreciate. If youve been brought as low as ive been
brought, you would feel humbled. You would understand that all is G-ds, and nothing is yours. You will want to do right because it is right. I
frequently fail. Im not perfect. But in my relationships with others I make a real effort to be good, and do good.
While i sincerely defend real issues because i understand the consequences, im often mocked by immature, egotistical numbskulls who havent yet
awakened from their self absorption. They dont yet know that lifes choices have cosmic consequences - specifically on their own spiritual selves. I
know that. I understand that, and so I have "fear of G-d" guiding me. Some either dont have it due to immaturity, or others scoff at it with
intellectual sophistry.
But i dont "attack" people. If i see how they shouldnt have done something, ill tell them that. We all need spiritual guidance, especially those who
seem to be more interested in spirituality. I would like it, although probably at the time it would irritate me, but in the bigger picture, i have to
break that stubborn spirit and listen, because being reprimanded at a time that i am acting wrongly is a GOOD thing. We all need to make a greater
effort. Spirituality, Emunah, doesnt come easily. It comes with effort, and time, and practice.
What religion do you supposed he grew up with?
Oh. of course, Reform "Judaism". Let me tell you something about Reform, and Conservative Judaism. Nobody who learns REAL Judaism - ie; traditional
Judaism, considers that modern abberation Judaism. Truth is Sabbateans were behind that. Real Judaism is Talmud, Rashi, Maimonides, Midrash, and
understanding that teh mystical current - kabbalah, runs through all these different areas of Judaism. Len Horowitz never learned real Judaism, so he
never knew why he should embrace it. Hes never given it an honest chance, because he had his hinduism, and buddhism firmly planted in his mind. His
emotion, his desire, became for Hinduism. Juidaism with its more strict, legalistic philosophy and lifestyle interfered. So he like many Jews like him
reject it. Are they right for doing it? Undoubtedly, they are wrong, and confused.
Maybe if you stopped criticising, you would learn something new.
Human Beings are human beings BECAUSE they can criticize. Can Water, Vegetables, or a dog, criticize? Criticism requires judgement. Judgement, is
discernment. None of these levels of reality can choose, and decide what it is best for it. They either arent able to, or they choose based on
instinct or desire.
Is a degree in Network and Communications Management (IT) intellectual enough for you? What did you have in mind Mr Intellect? Would you like to
discuss Secular Humanism? The Communist Manifesto? Karl Marx? Keynesian economics? The trade deficit with China? What?
I meant more so basic philosophy. Plato, Aristotle, Pythagoras, Epicurus, Thomas Aquinas, Maimonides, Kant, or Political thought Machiavelli, Thomas
Hobbes,
I just got the impression that you dislike people who defend biblical ethics. As if it is "out of style". So my defending it is inexcusably "old
fashioned" and "backwards".
Having an understanding of history can help with understanding the present and why people believe as they do. The "enlightenment" didnt come
naturally, but was planned, and systematically introduced. Even Eastern thought and its popularization in the West was planned. Thus, what i am
fighting off, specifically here is this sometimes twisted moral relativism. Or in this extremely minor, but still relevant case, considering worship
of water as okay. If youre going to say that, justify it. If you cant, and if it cant be logically defended, than i guess I am more right than you
are. Because logic stands behind my belief.
Emotinally unstable? Emotinally unstable? Why because I wont put up with your nonsense? Because I was tired yesterday and didnt feel like arguing?
Didnt i already say that being tired is understandable? I understood. You dont feel like talking, and thats ok. You could have told me that originally
and i would have understood.
Im currently on a grueling parasite cleanse and i am exhausted - both mentally and physically, and petulent.
Also, I am NOT a GUY
That makes much more sense now. Woman tend to be more emotional, as we all know. Woman most of all should be aware of this when entering a debate. You
need to channel your masculine "intellectual" side, in order to stay objective. Before you call me a Misogonist, its well known, and even the
Jungians teach this, that the Intellect or "animus" is ones intellectual, objective perspective. Whereas the emotional "anima", is the emotional,
subjective perspective. One is outer focued, the other inner focused. Both serve a purpose. But, dont confuse the two. One provides objective
knowledge, the other provides subjective meaning.
Anywho. Sorry for clicking on you. I didnt expect this to become what it has become. This is actually stupid now that weve gone this far, although my
natural, inquistive "psychologist" inside me would like to get you understand what i originally meant, my more judicious self is telling me that it
would be a waste, and vain, so lets agree to disagree, and agree to not talk to one another again.
