"God told Norvel Hayes the church is sadly lacking. We do not worship Him enough."
That's all I needed to read. Boo hoo, my creations aren't paying enough attention to me, I guess I'll start sending tornadoes and floods and stop helping their crops grow until I'm the center of attention again. Waaaaaah!!!
Just goes to support my theory that this "God" is just a kid fooling around with his powers, and absolutely no appreciation of what it is to be responsible for his actions because no one has ever held him accountable. Maybe it's about time we held him accountable.edit on 9-12-2012 by AfterInfinity because: (no reason given)

Dear vethumanbeing,
You have to be you before you can talk to him. There are no shortcuts, you don't just get the answer to how to be saved and what happens after. You have to decide who you are to know the secrets, no secret society can answer that for you, nobody can give you the answer. Who are you? I shall tell you a story.
I was a mentor to a young man, he is an amazing man in his 30s. He cried tonight as he was helping me move. His wife, that I know, cheated on him. How he handles this garbage will define who he is. He watched me go through the same except, I had been married for over two decades.
People ask to talk to God. Really, what price tag are you actually willing to pay for such a privilege? Be a good you and stop worrying about knowing it all, who are you? That is the first question as it should be. Peace.

Basically I believe sound and light is a major factor in the creation of life. Sound > waves > frequencies > makes geometrical patterns > each element has its own geometrical shape > elements make up everything.
You can also have light waves/ frequencies too, which give things color etc. and light has to interact with matter/ particles, and can in turn give them energy which would speed up the speed of sound. And since light interacts with matter, and sound must travel through a medium(air/particles), light will affect sound.
Dear A Question; what an unusual name for someone whom answers those things indeciferable, the vague nagging tugging questions so elequently. Truthfully, I do not know how to be me. I do not quite understand what I am. Why did you move; were the tears of the young man ones of those of prenaturally missing you already? As you experience the betrayals, pitfalls within a long productive life how do you reconcile them (equalize the pain and the joy). I am the best me that I know how to be but have so little experience . You will be alright. You will be extraordinary; anyone comes into contact with you will know who you are. As in these times I might have to take a shortcut or two. Thankyou.

Well, based upon my prior responses, I am pretty sure that I am not indecipherable. Before we can understand anyone's answers, we must understand our answer. Not vague, not confusing, very direct. We can wait to be told what the winning answer is or determine what our answer is. Which defines us? Defining yourself does not mean finding "equalizing" answers, it means admitting what your answers are. We must begin the journey of self discovery by admitting to ourselves what our scales are that we use for determining our answers.
Every religion, every belief set has a set of final decisions. The Satanists believe you should do whatever you want that is their ultimate believe. "Do as thou wilt shall be the whole of the law" is what I believe Crowley said. Muslims believe they should do whatever will give them their 99 virgins. What do you believe? What tips your scale, what determines your choices?
As for shortcuts, take all you want so long as you take responsibility for them. How can we learn from our mistakes if we don't admit that they were choices?

Why should talking to my father be a privilege? Talking to a parent should never be a privilege. You brought it into this world, you're responsible for its education and upbringing. If you're not capable of training your creations, THEN DON'T CREATE THEM.
But apparently, that isn't how "God" sees it. Or rather, people are content to keep making excuses for him. I've seen men and women persecute their father straight to the grave for less. People disgust me.

Spend the next year following (if you are capable) his route towards the mathematical nature of God. Then you can talk about God because your mind has had some experience of Him. If you an atheist, suspend your conditioned mindset and try to examine objectively and dispassionately all the amazing evidence presented there.

The problem is that there is no "Source Entity" that exists. Conscious awareness is not primordial. It doesn't sit at the base of reality, even if it does perceive its own version of reality. Reality is the base foundational structure that contains all conscious awareness. Conscious awareness doesn't provide the base foundational structure for reality. Perception is not creation. It's interpretation of that which already exists. Consciousness can only perceive what already exists, and create its own interpretation/translation of what it perceives.
This means that there is no one that actually has the authority to "speak" on behalf of everything. That doesn't prevent every other conscious entity from claiming that authority, or the rest of the conscious entities that exist from allowing any one of them to exercise that authority over them. Humans need to imagine themselves - and whatever it is that they can imagine to be similar to them - as being completely in charge of reality. That will never change regardless of the amount of evidence that emerges to debunk that notion.
