Forcing the Second Coming

"I want to show love to people who are very confused and self-loathing."

Love does not include covert hostility. You are showing more inner self than you mean to in that line I quoted.

Are you sure you're not just offended on principle?

I figured there was an interesting story behind that "soul parasite" thing, but I'm more than willing to respect your unwillingness to discuss it.

There's an intensely interesting story behind that "soul parasite" thing.
That knowledge cost me 50 years of my life, and wound up debunking
nearly everything that I thought I knew.. wound up debunking nearly
the entire new age, spirituality and religion as well.

That's why I learned that humans were 'cargo cult worshippers' of the
invisible worlds of the laws of physics.

en.wikipedia.org...

It's also what led me to understanding who human beings really are,
and led me to loving my fellow man, warts and all.

So yes.. it was quite a thing for me.

Friend,

if I said "I like chocolate chip cookies" you'd find a way to
prove that I was using code for anti-Christ or something.

Now, I'm going to start ignoring you for a while, and let
you calm down hopefully. There are plenty of other
people on the forum you can use as a mirror besides
me.

and I'll respond to your posts and PM's, at a later time..

it just seems to be the loving thing to not respond to
you for a while..

I wish you well...

I think we, the US, are doing more to hasten the end than anyone else. We are losing our morality and the godly beliefs our country was founded on.

Why does the UK always get a pass here? They have CCTV on every corner. They tax the bagezus out of their citizens. They murder innocence just as well as your average G.I. Joe here in the states.

What about China? Why do they get a pass? So they are all about the love too?

Granted the US is the most 'influencial' nation on the world stage...usually, but to gage morality you needn't look any further than the average nation to judge.

Just like in business when identifying customer satisfaction. Take the favorable and divide it against the unfavorable while omitting the middle gives you a gage. You could of course just going with a rolling average, there by pick a country in the middle of the road and see where their morality lies. If they are primary service to self we got a problem.

Is there any nation currently not in service to self?

The whole thing about wanting to force the Second Coming really reveals
the sick mind-set of certain individuals in power.

Please do bear in mind that Christians of what I would term... 'genuine' belief, know that God's hand cannot be forced. The 'Second Coming' has been expected since shortly following the crucifixion and has been used by human beings of less than decent intentions to exert control over those who chose to follow them.

Speaking for myself, I do believe in God and in Christ but I also know that I am not privy to when, where and/or how the return will occur. People applying common sense understand that anything... and I do mean ANYTHING, can be abused. In this case, applying Christ as a tool to instill fear and control is not a representation of all Christians but like politics, it is something that can be found every single day.

I can only suggest... nay, hope that when applying that common sense, good people of other beliefs will understand this and not find themselves taking part in stereotyping millions of people under the most negative of possible views.

Best.

But nothing you're willing to share. Got it.

Just to point out that Government run CCTV is only about 30k the rest is owned by private citizens.

"I do my best, like
everyone else does. Everyone does their best.. "

so ur a weak follower?, who never is good enough, for your self/soul?
gee lighten yourself up some,,, slack,,is just a breather,,during the race to perfection,,don't mean u quit.

Dear Bob,

If I were to beat people about the head and shoulders like so many do,
I'd be just another babbling voice.

Instead I choose to ask questions and see if people want to think and
not just react to their programming.

If this makes me 'weak' in your view, then so be it.

Goodness.. I don't know why it's acceptable on this forum, for so many
people to aim uninformed personal 'assessments' against specific
forum members.

Now do I make references to general patterns of behavior that I
observe in some largish groups? Sure. We all do that. Every last
one of us on this forum; and if any of my assessments are proven
to be partially or in totality wrong -- then I'll go "wow! I was
partially or in totality wrong!".

Not at all.

Being covertly hostile while claiming to love everyone is a sure sign of absolute BS.

This is the kind of thing that really gets my attention. Such a complete revolution of understanding is not something to be taken lightly nor dismissed out of hand.

I see no covert hostility. Where do you see covert hostility?

Is that research talking, or hearsay?

Just like most Christians on ATS...but without the holier than thou attitude eh?

Of course.

Did I rant and rave and say "look! see! this proves that all Christians are EVIL!".
I specifically said "certain sick individuals in power".

You know, my sister-in-law.. she's a Christian.

I've been providing her large amounts of charity for more
than 15 years now. I gave her a new vehicle.. I've sent
hundreds of dollars per month for many months.. I even
approved of my wife giving her entire inheritance from
her father's estate to my sister-in-law. Without me,
she'd literally be homeless.

Yet she's taught her little daughter, who has never really
met me, that my wife and I are gong to burn in hell.

Now some (like my brother LG) might be inclined to go,
"see! see! that's why KPB hates Christians so much!
See!"

But the truth is, I'm giving unconditional love to my
sister-in-law, while she's teaching my niece that
I belong in hell.

Yup.. I'm the bad guy.. definitely...

There's a difference between overt or covert hostility and being spoken to as a child. Sometimes messages are best received in that manner whether the receiver sees it or not. IMO, of course.

Definitely.

But I have no friends who want to learn what I know, so I have
no choice but to keep this to myself.

I guess my obnoxious personality that doesn't make friends
is doing me a real disservice.

Then again, the universe will keep on truckin' just fine without me.

Obnoxious? Haha...I'm told I am obnoxious. I tell them in return that their definition for obnoxious must be 'educated and willing to apply it'.

Am I to assume from your words that in order to explain what you have discovered, you would have to set aside a lot of time and expend a lot of energy to cover it all properly?

"I want to show love to people who are very confused and self-loathing."

This is being directed at me. It's in reference to s post I made about myself.

I'm out.
