And they do this everyday and think absolutely nothing of it.How do you know that people think nothing of what they say? Are you projecting? If you think people do not consider what they say, you must not consider what you say because you're a person too.

Translation; people are reading what I have to say in large numbers; and its absolutely nothing you can say to belittle that. To YOU its meandering, to so many others it is not; that is something your going to have to deal with the reality of, or just stop contributing to the numbers listening yourself.

Its so interesting how certain people are attacking me for posting my views; something they are free to do themselves; the reason for this is transparent;

Envy

Irritation

Intimidation

Fear

Anger

Frustration

competition

Jealously

Its just so painfully obvious, and they don't seem to believe that the more they come at me, the more I will show how transparent they really are.

I mean but, you know; some just can't get enough punishing.

What is the world coming to, when the Middle East can never seem to be at Peace. But notice, religion is mostly always what they fight over; God or an interpretation of God. Always one or the other. The very region God first established belief in him, just can't get it together.

Why is that?

As you wish;

This again is a live example of what the world is coming to; this is just a thread of thoughts, yet our thoughts seem to pull us in different directions, away from each other.

But I understand that; which is why I walk alone in my views.

Back before there was civil rights, back before there was equality, back before there was TOLERANCE the world was worse then it is today! To YOU it only seems that why because YOU have not looked back at crime in the past and laws that were not there in most parts of the world. Rape,Murder,Theft,Executions were the NORMAL in every day life the farther you go back in time unlike today, where you only see about it on TV and dont have to actually live it like they did back then.

Actually, the world is better off then it used to be. Back in the medieval times murder/starvation/executions was the norm of the day almost EVERYWHERE in the world.

Things like terrorism has been happening since humans realized they could kill and its been around for years and years the only reason it seems like the world is getting worse is because it is happening here now(west) and we are NOW part of it!

What is you problem friend.

I track the various markers for evil such as poverty, death by violence including war and slavery as the main issues gaging morality here. All of those markers are at the best level we have ever enjoyed.

The sky is definitely not falling and this clip shows how well we are doing.

You might note that we have pulled a full billion out of poverty in the last 20 years and they forecast that we will do the same in the next 20.

Sheesh! What a bunch of negative Nellies you guys are. Mankind is curing diseases, making inroads in genetics, growing more food that ever in history, reaching out to space, and learning to live together as a global community. People, as a race, are better fed, healthier, and less prone to crime and war than ever before in mankind's entire history and still you guys moan and cry.

You should spend more time working and playing with children. You get so wrapped up in your complex lives and so stressed out about details you forget the big picture and begin to focus on the small things that don't matter in the long run.

Go outside, find a playground and swing on a swing set. Right now. Do it.

Since God works in mysterious ways, how do you know that a golden future for mankind isn't His plan? He is a loving god, after all!

and for that matter, how do you know that everything I wrote isn't His plan? God created man in His own image, that is to say intelligent. Obviously He wants mankind to use that intelligence to push forward against the darkness!

I am also a big fan of Star Trek. Though I find "control our genetics and population" problematic in relation to the Prime Directive, I see no logical reason to worry about that here.

It is his plan for us to live in an never ending golden ageless existence, but we won't build it, its being built by him now. I mean your half right, but you just got your " Rathers wrong;" you would" rather "believe that humanity will be the cause of that age. Instead of God.

Fascinating. You believe, as I do, that God is creating a better world right now. But, strangely, you believe that He is doing so ...somehow...without the participation of Man. I do not believe that mankind will be the creator of the new age, but rather that God is the creator of that age THROUGH mankind.



It's a big difference. You seem to believe that the baseness of man precludes mankind's participation in the greatness of the future. God will bring utopia despite man. While I believe that the spirit of man flows from God and is the basis of that future.

To be brief: God moves through men and women.

Your right, I do disagree with you. I do not believe God is creating a new age " Through mankind", I believe he is creating it inspite of humanity, without humanitys help, and that humans have absolutely nothing to do with God"s utopia; because that utopia already exist's. It existed before humanity did. Humanity will be born into it as a family, and that family will have nothing to do with creating the spirit society they will inherit.

If I'm right it good for everyone to keep striving to be better and make this world a better place for all.

If you're right, then there's no reason to do anything other than sit on our couches and wait for God to come, since we have no effect on the world.

Your way is negative, my way is positive. I like my way better.

In my view, it does not matter what man does, his destiny is already determined. He does not have any effect on the future God has planned for us all;

such is my view.
