@SW-User maybe you should pray for more, since that seems to work so well for you

@goneNow6565 Indeed.

@goneNow6565 if your heart isn’t open to experiencing the supernatural and God don’t blame it on religion
@SW-User well if you are just going to tell me you believe in magic and I am not open to believing in that bullshit then I have nothing to say
gods are the product of religions (created by humans), religions and gods are not separate things

@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz damn! I want ten percent of the buxom brunettes in your inbox!!😐
@TexChik Why do you believe that is even a real thing though? Because it is in the bible and well dressed old people told you so in a pretty building? I mean the bible also talks about ghosts, angels, and magic. Do you think that is also real? Or just conveniently only a metaphor when it suits you?
@SamInAZ I have seen you posts. So I know you know what you are talking about
@TexChik I mean have you ever met anyone who died and asked about that experience? (Besides what you saw on the history channel lol)
@jackieash I merely pointed out the world doesn't revolve around you
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz I never said it did.

@Mellowgirl I think you only really doubled down on what I was saying.

@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz OK....
@Mellowgirl Thank you for the response though
I confronted an old friend about this the other day. I was like, "do you really believe the bible?" "Don't you think it is a little too fantastical?"
He told me that this is why Christians need to have faith. 🙄
I mean I guess I could also have faith that the universe rests on the back of a giant turtle.

@goneNow6565 Faith is the assertion used for lack of evidence
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz Yea I know that. I'm a native english speaker with a university level education.
@goneNow6565 Good for you. I agree with the points you made. No need to get so sensitive.

@BritishFailedAesthetic He also said he didn't come to change the laws. He said the ancient Israelite laws still apply.
@BohemianBabe But that he fulfilled them.

@BritishFailedAesthetic Sure, but that doesn't mean Christians aren't required to continue following the rules of the Old Testament. Also, like I said, Christians don't follow the rules of the Old Testament either.
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz Once again, you have chosen to misread my reply to you. I'm wondering why this is? You also failed to spot that I am atheist and when I got married we both set out to rid our day of any religious overtones which our families went alomg with ( my wife;s family not totally happy with that but accepted it) . Your accusation about me thinking "the world revolves around me" is nothing but a total lie.
@jackieash I didnt fail to spot that you said you are an atheist. What you failed to spot is I dont care.
I also dont care about your personal anecdotes
I also dont care about your personal anecdotes
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz Fair enough. I'm giving you advance notice you are blocked. You give atheists a bad name. Adieu.
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz Well again, thanks for sharing your expert, well thought out opinion. 👍
@BritishFailedAesthetic Still triggered i see 😂
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz 😂😂😂

So is posturing a point? Or do you concretely want to have a meaningful dialogue about any idea?
Cuz insults don't serve anything. I'm not even a Christian but this constant insulting is indecent and meaningless

@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz let me clarify my point more accurately:
Indecency in speech does not articulate or drive any message across. Poor image is a side effect. The imagery you'd be illustrating would also get lost

@cerealguy You are entitled to your opinion.
I wasn’t trying to convince anyone with my post. So i am not worried by the stuff you mentioned.

@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz I try to think of them like children.. stupidity is forgivable. Not everything should be corrected all at once because that's overwhelming. As long as they're not outright harming me, (or shoving their beliefs in my face) that part of their beliefs can be ignored and we can move on with our lives.

Because it's a "sacred" mental illness and has had money and power for thousands of years to prevent itself from being treated. A doctor trying to treat a religion will be defrocked, sued and even killed by that religion's victims.
That's why scrupulosity is so under diagnosed. If it gets bad enough we just start calling them religious terrorists. Not even realizing they have a severe sickness with an actual name.
Another example is wanting to kill or suicide bomb. Yet dictators never get treated for that because they have power and wealth. Thus the disease insulates itself from treatment.
The wealth gives them power. And many priesthoods throughout history preyed upon and terrorized their followers into giving them wealth and positions of power.
Over the millennia the effect just snowballed until you now have things like tax exempt churches which allow them to accumulate more wealth and more power to enforce their mental parasite upon the most vulnerable populations: children, elderly and the sick. Which if you notice are the exact people they always go after. The bible itself even says to go after the children:
"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it."
I.E. brainwash the kids.
