I really don't know how.

@TheOrionbeltseeker Ask God for wisdom, he will show you! Or just wait for God! Sometimes He wants us to wait. But always be obedient.

@Kwek00 I also don't know what you mean.

"If you ask God for wisdom, he will show you"
- Okay... how is he going to that?
"Or just wait for God"
- So he's not going to do it right away
"Sometimes he want's us to to wait"
- ... So sometimes you need to wait, and the answer will come. Which is something that happens a lot, God or no God. If you wait long enough, and (most probably) search for answers in the mean time you will get an answer. There is no God needed for this process. When you ask for an answer and it comes right away by some "miracle" instead of human reasoning. That would be quite spectaculair. Like you ask for an answer, and suddenly some message in a bottle pops up in your toilet giving you exactly what you needed to furfill your quest... that's pretty cool. But just waiting (and searching in the meantime) has nothing to do with anny great believe. So the prophecy that "God" will give you an answer... is pretty much self-fullfilling. If you never get answer then God didn't want you to have answer (also self fullfilling).

But stay obedient... that's like the clear message here!
CONFORM! WORSHIP!
The words of a true radical.

@Kwek00 No words to express.
Kwek00 · 41-45, M
@TheOrionbeltseeker Is that even a sentence?
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 I don't have words to express.

@TheOrionbeltseeker You seem to be pretty conflicted about things...
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 you seem to be a very learned person.
Kwek00 · 41-45, M
@TheOrionbeltseeker Not really, no. I prove that every day on here.
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 I am sorry but you are a very confused person. It is just an observation as you try to evolve the conscience part.
😂.

Human conscience is inbuilt. The son of a thief knows he is doing wrong even when he is accompanying his father.

Your conscience is what makes you different from an animal. Your conscience is not molded. It's a deep mass which tells you that you are lying, it's wrong. Right now also, your conscience is telling you that you are being "PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE" for a wrong cause to prove something on which you too don't have any proof and it's wrong but no many people do hear the voice of their conscience.

My conscience is standing with the woman Cara who might be asleep or just reading the comments because she doesn't want to hurt anyone's sentiments.
@TheOrionbeltseeker What we call conscience, our sense of morality, is the result of our being social animals. Humans evolved to want to give up a portion of our individual freedom for the good of society. What we call conscience is the inner drive to act this way, and morality is its particular codification in a given society. No divine lawgiver needed.

@TheOrionbeltseeker Do you think that people that do things you find "atrocious" all consider themselves to be doing something wrong according to their own conciouss? If "concious" is a God given universal thing... then why do morals and ethics over the globe are so diffrent from one another?
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 There is a difference between morality, conscience. I would Thank the scientists who could discover this much. There are parts in human brain which tell you do something wrong and something right at the same time, calculate the pros and cons. Sometimes, the conscience gets pressed to the bottom and this is what gives rise to different decisions.

You are living in an area where there is abundant of vegeterian food available. Your morals would ask you to be veg.
And you are in a desert, your morals would ask you to be non veg.

Don't mix conscience with morals and ethics.

@LeopoldBloom Ha, God gave you the conscience!!
Kwek00 · 41-45, M
@Silverwings Just like George Lucas gave us the force?
Kwek00 · 41-45, M
@TheOrionbeltseeker Man... in your thinking, there is something "universaly good" hiding in everyones mind. And because of certain factors something in our mind opresses this "universal good" thing? Like an "objective" truth about morality?
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 No, just like you have a father and you have 4 brothers and you don't feel a thing about your father and your father throws you out of home and keeps your brothers under him.
Silverwings · 61-69, F
@TheOrionbeltseeker God Jehovah, Creator of heaven and earth, put something in man that makes him very different. God gave man a conscience, and this conscience is a law, teacher, and judge for each man, woman, and child.

So every bad descision is an "unconcious" descision?
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 @Silverwings

Don't you feel it from inside? Really? Suppose your father goes to moon mission by scientists before your birth, won't you say that he is your father because you haven't seen him?

Think about it personally.

@TheOrionbeltseeker I am not sure I follow your meaning?
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Kwek00 This, the science or a biologist with an expertise on brain can tell you with confimity.
TheOrionbeltseeker · 36-40, M
@Silverwings I meant that @Kwek00 need not to see God to tell everyone that God is there.
