Alright we all need a religion of a sort!!!

[amoka]

Reading more and more of sosuave, it appears to me the only way out of the matrix is perhaps finding a religious partner. At least with a religious partner, you the "fear of god" may prevent them from engaging in immoral acts So fellas, find a church-- if you don't have one...

NO

Religion won't help you, religion at it's CORE, is all about CONTROL. If God exists, it really wouldn't matter ANYWAY because he has no DIRECT INVOLVEMENT in our present day life. You might not like this, but it's so.

If God exists it wouldn't matter until we died anyway as then we would be PUNISHED for our "sins." But wait a minute, the Holy Bible says that if you repent to God, because Jesus died for our sins, all of our sins are forgiven...so then why stop sining then?

Sorry, God is nothing more than another Santa Claus, Easter Bunny, and Hulk Hogan (old WWF when you were 2 years old and thought it was real lol).

Instead of becoming "religious" become "human."

The more "human" you become the more you will enjoy "human life." lol

>> Eliminate bullshyt theories
>> Stop sterotyping everything
>> Let go and just learn how to SMILE and KEEP SMILING through it all.

If shyt happens becoming pissed off WON'T CHANGE IT, actually becoming pissed off HINDERS you from DEALING WITH IT.

Learn how to just be "human" that is, love yourself, love your surroudnings, love other people, and DEAL with ANYTHING that comes at you STRAIGHT ON.

If a disease came out tomorrow and killed every man women and child in the space of a few weeks.

The universe would still continue to exist.

The problem with religion' it applies everything is subject to the human condition, we have made the mistake of getting to ingrosed with our own self importance.

If we all died tomorrow, the world would still spin around.

God would not say 'fuc*, i guess i will have to pack it all up now'.

It will still exist, its just that peolpe think this:
God would not say 'fuc*, i guess i will have to pack it all up now'.

Also the OP, sounds like he wants a slave rather then a long term partner, i did not mention marriage because, well alot of people know why, read my marriage threads.

Religions were ultimately created to benefit those who created them (people, not some monarch in the sky) to give their servants something to live for and to keep 'em in line. Most were cast in the form of a kingdom with a moderately despotic monarch, because that's what the people knew at the time, and how the leaders wanted people to follow them (under the guise of "following God").

Nowadays, many, if not most, people turn to religion as a sort of "cosmic equalizer" to right the wrongs they see going on all around them. Problem is, that makes them more likely to tolerate such bullshit because "they'll get theirs in hell." Also to simplify ethical dilemmas by having a straightforward code to fall back on.

But if you don't call out those who dump bullshit on everyone else to enrich themselves, they'll keep right on doing it. And no set of rules, however well-conceived, is perfect. That's why I'm not religious.

Spirituality, however, is a whole 'nother thing. That's between you and the forces and beings that make up this world. One doesn't need religion to be spiritual, and if religion genuinely helps one's spiritual being, fine for them. It just doesn't happen to work for me ... except, perhaps for the Church of Sub-Genius.

That fits with my bit like 2 ends of a puzzle, J. We'll trade beers on it. I'll get you a Bud Light, and you get me Gulden Draak Trippel Ale.

 

[iqqi]

Can I join? It will be a MI meet of the minds, lol.

 

[Bonhomme]

After John has about 12 Bud Lights and I have about 2 Gulden Draaks it'll be more like a meeting of the mindless ...

 

[iqqi]

But there is bliss is mindlessness... its a grand state of mind.

You have attained chick logic satori, iqqi (Bon blows kiss, misses elusive target by 2 meters ...)
