I guess I’m just selfish then, if you say so whatever. I can’t be any different than how I am.Lacewing wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 4:43 pmWell, something seemed way off from your usual -- but I guess you don't see that.
That's kind of selfish. Don't you respect the time that people put into trying to understand and communicate with you? Couldn't you just yell into a tin can if all you want is to pass time and express yourself?

Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
I like coming here to express myself, I like to see how my words bring out the true nature of people’s personalities...tin cans are boring...this forum is much more fun.
I come here harmless, and for fun. But I will defend myself from the wolves who just want to ridicule me. So just be warned, I am only human too.

Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
Like you, I value being/acting in the moment. I still observe, discern, take responsibility, and use my range of diversity within that.
You seem to be saying that whatever you do is just what you do -- and there's no observation, reflection, choice -- is that right? I don't think that's true. You clearly think about things a lot, as evidenced by the topics and posts you create. Which is why it seemed weird that you seemed to somewhat incoherently post... and that's why I thought it must be due to something else.
Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
I’m sorry lacewing, I have no intention here other than to be myself, and to voice my opinions on the world according to how I see it.
It’s not complicated for me, I don’t have a problem with how anyone on this forum wants to discuss their world views either, I’m really not bothered about delving too deeply into their psychological mind sets to the point of analysing it to death. I couldn’t care less about what they believe in...that’s their groove. And same goes for mine, it really is that simple.

Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
It just astounding that people jump to the conclusion that they think there is something mentally wrong with a person just because of how they appear to express themselves, or just because it’s a little bit different to what is normally expected.
It’s like no one knows any one here usually, no one knows anyone period, not until they’ve walked a mile in their shoes.

Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
That’s why god is good because what we hate in others is always about what we hate about ourselves first,,you can’t know another until you know yourself....we love when it’s good because that’s what feels good and right and true in the real sense.
When someone is good to you you respect that and honour it...but if they are bad, you repel it because it’s not your natural state.

Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
There's no good without bad.
All just IS.
What miracle? What God? These are human words and concepts.
All just IS.
If it's nothing, there's nothing there, and nothing popping into nothing.
To me, these appear as inconsistent stories.
If nothing moves, how is there a mover? To me this seems like unhelpful nonsense (and pointless brain masturbation). How does it empower anyone's existence right here, right now?
Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
Perhaps calling brainstorming, stream-of-consciousness, trips your trigger. Both require dropping some illusory intellectual inhibitions. Give it go!
Loosen up.

Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
And that’s all I’m trying to do here, is put this point across to others...It’s just so hard to put it into words sometimes..but I can only try. Even though I am aware that I make a really big messy hash out of what I am trying to say.
Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
Do you like being treated with respect and kindness, would you ever harm another human or animal. Do you like people calling you nasty hurtful names and abusing you mentally and emotionally and physically....would you like to be tortured?Lacewing wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 5:31 pmHow does this mean that "god is good"?Dontaskme wrote: ↑Sat Apr 04, 2020 5:26 pm That’s why god is good because what we hate in others is always about what we hate about ourselves first,,you can’t know another until you know yourself....we love when it’s good because that’s what feels good and right and true in the real sense.

Answer those questions honestly?
Re: The Reason Why God is Good.
And I'm trying to get to clarity. Sometimes that requires slogging or slashing through all kinds of human concepts and contradictions -- which often people defend against all reason.

But it’s better than that even because there is no good without bad and vice versa.
And that’s the best part when there is no preference for either concept....but just the pure being without the storm, the perfect storm of god..that’s who you are.
