My brother nice topic. I'll take a stab. God is ineffable. Nobody can say what God is exactly, so that poses a challenge in answering questions about His/Her/Their existence. As Protestant theologian Karl Barth put it "God is wholly other." I've been in fellowship groups where the term "Great Mystery" is substituted for the word "God". So the best I can do is express my own understanding, based on my personal life experiences, powerful social conditioning, reading and thinking about the nature of reality. Kant taught us long ago that our perceptions are inescapably filtered through fallible sensory apparatus and mental categories that prevent us from full knowledge of external reality. As Saint Paul says, "we see through a glass darkly". I think we can talk about God from a functional standpoint: what belief in God does for humans even when we can't offer anything like a precise definition. The best I can come up with as a working definition is that God is the felt presence of a Higher Power "in whom we live and move and have our being." Not particularly original. The Higher Power, of course, comes from the Twelve Step recovery groups, and denoting any power that we recognize outside ourselves as controlling or guiding our lives--be it Yahweh, Allah, or Good Orderly Direction. So God is not necessarily the Dude in the Sky. The phrase "in whom we live and move and have our being" is from Acts 17:28. The "felt presence" part is mine, reminding us that what we feel might not be real in an objective sense although it can be important to us. Belief in God is an existential decision to bet our lives on this vaguely defined felt presence. To me, God is, among other things, a code word for Ultimate Meaning and an expression of my sense that it's a great big wondrful universe we live in--as the Protestant theologian Paul Tillich puts it "the Ground of all Being", or as John Dewey prefers "the summation of human idealism". I've been influenced by psychologist Viktor Frankl, who sees the quest for meaning as the basic human drive. Writing from his observations in a Nazi concentration camp, Frankl thinks that the prisoners who survived were those who could find meaning to their lives even in that hellacious environment. The meaning could take a variety of forms:memory of a loved one, a ray of light coming through a cell window, etc. However, Frankl thought there were some human pursuits which are blind alleys when it comes to meaningful existence: wealth, status, power, and sensual indulgence. Pursuit of such things inevitably leads to emptiness. I tend to describe this in the vocabulary of religious metaphor: idolatry. These are false gods. Does God have objective existence? I tend to reject the concept of God as the "Dude in the Sky" watching and judging us. I've been influenced by a couple of physicists, Dyson Freeman and Paul Davies, who see more to the integrated complexity of the universe than operation blind material force--but they admit that this is metaphysics rather than physics. So objectively, God is either the author of the laws of physics or the laws themselves. I've also been influenced by a personal "moment of clarity" (religious experience, psychotic break, whatever) in which a passage in Genesis took on new meaning for me: the part about humans being created in the image and likeness of God. From then on, I can't go to Shoprite without seeing God in the aisles and checkout lines. Of course, I could give a perfectly naturalistic explanation to this psychological phenomenon, but the metaphor helped a lot to change my attitude and make me, in my opinion, a better person. Beyond that, I can't decide yet whether I'm a theist, deist, pantheist, panentheist or confused agnostic. But Jesus is my hero. |

ErnieSmallzz:my sister c'mon! you came out hard on a brother. |
my brother I swear ipod no go like this. |
My brothers...........Last night, I scheduled a double-header, two dates, same place, same time. Two girls arrive 10 min apart. In person, the first is a 7; the second is an 8. After the 8 arrives, I tell the 7 that I am sorry but I have to cut this date short, but she is cute and I will call her. The 7 is shocked, but what can a Cholls do? So I actively game the 8. My goal was simply a one-night stand. After 45 min of bantering, I stopped smiling. I pause, look her seriously and directly in her eyes and say, “I want to fvck you.” Silence ensues for 15 seconds. She fidgets. She is a bit uncomfortable, as my statement seemed to come out of nowhere. Why did I escalate in this manner instead of step-by-step? Why not? Following my statement, our conversation starts to organically develop sexually. I start escalating Kinesthetics, touching, grabbing her legs, pulling her hair, etc., and then invite her back to my place. She refuses. I continue escalating Kinesthetics and go for the kiss. She pulls back. I continue the Kinesthetics for another 15 minutes, and say, “I will ask you only one more time. Do you want to fvck?” She answers, “No.” I get up, pay for the tab, and leave. Now many here could say based on the above that I came on too strong, I didn’t organically escalate, or perhaps she wasn’t interested enough to fvck on the first date. Some may even say that not all girls bang on the first date. These are all possibilities. But who cares, right? 15 min later… Girl: “Why did you leave?” This morning … Cholls: Hey, sweety, passed out. I definitely would like to see you again. When are you free to get together? Girl: Thursday? Cholls: I want you to come to my house Thurs night @9:30 p.m. Girl: I don’t feel comfortable coming to your house yet. I barely know you Cholls: I want to fvck you. All I want to know is … Are you willingly going to submit to me.” Girl: By doing that I will only reinforce your control freakiness which I don’t want to … so the answer is No Cholls <Silence> Five hours later… Girl: OK, I will come. Now the reverse could have happened and I may never have heard from her again. But what’s more important: playing by my terms included within the rules around which I structure my life--or--banging some random 8 chick? Take-home message: Have intent. Be direct with your intent. Be relentless with your intent. Do not under any circumstance, surrender your position in any context—or--game over (in life). Re-evaluate your rules periodically to ensure they are serving your purpose. |
