MizMyColi: I see where you're going and what you're trying to rope me into. I don't claim to have all the answers, the OP doesn't either. Now who is assuming here...  You are the smart one..im just trying to get your points.. straddling two seeming divides must be a lot of work Back to the unsure words... eh You believe what you want about Jesus and God and Holy spirit. I believe what I want to. ok No, I haven't been defensive at all.
That would require some level of bitterness on my part.
Btw, it's not just one guy, there are 4. Goan count properly. No my dear...u have always made subtle and clear jabs at what those u call [i]"close minded religious, mind-controlled bigots." [/i]This theme has recurred through all your treatises. There is really no need to explain your faith or lack of or metamorphic faith to anyone. Well.. at least a lot of people will know your faith is only understood by yourself, your crew n a few you know. I won't be replying any more mentions from you. Giving you a heads up, so you won't think of it as being discourteous, tenks. Its your prerogative to respond At least u were courteous enough to say so ahead Toodles |

MizMyColi: Reconciliation of beliefs? How is that gonna be possible, those are two extremes and I don't think that's what xcapist meant.
You just named the common grounds and that does it for me, at least. So why not open a thread and plead for decency and respect Whats all this pre socrates and peace stuff Meanwhile i read ur long post and i see what u doing... doing the same u accuse the 'radicals' of doing No one here has attacked you yet(maybe one guy who said u were on weed) but uve been defensive all through Now Lets talk about your healer Jesus since the killer Jesus does not exist to u.. right? I know they say wordy posts mean one is up there and that if u want to hide something from people... make it hidden in a long post BUT Some of us read long posts  Explain this http://bible.us/rev19.11-16.kjv And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND Lord OF LORDS. Is that the guy u say is a buddy.. no hard bone in his body? |

Now you have spoken finally...all u said earlier was Im not sure, I dont know,,  Errmmm..... I still dont get all this How can there be common ground between those who deny the existence of that which YOU claim exists within YOU  Decency..yes Respect..yes But reconciliation of beliefs... sounds new age to me? MizMyColi: @TheEmboldened, isn't that a clear example of opposing ideas the philosopher would wanna unite.
I figure him calling atheist and theist for a conference and saying,
Guys, Guys, you believe in God, you don't believe in God. you two are right in your own respects. Especially seeing as no truth is absolute.
But then, is there a way for you two to live in peace and harmony, seeing as we share same resources in almost all regards. Can we be brothers and talk freely about what we hold dear without going on each other's throat or trying to shove one's belief down the other's neck.
Christians, can you pray and believe that your atheist brothers will find the true light of Christ again? - and while at it keep loving hell out of them?
Atheists and every other "ists" Can you have good hope that one day your christian brothers will see and know exactly what you know that God is a fairy tale? - and until then, keep loving and wishing them the best?
All we need here is a common ground.
We are one, we are connected, agree or not.
Also Pickabeau, when he said let them hurl stones, he meant those who have made it a duty to throw jabs and insults at me, directly and indirectly on this thread.
He is a Christian, a full Christian and I respect and love and accept him for his choices - whatever they are. He might not be a good candidate to further project that debate to. |

thorpido: Some families grow up this way and obviously your wife and the twin must have been that way.I know a family where the siblings can walk in on each other even in the bathroom.
If you have issues with this,just discuss with your wife and make her understand how you feel so she can make some adjustments.You have to understand that she has been this way before marrying you so be patient. This A new wind has blown and old things have passed away |

MizMyColi: Yes! Yes!
I believe. Mutual respect is key. Both sides need to stop feeling superior over the other. They need to give each other grace.
They need to accept people based on their person(alities), not their belief or unbelief. Before we were born into religion, first we were born humans. ok |

Check irrout
ok... so you believe there can be an understanding between a belief that denies the existence of God and another that believes in that same God In another time and place, im sure u would have formed a movement but now.. i dont know weda your experiences or insights push you or you really yearn for that spot of kumbaya |

Christianity Etc › Re: OPINION: Violence Is Not Part Of God's Nature. by pickabeau1: 2:06pm On Oct 16, 2014 |
MizMyColi: At the base of our being, in our original being, we are not flawed, we are not inherently bad. From the bible's account, I think what happened to humanity was more like a virus attack, we needed to be reformatted.
Jesus came to reconcile us back to the father, not reconcile the father to us. He didn't come to give us a path to divinity.
He came to show us our divinity. He came to make us realize that as he is, so are we. Gradually, humanity will awaken to her profoundness. The earnest of creation awaits us. Our manifestation, as sons. I wish you used more references as i dont know which is scriptural and which is your own inference Jesus is the Way.. no man cometh to the Father but by him The word says He will no longer strive with flesh. and it needed a sacrifice of blood to restore us to the Father . so i dont get your allegory about formatting and viruses.. That God is my devil. I no longer believe God, as I now know him was responsible for those incidents. Sometimes, I don't know what to believe even, more reason I dropped the bible, for now. #EndOfStory Interesting Familiarity, No. He still awes me everyday. Truth is, if I were to take God as he has been presented in the bible. If I do not know better, that God as I know him, was never responsible for the Genocides and killings he's been accused of over the ages - I would be a full blown atheist by now. And Yes, you're right, he is not just a father figure, he is my Father. That's why I'm called Adannaya. No, he is not fuzzy. He is as real to me as this water before me. Thing is, I may not be able to prove that to anyone, and I don't care. Infact, in this regard, I don't mind being called the most foolish ever liveth.
No, I won't. When it comes to theology, I am not sooo sure. So I'd rather keep mute and talk about the things I've experienced and seen to be true in my life. I believe though that everyone has Christ in them, for he fills all things with himself ALL IN ALL. Some just don't realize yet. Fair enough,,, you dont have to say things u are not certain of So what do u mean when u say u see yourself as a bridge between theism and atheism |

Christianity Etc › Re: OPINION: Violence Is Not Part Of God's Nature. by pickabeau1: 1:34pm On Oct 16, 2014 |
MizMyColi: That won't be necessary, because I do not accept you proposition/opinion that I am hot or cold. What I accept is my humanity. No problem Humanity? But humanity is flawed and Christ came to give us a path to divinity Agree? God, the creator, the almighty, the one who has no darkness in him, neither shadow of turning. The one who has revealed himself to me. .. yet he says I am a vengeful God.. visiting the sins of the fathers unto the fourth generation This same God struck thousands who did not obey his word in the wilderness Are u talking of a place of extreme familiarity or a fuzzy fatherfigure Everyone is saved. Some just don't realize yet. Some will never realize it in this age, but they will eventually, in the age to come. The Gospel of Christ is not a proclamation. It's an invitation to all men, to come and see, what he has done, for them, once and for all.
Can u explainfurther... everyone is saved Do u mean we will be saved in the afterlife |

As i said assign temps at your will I have read your post and will like further clarifications -Jesus is who I am. For it is no longer me that lives, but him that lives in me - the Him here is God..i believe? please explain - The holyspirit is one with me. He is the life giving force. He is not a force that is out there. He lives within, within me. Yet he mnifests without. I believe he is present in all men. Explain the spirit dwelling in all men. does this mean whether they are saved or not MizMyColi: So you think Atheists are cold, and theists, Haaawwwt. Lolest. Have you met xcapist and his likes in real life, outside NL? You should sometime.
Lolest. Like I asserted earlier. Jesus is who I am. For it is no longer me that lives, but him that lives in me (see I just quoted the bible). I want to be courageously human, a powerful expression of love, acceptance, peace, beauty, goodness, freedom and compassion in this world, and live without separation from myself, God, others and life… as I see Jesus did.
The holyspirit is one with me. He is the life giving force. He is not a force that is out there. He lives within, within me. Yet he mnifests without. I believe he is present in all men. He prays through me. I rarely pray in english these days. Sometimes, when I wanna pray, It's just like a force takes control of my tongue and I speak gibberish/strange language even when I'd set out to pray in English. Christians call it speaking in tongues.
I don't blame him though, I actually yielded all of my being to him/it. before I started replying comments on this thread, I consciously asked him to help me. Left for me, I would have been really bitter at some of the comments I've seen here, especially that of Kay17, but all I feel like doing, all I want to do is give him grace.
Your question answered? |

MzMyColi There is a question ive been meaning to ask u How can one say she is saved by the blood of Christ and yet denounce the Bible please explain
This post is really harsh but i understand the sentiment How can one be hot and cold at the same time Kay17: I think MizMyColi is a plain coward trying to cling and get the best out of two opposing 'worlds'. What the hell is compassion and love?! It is people with filled stomachs that have much to say about the universality of love and compassion. Life itself is a struggle, an internal war either between right and wrong or hope and hopelessness; hatred is as necessary as love, because you can not love evil, one must hate it. |
