So...it has given you hope and a sense of security that you didn't have before, eh? So...why do you display a self-righteous, holier-than-thou attitude here then? So...why don't you display that humility here so that everyone can see it? Or are you saying you were even worse before? That...

So...are you infallible, Aimiel? How long have you been a member of Westboro Baptist Church? What has your belief given you that you did not have before you became a believer?

Truth is channeled by demonic forces? Lol. Ahhh...so, if anything outside the Bible agrees with the Bible, it's bad? Are you describing the Bible? Then it isn't represented in the Bible, either. So...if you claim the Bible is true, it doesn't make it so? You sound like a demon to me...

Aimiel is where he needs to be at this point in this life. When he's ready for more, the universe will be ready to provide it.

That, of course, is your own conception of it. So this applies to YOU as well...every time you "correct" someone else's conception, you're simply substituting your own conception for theirs. No, I don't accept your conception...any more than you accept mine.

Wow! A book that contains not only the prophecies, but also the record of their fulfillment? How could anyone doubt the hand of God in that?

The UB is a bit "woo-woo" for my tastes. However, measured against other revelational religious texts, the picture it paints of God is a God I would love to exist...a God worthy of the name, the best that God represents. Emotionally, I still wish it to be true...analytically, the UB, too...

The notion that "mind" cannot emerge from a cause / effect (mechanistic), non-dual universe is a questionable premise. Cause / effect does NOT have to "contain" mind as any sort of actuality...it only has to include it as a possibility. What we know of as "mind" is...at least according to the...
