Really they are not my slaves, they are slaves to the lies and hatred
that make up their foundation of inner sickness.
You see, whatever subject I write on, I can always count on 'my
atheist groupies' to give into their slavish desires to try to tear it
and tear me down.
But what else can they do?
If they believed in prayer, they could hope and pray Dawklins or
Harris would show up to defend them?
Since there is no money involved, the chances are slim that would
happen.
"Trade curses everything it touches and even though you trade in
'messages from heaven' trade attaches itself and the whole thing
becomes cursed." ~ Thoreau.
And even if Dawklins or Harris showed up, a hundred Dawklins's or
Harris's could not defeat truth - for the truth stands on its own and
the truth is that which does not change.
The mind manacled, defiant based, spiritually sick atheists have
nothing to replace their hatred with.
They use this hatred to block them from seeing the ugly lives they are
trying to escape from. Until they pick up some new tools to replace
the old one they will not drop the old one.So until they open up their
minds to truth they will never get free from being slaves. This is the
conundrum of the mind manacled, defiant based, spiritually sick
atheists.
Do I hate atheists?
No, I think they are pretty much right with their evaluation of the
monotheists...if one leaves hate out of the equation.
But being an agnostic, I also have an open mind to God or a higher
spiritual power.
Atheists seem to be like animals caught in trap, squirming and
writhing in every direction, looking, grasping outside of themselves
for freedom from this trap to find a modicum of inner peace.
But the trap is an 'inner one' and all your efforts at hatred and
snapping at others are futile.
Always remember, passions are rooted in the self and the self is
always is in flux which accounts for the rise and fall of these
passions.
Whereas, truth is stable - for the truth is that which does not
change.
Seek truth mind manacled atheist and just do not pay it lip service.
Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray, Kate, Floyd, Neil and all the
rest of the mind manacled, defiant based, spiritually sick
atheists...what would life be like without your slavish dependence on
hatred and ill will and ignorance?
Can you imagine a life free from your slavish dependencies?
It is your right to not like me and you are free to think about the me
as you please.
This is your right Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray, Kate,
Floyd, Neil.
.
But when you claim that atheist are guided by truth...that is a real
insult.
Nothing could be further from the TRUTH.
If we are seeking to find the truth about a subject, it a good policy
to concentrate on principles of truth and not on destroying
personalties as a way to block one from seeing the truth Raven,
Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray, Kate, Floyd, Neil.
Concentrating on personalties and name calling just fuels the passions
and makes it hard to discuss the real issues.
It must being tough being you Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray,
Kate, Floyd, Neil.
You operate by hatred and prejudice and have no foundation in truth,
charity or humanity.
Whatever I submit must be torn down and disagreed with as to do
otherwise would destroy your sense of ego.
Since you cannot tear down what I write about as false, you work to
tear down me.
But that will not work since my self worth is not based on what you or
anyone thinks of me as my self worth is based on truth.
At the end of my posts, I list myself as practical philosopher.
You see, I try to practice what I preach, I am not a theoretical
philosopher,
So I know many of these tools I write about work from practical
application.
I am not driven by fads or public opinion, I am driven by truth and
inner peace
To make matters worse, what I write about is not always 'what I
write.'
I draw from many sources and traditions of wisdom and philosophy...all
time honored and tested tools.
And it is 100% blanket dismissal from the mind manacled, defiant
based, spiritually sick atheists 100% of the time.
You see, a person may be wrong some of the time, but seldom are they
wrong all of the time.
In addition if I am wrong 100% of the time are the rest of my teachers
such as Aristotle, Homer, Socrates, Buddha, Jesus, Plato, Thoreau,
Ruskin, Huxley, Rousseau, Hobbes, Lao Tze, Voltaire, Ben Franklin,
Dalai Lama, Epictitus, Marcus Aurelius, Emerson, James Allen, Bhodi
Dharma, Hume, Aquinas, Descartes and many hundreds more...are they
also 100% wrong...100% of time as well?
If this is the case and we are all 100% wrong 100% of the time...then
who must we turn to for truth?
Do the mind manacled, defiant based, spiritually sick atheists have
the truth?
Well, read their posts and judge for yourself.
Sometime they do have the truth and other time they do not.
As I said, seldom is a person 100% wrong 100% of the time.
The bottom line is this Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray, Kate,
Floyd, Neil.
You have two paths to decide on.
You can take the path of truth and find inner peace by developing
wisdom and virtue
or
You can take the path of the mind manacled, defiant based, spiritually
sick atheist and head for a life of destruction and inner turmoil.
As James Allen wrote in As a man Thinketh:
"To think well of all, to be cheerful with all, to patiently learn to
find the good in all - such unselfish thoughts are the very portals of
heaven; and to dwell day by day in thoughts of peace toward every
creature will bring abounding peace to their possessor."
Wisdom is a most important quality to develop if one desires to live a
life at peace.
But before we can develop wisdom, we must be able to think rationally.
To be rational require one to be truthful.
All these qualities are related.
Seeing things clearly is a byproduct of being at peace and developing
wisdom.
Applying wisdom to our actions yields peace and being at peace allows
rational thought.
But just applying rational thought alone does not equal wisdom or
peace.
Remember ..."A wise mans knows what he says and a fool only says what
he knows."
Once your life becomes authentic and is based in right actions it
stops becoming 'an act' and is real.
In short 'you know and live' what you say and what you say and how you
act leads one to inner peace Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray,
Kate, Floyd, Neil.
This doesn't mean we have to not be concerned with danger to our well
being by any particular group.
But, it also reminds us we will never be at peace by fostering hatred
for another Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael Gray, Kate, Floyd,
Neil.
Your first step in the direction of new life is to admit your mistakes
and apologize for all the damage you have done to others through your
hatred and insobriety of opinion Raven, Robibnikoff, Bilbo, Michael
Gray, Kate, Floyd, Neil.
Now you have turned around in direction and are now on your way to a
new life of peace and serenity...but it all starts with that first
step.
Good luck,

What took you so long?
Where's the lie in "you're annoying, get lost"?
Talk about sick: who's obsessed about a fucking number? Who sends
verbal diarrhea every fucking day?
It's time you get a life...
Besides: you've been kicked out of other discussion groups, everyone
here thinks you're a prick...
Aren't you starting to get the message?
> Whereas, truth is stable - for the truth is that which does not
> change.
Define "Truth". Then show me one stable "truth" that cannot change and
therefor never has changed. Best if you can prove this "Truth" empirically.
I have one in mind... but it still is not unchangeable. Actually, a
second one springs to mind. But weeeell.... how can I prove Murphies
Law? Hm... actually a third one... but that one I will not say.

LOL. How much rent do you pay for the fantasy world you seem to live
in?
Just wondering: have you ever considered the idea that the reason
literally everyone reacts so negatively to you may be due to something
on your part, rather than theirs?

The same thing happens to really lousy pop bands: no matter
what they do, people boo. Often the leader of the band
blames the audience, not his own crappy music. Sound
familiar?

You are addicted to this activity. You are in serious spiritual pain. You
cannot attain happiness because you refuse to relinquish control. You are
told you can't have an AA# and you refuse to accept it even though it has
nothing to do with you and is out of your control. You posted a long
diatribe about letting go of control and how great it is. Now you glow with
pride about how great and powerful you are over atheists. And you still
wear the fake AA#. Poor V. Poor, sick, addicted, V. You will never be able
to escape this drug alt.atheism. I'm afraid there's only one way out for
you...

Oh and by the way - this is atheisim below - Emmett's final line fits you
to a 'T'
"Atheism is the world of reality, it is reason, it is freedom. Atheism
is human concern, and intellectual honesty to a degree that the religious
mind cannot begin to understand. And yet it is more than this. Atheism is
not an old religion, it is not a new and coming religion, in fact it is
not, and never has been, a religion at all. The definition of Atheism is
magnificent in its simplicity: Atheism is merely the bed-rock of sanity
in a world of madness."
