Crazy crazy crazy

This is the way half clever teenagers tend to see it. Or it could be the combined wisdom of a species trying to understand the meaning of existence, a subject so deep we do not even now really get it. Forced to choose I will go with the accumulated wisdom of the species over the smarty pants adolescent, every time.

Well said.

We can individually and collectively determine how we choose to feel and believe about a variety of subjects.  Humanity has been (and will continue to be) faced with vexxing questions on these topics.

If you believe my post above to be a bit "sophmoric", it was intended to be. It was actually intended to provoke the possibility that taking one's self too seriously is kindof silly itself. It was intended to demonstrate that dropping a bible verse to another in an audio forum to serve as some sort of "mic drop" moment is sortof silly as well. That's all.

For instance, we are each highly proficient at that with which we are highly proficient. I would never debate with you about XRAY technology or the trouble in the retail health care system. I additionally would never dispute your automotive driving skillset. On the rare occasion that someone believes their singular proficiency is universal, you and I recognize there will always be another who will remind us, in the immortal words of the Gershwin's, "It ain't necessarily so".

ghasley, now that you know they/you/me can't abide by the old testament laws, 10 commandments or even ONE simple rule. ("Don't eat the fruit from ONE TREE."), maybe read the Good news in the new testament and quote it instead. 

Knowing the truth and KNOWING the truth will set you free (Faith), is the choice of everyone on this earth.

There has been physical bondage sense the beginning of time and one's position in time and space reveals who is a slave and what they are a slave too. 

I live FREE and bound only by faith, nothing more nothing less.

Grace, unmerited favor, you can't buy it, it's not for sale, and you CAN'T earn it.. You just have to accept it. It's a FREE gift...

10 generations ago my forefather came here as Welch/Baptist in the 1700s and Irish/Roman Catholic in the 1800s as missionaries to US/Canada. They were ABROAD and still are 300 years later. For the most part still doing the same thing..

Lot of people don't know that Saint Patrick was actually Roman from Whales. Both his parents were Roman citizens and Governors or some such thing..

twoleftears, obviously you have the right to post your opinion, as you exercised it here, yet have a problem with me having mine???
