I appreciate that Carl, and yet, it is derided as if there is nothing to its wisdom must be an emotional outburst of an internal conflict.Not everyone here is a naysayer of scripture. I agree that one who is wise will not be such.
It is not the scriptures that are disliked, it is the fear yet to be vanguished concerning existence and is projected.
Oddly enough when I cross referenced the time stamp dates with the original infection, wonder of wonders, exact time and date. Port scans to the exact time and date stamp of the original were exact matches.Do you actually believe that one of the QRS triumvirate has unleashed virus attacks on your computer? I myself have noticed a vast increase in intrusion attempts on mine lately, but I take it as a coincidence that I am posting on this site.
Lose a debate and infect your opponent is inane childish behaviour for a so called "sage."
Deducing the rest through logic, I do not think it is all three, it is just one.
Inductive and deductive logic, I have no idea how severe it will be. It is going to be epic.Where do you get your info that there will be a world crash early next year? Isn't that something one can find predicted almost every year? I've heard it so many times that I've ceased to pay attention.
1)India and Pakistan are testing their delivery systems. This fact denotes intellgience gathering in anticipation of conflict.
2)The leadership of Iran must make good on the promise of the Muslim messiah returning to a set time schedule or lose their momentum and power base. Power is the most easy thing to prdict once you understand what is the primary motive.
3)The mossad released information that the Iranians now have a trigger and enriched uranium. They will be capable of warhead capacity by March-April.
4)The demonstrations in Beruit of almost a million siding with those that seek a cataclysmic war.
5)Iran and Syria have just concluded a mutual interest(military) pact.
6)The destabilization in Iraq is partly due to elements in the USA that are making billions by this state of insurgency and so arm them. War is a big money maker. Conclusion of human nature and greed.
7) All the Western economic indicators show a frenzy of trading. This could be attributed to anticipating a huge dip coming of the major players in the investment game.
8) Real estate in the USA is plummeting, meaning; the investors are looking short term and no longer seek long term.
There is much more but these should tell you, at the minimum, there will be an oil crunch. That is just the beginning.
Diebert van Rhijn:
Diebert - no one is listening.Beingof1, you sound a bit feverish man, are you okay?
Any specific reason the world will crash next spring? It would be about time. And how to prepare?
I am using methods of drama because that is what gets responded to. This crash is being orchestrated by the most devious methods that can be imagined.
Most believe the governments of the world are the 'decision makers'. If you use cold hard logic, factor in human nature, you can see behind the smoke and mirrors.
Elizabeth Isabelle:
It won`t happen all at once - this is just the beginning.There's probably a stock market crash coming up pretty soon (actually more of a correction, but it's been such a bull run that it will feel like a crash), probably going to panic a lot of people right about that time, but the way you are phrasing it makes you sound like a madman rather than a prophet.
Believe or disbelieve, its your choice.
Iolaus:
They have had well over a thousand cases of terminal disease reversed. They cannot publish this fact as the FDA would shut them down.I looked up your linked site. I was happy that they seem to present this Ph balancing formula for a reasonable price. I get a lot of mail with various interesting products, but I notice they all seem to have about the same price of 30+ dollars per person per month. Must be some sort of marketing analysis that tells them this is what the public will bear. Problem is, there are quite a few, and if you add them up, it comes to a lot, even if you pick just a few good ones.
Keep your PH up and you will be fine. If you know how, you probably do not need this product, this is just a simple way of maintaining the healthy level.I've got a book called The Battle for Health is Over Ph, and it tells you a lot of strategies for maintaining an alkaline Ph, without buying any 'formula'.
sschaula:
Indeed it is; so is blindly clinging to dogma.Anger is a sign of ego flailing. It's a sign of an absence of truth
Peace is the absence of internal conflict, you are right sir.Peacefulness is "the fruit of the spirit". I may not know much but that I do know. I hope you are okay, Being of One.
I hope you are okay, Being of One. You have said kind words to me in the past, and I think you are an honest person...so I really hope you don't go all crazy.
This will be my last - I cannot keep spending hours trying to stabalize my system from dimwitts, when time is of the essence.
There is a failing of stabilization in Iraq, it is intentional and designed. The agenda is to reduce the population to five hundred million. I do not want to walk through every single step and where I get my information, it would take days to do that in multiple posts.
Get yourself a years worth of food, plenty of water, and survival gear. Life and death are not the issue, your survival is. I hope you understand what I just said.
Get to know God - you now know he is real.
Namaste and Maranatha
David Quinn:
What can you do? What kind of question is that? If he is sick you can do alot.He could die at any moment.
Oh well, that's the wheel of life and death for you. What can you do?
Why don`t you just dip your head under water and take a deep breath?
A poster here is right - you are a nihilist. You have a philosophy that tries to escape the pain rather than eliminate it. You are in denial.
What about the teachings of the Buddha?Carl G wrote:
Not everyone here is a naysayer of scripture. I agree that one who is wise will not be such.
David:
Are you sure about that?
What about Mormon scripture? Or the scared tenets of the Ku Klux Klan? Or the Koran, which advocates the killing of unbelievers?
Oh - thats different. Because it allows you to stick your head in the sand (through you arbitrairily picking) and confirms your irresponsibility as some kind of 'wisdom'.
What a bunch of tripe - yet you just patently make what passes for antihuman behaviour as wisdom.
Wake up - there is God. Its a conclusion of cold hard logic, unless you lack the ethics required for it.
You do not know what you are talking about.A lot of the Bible focuses on the story of an angry, vengeful God smiting the enemies of Israel and casting them into hell. Is this something that you would expect a wise person to approve of?
Each time I have discussed this with you and Kevin, you both end up running like a flock of geese. Yet; you blindly hold the Bible to double standards and do not understand what you read.
Parable:
If I walk into a basketball game and see the score is 60 - 0, home team winning. I would say the visiting team is not even a challenge.
I then observe the visiting team scoring points. Mysteriously, they are still at zero points scored!
I ask why are their points not being recorded? The answer is "we are so sure they cannot win, we don`t bother redording their score."
The answers are in the cohesive, cogent, and honest logic department (of which you champion). You ignore all the evidence that proves the validity of Jesus and scripture because you still have not opened your mind to the possibility it may be true.
You therefore; are a blind believer, just another fundy of a different stripe.
What about when Jesus spoke of the need to give up all attachments, to hate your mother and father, wife and children, to turn family members against each other, to bring fire and destruction upon the earth, etc, if you want to be his disciple - do you say yea to this?
-- Lao TzuWhen the Way is forgotten
Duty and justice appear;
Then knowledge and wisdom are born
Along with hypocrisy.
When harmonious relationships dissolve
Then respect and devotion arise;
When a nation falls to chaos
Then loyalty and patriotism are born.
This is patently true because it is not in the Bible huh?
You are still clueless because you are not opening your mind. We have already covered these sayings of Jesus over and over and yet; you ignore all the TRUE answers because it does not line up with your dogma.
Ask Diebert what the sayings of Jesus means, he could tell you.
Here is a clue to what it means - of which you will probably ignore again:
-- Lao TzuNature is complete because it does not serve itself.
The sage places himself after and finds himself before,
Ignores his desire and finds himself content.
He is complete because he does not serve himself.
Did you get it yet?
You are more than just synapsis - duh.
Let me try again because obviously you need more than multiple examples to penetrate your predjudice.
-- Lao TzuIf we could abolish knowledge and wisdom
Then people would profit a hundredfold;
If we could abolish duty and justice
Then harmonious relationships would form;
If we could abolish artifice and profit
Then waste and theft would disappear.
Yet such remedies treat only symptoms
And so they are inadequate.
People need personal remedies:
Reveal your naked self and embrace your original nature;
Bind your self-interest and control your ambition;
Forget your habits and simplify your affairs.
Did you get it yet?
I can do the same thing with any sage, wanna see?
Did you get it yet?Jesus: "Do to others as you would have them do to you." Luke 6:31
Buddha: "Consider others as yourself." Dhammapada 10:1
Jesus: "If anyone strikes you on the cheek, offer the other also." Luke 6:29
Buddha: "If anyone should give you a blow with his hand, with a stick, or with a knife, you should abandon any desires and utter no evil words." Majjhima Nikaya 21:6
Jesus: "Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me." Matthew 25:45
Buddha: "If you do not tend to one another, then who is there to tend you? Whoever would tend me, he should tend the sick." Vinaya, Mahavagga 8:26.3
Jesus: "Put your sword back into its place; for all those who take the sword will perish by the sword." Matthew 26:52
Buddha: "Abandoning the taking of life, the ascetic Gautama dwells refraining from taking life, without stick or sword." Digha Nikaya 1:1.8
Jesus: "Those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will save it." Mark 8:35
Buddha: "With the relinquishing of all thought and egotism, the enlightened one is liberated through not clinging." Majjhima Nikaya 72:15
Jesus: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you." Matthew 28:19-20
Buddha: "Teach the dharma which is lovely at the beginning, lovely in the middle, lovely at the end. Explain with the spirit and the letter in the fashion of Brahma. In this way you will be completely fulfilled and wholly pure." Vinaya Mahavagga 1:11.1
1) Wisdom is not found in a book.
2) You are more than chemical energy.
3) You care about others.
4) You cannot become more wise than God.
5) Cause and effect is just a stepping stone without a cause.
6) Your life has value because you are alive.
I could go on, I am hoping you get "IT".
All worship the all powerful "IT". IT creates consciousness, IT is mindless, IT contains cause and effect, IT landed on the moon, IT created reality, IT is raining, IT is not like a stupid god or something.
All worship the all powerful IT, we know IT is not God because we already know its an IT. I like IT because I don`t like God.
You are trying to engage others to help save yourself - this is impossible. Your conscious is the only thing that can save you and wonder of wonders, it has desire and will.
You still do not get it. You cannot ignore your very own conscious and find Truth.I agree that debating religious beliefs which are rooted in empiricism (e.g. God is a big grandfather in the sky) is a waste of time.It is like debating whether aliens exist on other planets. There is no means of resolving the matter through simple discussion. It is ultimately a matter of science and empirical observation to resolve one way or the other, if indeed it can be resolved at all.
You take what is written and put it to the test - duh.
You have made the conclusion God is mindless, that is not logic, that is denial. Do you have a mind?
Except; you ignore logic when it overturns your baseless conclusions.However, there is benefit in discussing those types of religious or philosophical issues which are purely logical in nature. For these can be resolved via discussion and logical analysis. And indeed, this is what Genius Forum is primarily about.
1)You have a mind and intellect.
2)You experience reality.
3)Reality is impossible without experience.
4)You perceive the Totality.
Therefore God is mindless? The conclusion does not match a single premise you build upon.
You are antireason and antirational and in conflict with your very own existence.For example, if "God" were to be defined as the totality of all there is, then His existence would automatically be proven.
God is meta mind - that, is the irreducible and irrefutible if you actually use cold hard logic.
You resent the Christian God and therefore reject scripture - that is irrational.I should point out, though, that a wise person might still have valid reasons for rejecting wise scripture - not so much as far as his own understanding is concerned, but if he sees people being too attached to a particular scripture, or if they are misunderstanding it.
You misunderstand almost all scripture - you are now playing the "I am smarter than you game."
I am not impressed.
The problem is; you do not understand most of the scripture - that is obvious to anyone who does. You twist it into irrational babble because you want to undermine Christians.For example, if he comes across a spiritual person who is too locked into the Christian mindset for his own good and has consequently closed himself off to other modes of perception, then he might think it worthwhile to speak against the scripture, or, at the very least, put the scripture into its proper context.
That is just as agenda ridden as any other fundy.
I thought, just a couple of months ago he did. It was posted as fact. If he does not, cool. I was trying to help by maintaining his PH.He doesn't really have cancer. But nonetheless, he could die at any moment
Dan:
So reality is reformatting a computer?Have you not felt something when you have lost people Dan?
I felt something when I had to reformat my computer this morning (only to discover it didn't solve the problem). But this is only because I am not perfectly de-egotised. I am still not perfectly dwelling in Reality. That is the real point.
You're wanting the best of both world's there I think. Emotions aren't counter-enlightenment only in the sense that if they are not occuring too potently, thought can occur. Beyond that the truth is emotions just don't arise in the actual enlightened state because the fuel for them to ignite is absent - i.e. ego and notions of self-related loss/gain etc. David and Sue would only feel such personal pain to the extent that they are imperfect.
Mind numbing incantations of dogma regardless. They only seduce you through hypnoticsm by the technique of escapism. You are enslaved to a robot like existence that has no basis in actual reality. It is an idealized reality that exists only as a concept.
You are living under the tyranny of a robust philosophy that conditions you to believe you can be antihuman, feel nothing, and helps you to live a sacreligious life.
I respect you Dan - but you have bought a sales pitch that is empty of understanding and logic. You can be immune to resentment and unforgiveness but you cannot experience beyond all emotion. You may only transcend harmful and addictive emotion.
It does not matter that we disagree so much as we are clear as to where we disagree.
The scripture is almost never clearly understood by those that seek to devalue its timeless wisdom - just intentionally mangled as regard to its meaning.
Syntax and semantics are two entirely different things. Syntax is the proper response to the execution of the language, with or without meaning. Semantics is cognizing the meaning.
You could be in a room that translates Chinese. You could receive messages, look up in a translator book the proper response to the syntax and send it.
That does not mean you understand the coded message at all - it just means you used the code without the meaning. You could even make the staement that Chinese, after using it, makes no sense and is meaningless. You would be void of understanding Chinese if you make this statement even after using it in a coherent way.
