Heck, Why Stop At One? (page 3)

Tammy, if someone was showing all the signs of a documented condition of cancer, and they didn't want to get professional help, or even a diagnosis to confirm or disconfirm, and not only that - but continued to say their symptoms were actually healthy, would the ones pointing out the obvious and hoping they get help really be haters?

What if it was a brain trauma that caused hallucinations? Everybody pointing out that such ones need serious help are haters???

Wow - some people really do live their real life in sci-fi movies.

No. You didn't say anything. You made no point whatsoever.

I "said" quite a bit, dear HOL (again, peace to you!)... and made a couple of points, actually. That you didn't GET the point is no reason to get nasty...

Reality is not a bunch of bullshit riddles.

What riddles? Oh, you mean my points... that you didn't get. No, I spoke plainly, dear one.

Reality is right in front of your nose.

So says those who swallow the blue pill, yes.

Reality is the facts laid in front of your eyes that you are blind yourself with fantasies to admit.

I disagree. There are a whole lot of facts that are NOT laid out in front of our eyes.

Try again.

Why? You still wouldn't get it, but that's due to your deficiency, not mine.

PS - I love how your quote says "God damn it"

Noooo... it does not. Please, take another look, dear JIFB (peace to you!)...

- that sounds like such a perfect reflection of a christlike illustration.

Ummmm... the "christlike" part would be Morpheus' response, dear one, not Locke's exclamation. But then, we both know that your point is "Omigosh (notice, I said "gosh")... she's saying "gawdammit while giving a 'christlike illustration!" I'm not a prude, dear one, but your position is oh, so WTBTS-ish of you, though...

All the ones that cuss are my favorite modern day Jesus correlations.

Ummmm... first, I didn't cuss (or curse), but only quoted a movie line that did. Second, where is it written, "Thou shalt not cuss"? And please, please, don't give me that "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord in vain" or whatever the verse is. "Gawd" is not the name of the Most Holy One of Israel. And "dammit" would only be cursing if there was someone being damned... which there wasn't ("it" is not a person).

It really reaches out to the kids, shows them just how hip Jesus was.

Throwing stones, are we, dear JIFB? Seriously? I am not a perfect reflection of Christ, dear one. I am not even fit to ties his shoe laces. Even so, I don't think he'd have a problem that I quoted a movie line that included the word "gawdammit" in it. That YOU have a problem with it is... well, quite interesting. Probably hypocritical, too...

Hell,

Oh, wait! You used the word, "hell"! So, yep, you're a bit of a hypocrite, aren't ya? (And so, neener, neerner, neerner to you, too!)

Jesus wasn't just gangsta, he was an all out pimp.

Really. That's the best you can do. I start a thread, you comment, I respond, you don't like (and probably didn't get) my response... and so now you gotta call Christ names: gangsta and pimp, and all. Well, yeah, you're probably right: I'm probably not the one who'll most likely impress the kids. You know, 'cause I don't talk all "cool" and "thug" and all.

Well, I still bid you both peace... however "lame" that might be and "riddle-like" that might sound.

A slave of Christ,

SA, shaking head...

Are you pointing it out in concern, or in a concerning manner? Do you think that you can 'diagnose' Shelby, over the internet, better than say her husband who sees her every day, or her adult children, or her other friends/family/co-workers... even the people off this board who speak to her and on occasion meet with her in person?

(And I was just being silly with the 'haters gotta hate' Obama thingy, so please don't take that personally... although aren't you being are being much more personal in what you're doing with Shelby? Or are you just being silly also? Because I'm not sure what you think you're going to accomplish here?)

But again... it was just a quote from a movie, used as an analogy. No reason for any fuss at all.

No - I didn't miss the point at all - I added another quote from the same movie that made a point which totally contradicted the OP. Kind of like how that can be done all the time in the Bible. I thought this thread was about Matrix quotes. I added my favorites. The quotes were pretty obvious in how they could be applied to all religous beliefs - so much so that poor dear child AG felt the need to twist the quotes to match her dilusions in a way that makes no sense. Kind of like many personal revelationists do with the Bible. So as she kind of twisted things from there, I just rode with it. In the end though, it comes back to made up characters in her mind and the proper spelling of them, etc. etc. which in turn leads to anybody that sees these symptoms of her pretending hallucinations are real, giving her yet another not-so-subtle hint at her need to get real professional help. Sorry if the truth hurts.

What was there to contradict, JIFB?

Her beliefs do not require that you believe them as well.

There is nothing TO contradict there.

For some reason, you just don't seem to like that she is allowed to quote from the matrix to help illustrate a point (even though people use analogies in discussions every day...).

Tammy

Let me just point out that the matrix is 100% fantasy.

Let me just point out that the matrix is 100% fantasy.

And...?

Everyone here knows that. Someone else posted a quote from Shawshank Redemption earlier today and applied it to jw's and ex-jw's... 'get busy living or get busy dying'. That's fiction too... but people got the analogy, thought it was a good point, and all from something that was fiction.

Perhaps "contradict" was not the best word. But the quotes I presented apparently didn't resonate with AG's personal revelations - otherwise, why try to make some wierd twist on them to fit her viewpoint? But as lime says, the movie is 100% fantasy, just like her revelations - so you and AG are right. One fantasy can fit in with another, in any way that the hallucinator wants them to. Link them all up. Correlate them. Show their parallels. In the end, they are all just fantasy. Thank you Lime.

Oh and AG, I promise you dear sweet honey child (Anarchy to you), I am not offended by profanity. I really do love it when it's intertwined into modern-day Jesus-linked stories. I mean it, it adds a new kind of meaning of Jesus for me.

A Master over Christ,

LOL.

Seriously?

You put your viewpoint into those quotes by with your 'additions'. You twisted it to suit your view. THEN Shelby responded with her viewpoint to counter your own.

Tammy

I have to go to bed. G'Night all.

You know I hear you, Shelby ... and I think most others do too, even if they don't agree WITH your analogy; they at least don't have a problem with you using one.

Peace to all,

Tammy
