  An Indictment against GOD , A blood sacrifice or a non blood sacrifice.Cain & Abel.

  by smiddy in

  i would appreciate your thoughts on this question : why would the almighty god sacrifice one of his creations in blood letting to appease him ?.

  does this make any sence at all ?

  god is supposed to have created everything living , human and animals , and then he wants / expects a human to execute one of his creations as a sacrifice to him ?.

  Do you know that taking the Bible as the literal word of God is a relatively new thing?

  Shouldnt he be condemning the one who took the life of one of his creations ? And be praising the one who offered a grain offering ?

  How do you know he isn't? We know the Bible isn't written by God, so why try to make sense of God, by reading it? If you can figure out how nonsensical creature sacrifice is, then surely God finds those passages in the Bible that deal with sacrifice, non sensical, too.

  And women are so vindictive. They think that they are righteous because they are the "innocent" party but vindictiveness is not righteous.

  Well, paint women with one broad brush why don't you? How are women vindictive?

  Most of the time in a marriage, there is no innocent mate. There are all kinds of vows that can be broken in a marriage, but adultery is the one people freak out about.

  i've always wondered that.

  recently i asked that question on another thread and didn't really get ananswer.

  cofty made an excellent point that we often hear what it isn't, but that really isn't useful.. so, what is it?

  Well, you of mediocre perceptive powers, couldn't be further off on this assessment, Viv.

  FHN, you just proved, again, exactly my point. You are contributing nothing but failed attempts to put me down.

  Not putting you down, just being honest here: you completely failed at grasping why I made the comment about deja vu.

  I'm going to be honest here: I don't find you inferior. I do however find you a good bit prissy.

  Another failed attempt. Still contributing nothing.

  You come across as being prissy. It's not going to help you to be taken seriously by people who see through your approach.

  Be honest, Londo, did you ever feel comfortable with the idea that Jehovah would off billions of people on a technicality? I sure didn't. I would often ponder and lament about people, not famous and famous that I liked so much and didn't think deserved such a fate. I used to think, "Wow, this new system thing would be so much better served if billions didn't need to be offed. But rather Jehovah just stepped in and said, 'Okay, enough already you earthlings. Now it's time to straighten this mess out. Looka here, I'm in charge from now on. We're gonna fix all the stuff you messed up and get things going right. While I'm at it, I'm going to fix all of you, too. I'm the high anti-oxidant god. I'm going to stop those free radicals in their tracks and make sure you have all the right neurotransmitters and stuff.' "

  Complete deja vu. Wow.

  FHN, you yet again manage to contribute nothing while desperately trying to fine a way to feel superior to everyone.

  Well, you of mediocre perceptive powers, couldn't be further off on this assessment, Viv.

  That was a genuine deja vu. I've seen nearly those exact same comments, on a different thread, between Cailber and Jgnat before. I'm being way serious here. I had to do a double take.

  Just to kind of make an effort to clear this up for your relatively newbie self, Caliber and I go way back and we know each other off the board. My comment was for him. Do think you think it even slightly possible that you are taking yourself and this thread too seriously? Like you've uttered over and over again, ad nauseum, this thread isn't about you.

  I'm going to be honest here: I don't find you inferior. I do however find you a good bit prissy.

  There is good in the world and bad in the world. There is good in people and there is bad in people. There is good in government and bad in government. There is good in religion and there is bad in religion.

  Sociopathic behavior in religion, politics and government happens right along with good, alutruistic behaviors. I see a lot of good and a lot of bad.

  It's a good, even essential life skill to be able to sort out the sociopaths and their machinations, from the good, positive people and their efforts to contribute good things to us as individuals and to society and nature.

  Why does it seem that some see emotion as an enemy? - caliber

  Just because I don't use emotion to clinically review an unknown subject does not make emotion the enemy. Emotions can be very useful. Not so useful to rocket scientists or nuclear plant engineers. jgnat

  Complete deja vu. Wow.

  For those who feel that their life has been stolen

  by stillin in

  you maintained a level of personal decency and integrity that you almost certainly would not have had if you had chosen another direction.. sure, you would have had some very "colorful" friends and experiences if you had gone another way, but you still chose the more "edgy" people in the congregation as your friends and you still enjoyed yourself, even if there were a lot of phony constraints.. you looked for ways to be of value to others.

  don't stop doing that!.

  you kept the darker side of your personality in check.

  Our lives were commandeered, our choices affected to the point that many of us stand in ruins, trying to put our lives back together and on a better course.

  Sociopaths are masters are presenting themselves as heroes with high morals and philosophy, yet underneath it they are the true criminal minds in society who steal, undermine, deceive, and often incite emotional chaos among entire communities. They are masters at turning one group of people against another group while proclaiming themselves to be the one true savior. Wherever they go, they create strife, argument and hatred, yet they utterly fail to see their own role in creating it. They are delusional at so many levels that their brains defy logical reasoning.
