My god doesn't have a name. My god doesn't have a gender. My god is not the God of the Bible, nor the Koran, ... etc. My god is not the god of religion. My god does not control my destiny. My god is the sum of all that is good in the universe. All that is in harmony is god. One of the few "formal" belief systems that has some valid truth for me id that of the Dineh (Navajo) who's goal in life os not to dominate nature, but to live in harmony with it. Chidren born with horrible diseases is not the fault of god or the devil, but the fault of damaged genetics, or contaminated enviroment. God does not interfere in the lives of man despite what all the books of religious myth tell us. God in my opinion is more like a force than an entity. All the miracles that I have heard of and the few I have actualy seen, were not the deliberate act of a supernatural being. It is my opinion that the mind of humans is capable of acting as a conduit for the power that is god which is then directed to create "Miracles". I believe this is the same power that has been attributed to telekenesis.
Ok, this is where everyone gets to start calling me a kook or loony, but I think that George Lucas may have had something similar in mind when he created the concept of "The Force" for the Star Wars movies.

If something good happens to me it is because I have chosen the path of harmony. If something bad happens to me it's because I have chosen the path of chaos.
Harmony = God
Chaos = Devil
Those are my definitions and my opinions only.

God has always been eternal. He has never changed. The only thing that has changed is man's definition of God which seems to change as man looks for new and better ways to control other men.

doctors have began prescribing suicide as a way out of pain saying that this medical avenue should have been recommended many more times in the past.
Joel,
I've read your posts in the past and we've exchanged a few. All though no one here knows your circumstances as well as you do, I think I know at least the general direction your coming from.
I've been at this point questioning the pros and cons of continued existence right after my divorce. I was bitter, dissapointed, and pissed off at the injustises I saw heaped upon my life. The more people tried to reasure me of the value of my continued existence the less I heard. From my perspective they all sounded so insincere. No matter what they said, all I heard was their desperate need not to have my death on their concience. They sounded so selfish.
I was pissed that all the hard work I had put into this life had just seemd to have gotten me nowhere, and all of these selfish assholes who wanted me to continue to suffer so they wouldn't have to deal with my death. It felt like they were just trying to lay one more guilt trip on me that I didn't need. I was ready for it all to end.
I decided that the one concession I would make to the feelings of my friends and family, was that I would do it somewhere that where a stranger would find me, and notify the authorities. I went to a public park in a nearby town with a full bottle of valium with the intent of taking the whole thing.
While I was sitting on a bench in the park looking at the bottle of pills I saw a little boy of about two or three plaing in the grass. No toys or anything, just running around and sometimes spinning in circles. I noticed him mom standing a ways off. She looked to be a piece of work, torn nasty looking clothes, hair that looked it hadn't been washed in a week. She looked like she was trying to do a drug deal or something with some biker guys.
I looked at the little boy and thought "What a stupid little fuck, doesn't even have a clue what a load of shit life has in store for him, if he did we wouldn't be having such a great time." Then I looked at him again, and thought he doesn't care because he doesn't know. His skanky ass mom is off trying to score some dope, he probably lives in some hell hole dive, but he's running and spinning and has a huge ass grin on his face. This kid was happy for no reason whatsoever I could see.
That's when things started to make sense to me a little bit to me. I can't realy describe it, but I sort of realized what people who meditate mean when the talk about "living in the now". This kid was definatley living in the now.
Focus on the things that bring you pleasure right now and do them. For me at that moment it was going to the nearest fast food joint and eating the biggest greasiest cheesburger I could get, and thinking just how good it tasted. I decided not to worry about my happiness tomorrow or the next day, or the day after that. Fuck tomorrow, because today is all you have have. Everytime I slide down into that dark place, I think about what I can do to bring myself a little pleasure and then focus on it, and tomorrow will take care of it's self.
I'm not saying that is the right thing for you Joel. I just wanted you to know I've been there too. I haven't shared this part of my life with anyone here before, but thought it might be of some help. My email is open dude, drop me a note with your phone number and we can talk.

Lemme clue you in on a few things about your SPAM N Park. You did not post this on two seperate boards, merely two diferent forums on the SAME BOARD. The reason this is SPAM,(other than the fact that most of the resonders are anoyed by your strident bleating) is because you have the same exact message wasting space on one server. If I were the host of this board I would be pretty annoyed that a lenghty post like this is stored on precious strage media twice.

here's a program i'll definitely want to see on november 22nd.
it seems that there are some archeologists that have done some investigating around roswell, to see if there's any evidence of a crash there 50 years ago.. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story2&cid=570&ncid=753&e=1&u=/nm/20021116/sc_nm/life_ufo_dc.
i believe that a ufo did in fact, crash there in 1947 and that there was a cover up.. if it were proven that it was a ufo, how would that affect our society, religion in particular?.
Why do they have to from another planet? Why not from another dimension? How about vistors from the future?
Anton
well now that i have your attention, just how big is the turkey your going be serving for thanksgiving?
and what do you serve with it?
name your favorite side dishes.
I helping serve T-Day dinner at the homeless shelter In San Luis Obispo, CA this year. Before you start applauding my altruism though I have to admit I'm partialy doing this for selfish reasons. My daughter and son are spending the holliday with my ex and her family and this way I get a sumptious dinner and when I get home ther is no cleanup involved. Truly a win-win situation for everyone.
