FAT TURKEY-

You say drama drives purpose and your drama is boredom, and your purpose is to have fun.  

What about people whose drama is poverty, or they were raped repeatedly by a priest, or they were born with down syndrome?  What is their purpose?

I reject every notion of God.

There is no divine purpose.

There is no perfect being.

How can you prove that the very essence of existence is the NEED to be happy?

Since I don't believe in God, I can't justify my chaotic life with some divine purpose.  As such, I believe it is my duty as a human to find answers, solve riddles, to persevere, to struggle towards whatever purpose I have.  

In my experience on Earth, I have never done anything that fulfilled me; e.g., accomplishing something is invigorating of course but then I say: "what's next?"  I am never fulfilled, I always want more.  The only thing that has ever been satisfying is the struggle.

I don't think God made us because he was bored or incomplete.  I think a perfect God would be complete with or without drama.  If he was going to create anything, he would create more perfect beings.  Think about it like this:  have you ever got tired of playing with your little sister/brother?  I'm sure God would feel the same way.  He would probably rather create beings that are on the same level as him.  (Does that mean that God is an imperfect dramatic person?)

Anyways, I think that if our life has meaning, it is to accomplish things.  We struggle so we will overcome, and we are passionate about struggling so we will continue to struggle.

THE ALPHAOMEGA:

Many people who visit this forum share your frustration.  They come here because they're seeking answers; they don't have any other resources to find these things out.  

I don't think you're asking the right questions.  Until you know what's right for you, your life will be meaningless.  But mine isn't.  I take my posts very seriously, and you should too.  

What did you expect to find here?  Do you want someone to tell you how to fix your problems with your life?  First, you need a nap and a sandwich.  Then get some exercise and listen to Pantera.  Finally, confront all of the people who bring you down and don't back down until you are proved right or wrong.  Stop waiting for some spiritual message to give you passion in your life, it's not coming.  

I agree with you, other people are a joke.  But thank your lucky stars that you're you, not them

I didn't mean to be a conversation stopper, I really wanted to get a lot of other people's opinions.

In fact, I planned on making most of you really mad and getting a lot of furious responses.

Does this mean none of you have anything to say?  You don't care that I don't think God was created?  That I'm influencing other people to think my way?

Which part is way above my head?  
How about the part about how God always justifies his existence with a riddle:

"I am that I am...

"I am the beginning and the end...but they're the same thing...

"The first will be last, and the last will be first...

"God simply is...duh...

He obviously didn't get far by justifying his proof with the conclusion, so he got a little further with his "the check is in the mail" attitude:

"First, you were all born slaves to free will, but you screwed that up so for a while you were all born slaves to sin, but since Christ died you're a slave to both.  But your reward is in heaven!  Whoo-hoo!  It's a party up in here!

In other words...

"You're all born sinners and even though I created you it's not my fault you sin, it's yours.  So if you worship me, I might let you into heaven.  If you don't worship me, or you do it half-butt, then I'll torture you for all eternity in hell.  Just remember, it's your choice, I'm not forcing you to worship me with an altimatum."

But then he bails out when you need him:

"Dear God, my recent injury has prevented me from working and we've run so low on money that I've lost my house, my car, and my wife.  My kids wear dirty clothes and always get in trouble at school.  I can't afford physical therapy, but without it I will never be well enough to work.  What do I do?"

No answer from God

"Dear God.  I need you so bad right now."

No answer.  Things just get worse, and God pretends not to hear you.

Let's pretend he answers:

"HEAR ME SINNER.  I AM GOD, YOU CAN TELL BECAUSE I ALWAYS TALK IN CAPITAL LETTERS.  REPENT FOR YOUR SINS"

"But God I need help.  The finance manager at the bank wouldn't cut me any slack on my payments.  Then he stole my wife.  Just strike him down with lightning."

"YOUR REWARD IS IN HEAVEN.  I WILL TORTURE YOUR ENEMY FOR ALL ETERNITY IN HELL.  PRAY FOR FORGIVENESS."

and so on.  

But then again, when does God answer prayers?  

He's like an invisible purple unicorn.  In order for the invisible purple unicorn to exist, you need to have two things:  knowledge and faith.  You know the unicorn is invisible because you can't see it.  And you have faith that it's purple.  

We do the same thing with God.  We prove he exists with faith and write it as a riddle or a paradox then call it knowledge, then use that knowledge to justify our faith.

But the truth is written in the Bible, you might say.  Did God write the part about taking your son on the mountain and sacrificing him?  Did he write the part about enslaving your neighbor and enslaving them?  Did he write the part about making enormous temples out of gold even though there were thousands of people nearby who were starving?  Or did he only write the nice parts, the psalms and such.

All I know is this:  God will probably read this Internet post, because he is everywhere and he is personal, so I'd better repent for doing it.

Here goes:

Please forgive me for writing this letter, because I thunk bad thoughts.

Forgive me for telling my brother that the burning bush was a venereal disease.

Forgive me for wanting to make God-fearing marital love to Brittany Spears (if you know what I mean).

Finally, forgive me for not knowing which riddles to believe in.  They're definitely way over my head.

I was merlin in a previous life.

Why do you want to contact him?

If I created 8 billion people, I might be courteous enough to explain to them what happened, instead of leaving them guessing and arguing about it for billions of years.  That is, if I was a good god.  If I was an evil god, I would find a lot of humor in all of this scrambling around.

Before I prove to you I exist, I'll teach you how to spell convince.  

Maybe I just did both?

if an occultist may be a mystic, the who loves life breath?  listen to echo, he's hella smart.  also, who cares what the difference is?  They're the same look it up, tbe definitions are based on perspective.

Whenever someone loans you 1 dollar, pay me back 3 dollars.  That's the only rule I know.

There's no such thing as modern christianity, since the whole history is so tainted by murder, war, censorship, sex (the bible is a very sexy book, I don't know why christians are so uptight about sex) sacrafice, etc.  My favorite verses are about how we should enslave our neighbor and force them to be christians or kill them.  how about the verses saying how we should be content to be slaves since our reward is in heaven?  

If we all need faith and hope, lets find it wherever.  Some people find it in relgion, others in terrorism.  If it gives me faith and hope, let me strap bombs on my body and blow up whoever I think is my enemy.

Just don't hurt my feelings.

Why do you have to prove God exists?  Why doesn't God do it?  is he too busy to profve he exists?

to paraphrase nonsense about this argument:  cs lewis is still cs lewis even when spoken about about god.  That's right, you tackled my so called "nonsense" with more nonsense.  God just is?  I am that I am?  I might as well say it.  

I just am.

Do I sound like God?

How about "I have a butt so I can have a butt?"

i guess it only works when God says It.

I HAVE A BUTT SO I CAN HAVE A BUTT!

Is that more like it?

How do you sing it?  Is it a straight time beat, a waltz, a mariachi, disco, standard or what?

hey noonan, I hope you don't have noonan syndrome.

Remember strength comes from yourself mostly, and defending from psychic attack is most effective when you understand yourself, and the psychic attacks are an effective way to understand yourself.  It's very important for other people to help you, if they can, but you should focus on yourself first and focus on the attacks last.

the last time I laid down next to a crazy white woman, I woke up an my wallet was gone.

Hey,crazy columbian gang, it's impossible to think about nothing because when you think about "nothing" your brain quantifies it into something but what is nothing if it's something?

In order to think about nothing, you have to stop thinking.  But if you stop, how will you start again?

If you try not to think you will most likely fail at it, plus it doesn't accomplish much.

Instead, try to think about something.  Robert Bruce recommends you stare at a wall or something.  

When I meditate I stare at pamela anderson nude, unless she's busy then I stare at a picture of her nude.  It really helps me focus.

alt0xFF: don't listen to these fools, you have a great idea even though I think your name is stupid.

What does it mean?

Maybe it's because I'm not arc the lad...but why don't I know of the Ark?  What's the difference between the arc and the ark?

So the next time I fight a neg, do you recommend I throw pretend knives at it, try to melt it,  or unleash my wrath without fail with my elastic rubber band arm?

I think maybe some of us should get together and "spar" in the psychic realm to work on our astral sword fighting and chinese counter curses.  Seriously.

What do you think?

I don't know how to get anywhere just debating where God came from and whether he exists, because I don't know anything about him as an individual.  Is he perfect?  Is he everywhere?  Is he everywhen?  Is he good or evil?  

If he is a perfect, all knowing, all seeing, perfect God, then he obviously came from everywhere and nowhere (which is somewhere) and does everything by doing nothing because he is perfect.

But I have no reason, no empirical reason to believe he's perfect.  If God was perfect he wouldn't have split up jerry rice and joe montana from the 49ers.  He would strike down the backstreet boys with fire and brimstone, and he would have started one religion instead of a million.

I don't know where he came from but he can go to hell.

If God create a rock that is too heavy to move then obviously he can't move it and he's not all-powerful.  If he can't create the rock, then he's not all powerful...

If he's not all powerful, then is he God?

I should have been more clear.

I'm not interested in what religious texts say, I want to know what you guys have found out for yourselves in your journeys.  What have you seen in your visions, maybe you don't even think there is a war.  But it is important to me to get feedback.

Thanks fellas, I really appreciate the feedback.

I don't want to complicate things, but lately I've been dreaming about being in the dark black 3D void, and skipping the whole death experience.  I haven't had a death dream in almost a year and that's unusual.

The difference between the dark place I go when I sleep and the dark place I go when I meditate is the feeling.

In my dreams it feels vacant, empty, not lonely, but there's nobody there, not even me (ooh...creepy).  It feels like life is over for everybody, forever.  That's the only way I can explain it.

Now I'm even more confused.
