For when one reaches a certain level within the capitalistic system you suddenly find yourself in a position where either your regard for The Truth takes the back seat as profit(greed) drives, or you get out of the vehicle and walk!

Thankfully i walked away from all i had dreamed of at the age of 39.

Father Help! and HE does.......

And i seek and desire not to be "a healthy human being", but i seek and desire above all else that which The Messiah desired above all else:

"Father, not my will, But THY Will Be Done!"

And yes, there have been times, good times, when i had not a penny in my pocket or in an account.

As for the amish, yes i appreciate their simple non-destructive ways regarding Creation, and their loyalty to family and community, yet liken unto the pharisee's they live of their ordung(law) and each amish community has their own version of ordung(order) )-;

Our Father and GOD, HE did not create clones!

And "it is not in man to order his own steps".......

Yet needs be one desires above all else that which The Messiah desired above all else:

"Father, not my will, But THY Will Be Done!"

One who believes otherwise yet has an "uncircumcised heart" )-;

There are no real tangible applications in what you said, do you live in a cabin in the woods, everyone has to exist somewhere and most places are inhospitable to human beings either too hot or too cold or there are unsanitary conditions, etc. That is why technology was developed. So I struggling to see what meaning your posts have. The garden of eden no longer exists so we must work to generate income to live, your posting this on a computer so obvously your not doing too bad. The fact that you are using a computer means that you accept the decades of development and tech that went into them, computers are arguably the most complex piece of equipment man kind has ever made, the micro processor is one of the tech wonders of the world .... and your using it

I lived in varying degrees of 'asceticism' for many years.
When Jesus Christ saved me, I discovered that all of the former was spiritual pride.

Eph 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

You know what is tired? LA, not that place, I would not know about that, I mean the character here of TOL. He gave me a neg, and said I was pugnacious? Should I swat him, or leave him to his thoughts?

Simply sad for you )-;

Yet while breath is, HOPE IS!

For TRUTH IS!
