No, she will not be back.

We are e-mail friends.

She is one of the true, blue Christian. She does not trust Paul either.

do you remember Glenda?

GM is giving away valuable white substances for free. It's like gold and is very very healthy. Sad he is gaining black de.

Ya know, it wouldn't hurt you, to post like a "normal" type of
person! I think you try hard to 'impress' people with your
usage of the 'proper English language!' You're always using
huge words and phrases to point to the idea that, you are
the "Keeper of all hidden knowledge!"

Can't you just talk to people? Do you find it necessary to act
as if you're writing a 'scholarly book' or teaching a group of
YOUR students?

Thank you for adding me
Best,

Thank you, friend.
Very best regards;

Thank you, blessing to you too, brother.

Cool, he does make one ponder the scripture in a metaphysical way, the brain connection with the scripture really opens up the ancient prototype that points inwardly for the answers to what, why, and where.

no other name.

I'm interested but I respond to simpler things but I'll try. Calvinism us backed by Bible Quotes so It's the quotes alone that convinces me.

As a sifu, I translate to my American students what Qi is and does for free. In the emei temple, they taught the Qi moves the body, not the mind. In Wuji forms, we clear and empty the mind in Qigong state. Empty minds don't move the body, Qi does. If you and I were to have a conversation about Urantia, you as a teacher, you ought to bring it to my level where I can understand it.

Namaste. Hope you are doing well.

Hi freelight,

The trouble with faith is it's blind unreliability at discovering genuine truth. In what should one put his/her faith? The answer invariably is what one likes and wishes for, as if reality would bend and conform to any ones wanton beliefs, especially when those beliefs have been passed down from antiquity. In my experience the more far-fetched the faith-based beliefs are the more likely they are to be fake. So I dismiss assertions without evidence. Scepticism works for me and so I'm happy

Yep, I've been concentrating on music a lot of late. I'm quite prolific and music I produce isn't every ones cup of tea but every now and then I come out with a good one. Keeps me sane I think

All the best :thumb:

Hello Paul, how have you been?

Okay. Thanks for the forum info, I appreciate it! Is this better?
Oh, and thanks for the sweet compliment, too. You made my day.

I only know English

Cathartic in the sense that I no longer feel the cognitive dissonance I was feeling while holding on to the faith and because I think I am being honest with myself by letting that go and taking this path. I find myself, my mind...at ease in that regard. But not cathartic in the "I am so happy to be rid of that thing!" sense, if you get my meaning.

Yeah Esoteric are a terrific band, they unfold such massive and complex landscapes with their sound. Very immersive, very intense. You get lost in their songs.

Figured you might enjoy it, lots of symbolism and Tool has some interesting lyrics :) Ride the spiral.
