Except that the globalists are not atheists, but Luciferian (atheists are not accepted in Freemasonry because of that, they are required to believe at least in the supernatural, otherwise they wouldn't worship Lucifer).
If they'd read the following link, atheists would be apologizing to you:
Really! who would have thought that atheists we such Sensitive Sally's. Sheese... They should try being practicing Catholic's under the Bergogolio Shade.
Exactly, the dreaded political correctness continuum that gave us Wonky Woke Wally World where no actual opinions are allowed - in case they offend someone.
Regarding atheists, there are several senses of the word. Most object to the concepts of "god" that have been pounded into us (by corporate religion) all of our lives. I think many are not commenting on the mysteries of the universe but rather on the attempts to exploit people's trust with false and self-serving notions.
Many who would say they are "atheists" have a spiritual sense, or have faith in the intelligence of nature. There are also humanists, for whom faith in humanity in some form is essential to their reality framework.
I wonder what is going on with those who feel that there is no more to existence available than what we see in ordinary observable reality. However, if one is really paying attention to that, there is quite a lot that defies explanation and understanding. Nobody needs to believe anything as an a priori requirement; being curious and open minded are quite enough to have what you might think of as spiritual experiences that become important teachers.
I've always found those who say they are athiests are really agnostic.... atheism is more a dogma being anti-god after all who can know there is no god except by faith, dogmatic faith
No, atheism is simply an absence of belief in gods. One cannot be against something that they don't believe exists. It's not the case that atheists are undecided whether gods could exist. All of the gods so far proposed are clearly self-contradictory and nonsensical. It's easy to dismiss all of them and add them to the ranks of mythological. Atheists disbelieve in your god in the same way that you disbelieve in all the other gods.
believing something doesn't exist is a belief or dogma..... asserting that a person is an atheist as I saidis a misnomer as without a faith, belief or dogma a person could only be an agnostic, lacking belief not being committed to a belief
Most atheists do NOT believe or assert that gods don't exist. They simply lack a belief in gods. Claiming that atheism is a belief system is akin to claiming that not collecting stamps is a hobby or that not playing football is a sport. But nice try.
LOL.... they are agnostic, they don't know... an atheist has a belief in the non-existence of god or gods or a superior or supreme being... its not a neutral position
You're confusing knowledge with belief. I suggest you look up the definition of both terms. An atheist does not believe that gods exist whereas an agnostic states they don't know. What you're doing is redefining the terms by stating that an atheist has a belief in the non-existence of gods.
As an atheist, I have been deeply troubled by the ban to attend church services during the past three years. I know that there is much more to existence that what we see in ordinary observable reality. I know that nature has its own amazing intelligence. My prayers have been answered in the past.
There is a lot of wisdom in the Bible. Celia has just mentioned that a man should not try to be God. According to the Bible, when the Antichrist takes power, he will conquer the whole world, joining all governments under his sole authority. I agree that one world government is a really bad thing.... Still, I am an atheist.
Sonja ~ You are a wonderful thinker upon such things which does place you in a bit of a quagmire, owing to your heart and mind and sight! :)
If you were on an operating table and the surgeon opened your heart, there would be no evidence at all of the love you hold deep inside of it. If that same surgeon was to open your skull, there would be no evidence at all of the millions of memories you store neatly inside of your mind. If the surgeon cut into your eyes, there would be no evidence at all of every vision you’ve ever captured throughout your life, yet, I can say with certainty that you do carry love in your heart, you do have stored up memories in your mind and you have seen the world with your eyes, yet, if asked, you can not prove any of it.
When I tell you that I know that there is a God, because His Holy Spirit dwells within me, though I can’t prove it to you, just as I can’t show you what’s in my heart or head or what I’ve seen with my own eyes, I can just tell you the truth, that He is in me and I am in Him.
As you continue to read the chapters in the most published literary documentation known to man, there you will find the source of all wisdom, culminating in what it means to be human and one of God’s children, as it is written In Corinthians 1:13, and that is to love!
No shi.... If one cannot believe in God, and that He can in fact be Really Present in a speck of bread, in this day and age when I can communicate across the world on a little devise in my hand or microwave food in an aluminum box - or be microwaved by the malicious government and greedy oligarchs if I attend a rally - than I really pity them. I mean electricity is ... uncanny.
So do we all have to apologize for having an opinion? Speak your mind, if others wish to take offence they will do so no matter what. And in the matter of atheism -- a 'true' atheist is someone who is certain there is no higher power or force or God or god, whatever one wishes to call it, which is a position that is as ludicrous as it is unscientific. It is a position of belief. Agnosticism is the humbler and more realistic alternative.
If you saw the emails, so full of rage. They're too angry even to unsubscribe themselves. I have to do it for them. But truth be told it is a very small number.
Celia, you cannot live and write trying to stick handle around people who may feel offended. Freedom of speech is what it is called and never mind the consequences. As to atheists, the people who have been good to me and actually allied with me in different battles were and are atheists or agnostics. My best client who throws thousand dollar tips at me is an atheist. The most stingy, sneaky and selfish people I know professed Christianity when there was nothing Christian about them at all and some of those include relatives I have estranged.
I hear you, keg. Few folks are more irritating to me than the woke, virtue-signalling, holier-than-thou churchgoers behind masks and jabbed up misguideds who don’t glean courage or sense of right/wrong or its detection. Real pope-followers! Their unchristian behaviour signals their inherent weakness, the sudden plandemic revealing their loyalty to the false god of Safety and Fairness.
I’m done trying to teach them anything; it makes them worse. Disengagement works.
We live in an altar egotistic insanity warp of monumental mental midgetry and woke wankerism where up is down, black is white, right is wrong, and wrong is right. What gives? Why of course the lack of courage and fidelity to the Truth where politically correct craziness holds sway over the biomASSES of those who have IQ's of minus four and the appeal of a green snot rocket hanging off a cold brass knob, screaming for help lest it fall. Stupid is forever and it cannot be fixed. (Carlin)
Amy, I think you would much better appreciate my anger woven here and there as guilded threads into the minor masterpieces of invective I author for the benefit of the "New Age Inquisitors" who think the way they see things is the only way that is right. They are somewhat right but stumble in their pride because there are only three ways to think and do things, the right way, the wrong way and the Canadian way. Unfortunately up here most do things the last two ways. Proof is that the mental midgets of the nation voted for Slime Minister Turdo, the grade five ASSistant drama teacher. His IQ of minus 4 and his appeal that would equate with a three day road kill maggot infested skunk carcass bloated with gases that makes it float two feet above the ground. In the USA is "bidet" the choice of ovomit and moochelle the Clydesdale. Many things in this wacky world are going to h*ll. Why? Dialectic secular humanism.
But Stevanovitch, it is a learned skill. You can equal and even best me. Did you know that Lincoln always read a dictionary? And I can wilfully be an ass at times of my own choosing especially with any one of the four women intellectuals in my life as close friends who actually as women go possess the nobler character traits over our male gender. I tend to be sapiosexual, (attracted to intelligent women) and these gals influence my abilities and rough house character to the good. Actually I was invited into their lives as a friend and became a close friend foundationally in relationships built on trust and respect. That is, their minds are my focus, and they love that. I do though on occasion have the dickens hugged out of me by one especially although I hate hugs (LIE!!! - see what I mean by being an ass) but soldier on tolerating them so as to humor these inner and outer women of pristine character excellence that beggars description. One once told me after one of my diatribes vilifying our "Slime" Minister that I was a "terrible man."
That gal has big brown eyes that announce her emotions. To fool her I played like I was sad and downcast. I noted her eyes misting (affection) and she quickly added "but I still cherish you Edward" to which I laughed that triggered her laughter to where I found her in my arms which I hated (BIG LIE AGAIN) ONCE AGAIN. hahaha
A few days later I was dining with another of them and told her of this. She looked at me straight with her piercing blue eyes and said, "You would not have fooled me! " (This then coming from the serial hugging gal who after we dined hugged the dickens out of me several times.)
I have been a fool "de temps en temps" but never more so than when I thought I was doing each of them more good than what I received from their company. In a state of abject emotional confession I told them all I had actually benefited more from their company than what I gave to them by way of encouragement, affectionate words of endearment and the utmost respect. As each of them told me over the short period of our initial interactions, talking at times for five hours straight in my car after going through a TH drive through for coffee and donuts, that they trusted me, my pat response was by saying "gal, do you realize when a woman trusts a man that it is but a short step away from having her love?"
Damn, once again smiles and more dreaded hugs suffered by yours truly, soldier of his own misfortunes. I just cannot win! Boo hoo! hahahahahahaha
But seriously, the closeness of these friendships was established by two things. I deal with women exclusively in my profession and have for decades and discovered they are all the same but all different. Hold your frilled drawers there, it is true and not an oxymoron.
But they are precious, far more so than they are treated, and to realize that, and to behave in a way that demonstrates it clearly, is a sign post to their proffered respect in return, connected to their affections and damn it all, more of those nasty hugs. hahahahaha
I will slide away from my humor now to seriously say that of the four I am close to, three were deserted by their husbands, and one as were the others, was abused much of her life until she found me and we became fast friends. I dare say I cherish each of them more than life, and a bad decision does not mean someone is stupid. In fact, all of these gals have to be in the top 1% of IQ in terms of intellectual prowess. One of them can weaponize her mind and focus on anyone to destroy them verbally. She can be terrifying. Yes you guessed it. She is the serial hugger!
It is 3:17 in the morn now, Sunday, when I leave to drive 50 miles to a real church with real people. I drive deserted backroads, using the time to introspect on my miserable carcass topped with an idea filled head overwhelmed with the insanity of it all. I stop to fuel up at a reservation where gasoline is over fifty cents a gallon cheaper which saves me a minimum of fifteen bucks. I then stop at a TH for refreshments by way of a drive through and then park to further introspect on myself critically for over an hour. Time interval? I leave at five in the morn, hit the reserve at six, hit TH at seven, and drive the rest of the way to church to arrive there an hour early for more introspection in that empty building.
I was raised by a Salvation Army mother, who married a Methodist, and taught to read by use of the Holy Bible. I credit that in a big way as attributable to my reading comprehension and writing abilities. I hate religions as most are man made but the worst religion that ever came from mental rejects was and is dialectic secular humanism aka political correctness aka woke wankerism. Yes it is a state religion. And practitioners have the average IQ of a candy cane and the appeal of a used snot rag.
The church I attend is a non denominational "Bible church" whose minister I sat under in men's Bible study for three months looking to find unscriptural errors as all man made religions are filled with. I found none....nadda. One night he told the class in summing up the state of affairs by saying, "Broken people in a broken world." THAT WAS IT! I knew I had found the right church to attend because that is the Truth. Some reading this have experienced it!
But I digress. I hate this site because nobody gives me a chance to speak/write. hahahahaha Just being an ass again.
The wind initially woke me but has subsided. I am going back to slumber land to have more nightmares of those four women abducting me only to keep me in a secret room to be a hug slave, Oh the horrors!!!
And finally, what an ass I am!!! hahahaha And you all know it.
As a devout lifelong Catholic I can tell you that very few who think for themselves have any regard for the current occupant of the Papacy. Most think he’s a phony at best and the devil incarnate at worst. Another affirmative action hire gone wrong.
As a Christian, the thing that puzzles me about many Atheist I've encountered is how they like to argue about atheism v Christianity. I can't figure out why they care.
The pastor of the Christian church I attend said, "Christians, and the Christian church, have a bad reputation. Unfortunately we have earned it." I certainly agree that too many of us Christians are judgmental and hypocritical. Even though we have been granted the undeserved gift of salvation, we are still sinners. My role is to demonstrate the love that Christ exhibited. And that means to everyone.
Celia, woke is a heathen religion puked out from political correctness which was defecated out by dialectic secular humanism which is the belief CYSTem of communism.
It's good to be judgmental if your judgment is right. For example, people should not protect the secrets of violent sex offenders. That's a very obviously correct judgment.
As a general rule, if you don't like being a hypocrite, don't be. You can control that, but you can't control the hypocrisy of other people.
Yes, over the years I've had a number of conversations with people who claim to be atheist, just as with people who claim to be Christian. The biggest difference is Christians have a central source for information, The Bible. That makes it easier to assess an individual's perspective related to the subject.
As far as I know Atheism has no central point of reference comparable to The Bible. That enables each individual to create their own version of the subject. At least that's the way I see it.
I didn't take notes but it was stuff like the Bible is contradictory or they couldn't believe a "good" God would let the evil they see in the world, exist. Stuff like that.
It used to be the case long ago that people had to pretend to be Christians to have a career in University.
I don't have much respect for the concept of having an important career in an institution with the ultimate purpose of having all the people praising you and in awe at the power of your intellect. Maybe the Christians were doing the Atheists a favor by making it difficult to have an important academic career.
It's also silly to be angry and seek revenge for these kinds of institutional stupidities that happened in the past to other people. The indignant atheists should focus on attacking institutional stupidities of the present day!
“I believe we are living here now at this crossroads for a reason. I believe we are meant to be here; that we are being given a chance to be the right people in the right place at the right time. I believe that we can end this evil, but only if we dare to try. It begins with one simple step: Telling the world “We Will Not Comply!”
“A person communicates something via electronic messaging, it is received some time in the future. This works against “hearing.” We were asked to “hear” with our eyes. “
"For this reason, I identify atheism as one of their main weapons to advance their agenda." NO apology required! You are doing people a service when you identify evil = ignorance = stupidity. Part of the "revolution" mindset is to make one feel guilt for not being all inclusive. Atheism, communism, marxism = true ignorance and stupidity - the burden of bad ideas and a mindet that eventually looks at people like animals and results in mass murdering innocent souls. Focus on the truth, never apologize to Godless individuals who feel that there is something positive in atheism - it's pure evil. Thanks for all you are doing for humanity Celia Farber. Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. Peace. :-)
Well-stated, Celia. You recognize the existence of the tragically thin-skinned out there. But as keg says, “stickhandling” around them is a form of self-censorship that we must all guard against...
Yes, hopefully catholics who can actually read have figured out the chasm that exists between the luciferian satanist top guy and the many Real faithful. But so many you can’t see because their heads are, like the ostrich, deep in the bliss of sand.
Stick handling defined is a technique utilized when one notes that someone is hopelessly lost and though they have the capacity to see, refuse to open their eyes. And for a surety, this embodies the majority of the deceived mindless grazing herd sucking the left rear teat of the politically correct beast. At times the beast will vomit and its worshippers will run for spoons to enable them to scoop and eat the slime covered chunks. When I stick handle around such hopelessly confused sheeple, I lean down and hold my breath to avoid the stench of their leftist hypocrisy breath that if sniffed, will gag the proverbial maggot.
I went through hell from 2020 thru 2022. I returned to my faith in January 2022...after 37 years! You are 100% correct Celia. Human beings NEED something outside of themselves...higher power, higher consciousness, The Universal Consciousness, God, Jesus, Allah, eastern religions...in order to transcend spiritually. We are not just body and mind.
You clarified yourself very well with indisputable facts and evidence. Remembering one quote:
Proverbs 9:10 says, “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.”
All the examples you gave clearly demonstrated a total lack of wisdom and insight.
As for myself, I have personally had experiences and know people who have had experiences that clearly show there is more than meets the eye. Example. A stranger shows up in the middle of some kind of crisis:
Before I knew her, my wife was on a horse safari in Kenya in the middle of nowhere. One of the horses started to bloat and fell over. The guides and workers were trying to figure out what to do. Off in the distance, a man on foot was approaching. He got there and assessed the situation. He pulled out a pocket knife and punctured the horse's side and gas came out of it's belly. The horse immediately got up and was fine. They asked him what he was doing walking out in the middle of nowhere and he said he was a missionary heading towards another village. Everyone said, "oh", thanked him and off he went. When he was gone, the main guide said there are no villages around here! No one could exactly remember his features.
you have nothing to apologize for, Celia.
100%. No apology required. Peace. :-)
I was thinking the same thing
Despite the title, I read this more as A Clarification. And I agree with others above, no apology is called for.
And now, I’d like to suggest an extension of current trends. We must declare not only out pronouns, but also our spirituality. Some examples:
He/him
Catholic
He/him
Jewish
He/him
Nondenominational
He/him
Agnostic
He/him
Ascended 5D Master
He/him
Atheist (Humanitarian)
They
Atheist (Blackhearted)
lol
ascended 5D master
that's funny
Except that the globalists are not atheists, but Luciferian (atheists are not accepted in Freemasonry because of that, they are required to believe at least in the supernatural, otherwise they wouldn't worship Lucifer).
If they'd read the following link, atheists would be apologizing to you:

Really! who would have thought that atheists we such Sensitive Sally's. Sheese... They should try being practicing Catholic's under the Bergogolio Shade.
Sensitive Sally’s - I love it😂 . They don’t realize their God is There is No God and they must protect their non belief belief😂
It's harder for them to deny miracles that are so apparent to me. The defense of God and Jesus is, to me, an effortless exercise.
There is an axiom, a simple duality, and Bob Dylan has expressed it well:
You’re going to have to serve somebody
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you’re going to have to serve somebody
/Gotta Serve Somebody/
Keep speaking your mind Celia, don't fall into the "apology tour" trap.
Exactly, the dreaded political correctness continuum that gave us Wonky Woke Wally World where no actual opinions are allowed - in case they offend someone.
Well put, Trish. It is indeed a trap. Peace. :-)
Regarding atheists, there are several senses of the word. Most object to the concepts of "god" that have been pounded into us (by corporate religion) all of our lives.

What a beautifully put sentiment.
Dale you many not believe in God but it seems to me that your moral compass is
derived from those who did ( and do).
i'm a big believer in the supernal
you can label yourself what you will but to me its clear you have mislabeled yourself
maybe work on reading comprehension
you aren't worth my time respond to you ever again
The simple fact of radio waves should cause anyone to question "observable reality."
The essential is invisible to the eye.
The essential is al also invisible to that all-seeing eye that so many people are spooked of all the time.
No shi....

I drive deserted backroads, using the time to introspect on my miserable carcass topped with an idea filled head overwhelmed with the insanity of it all. I stop to fuel up at a reservation where gasoline is over fifty cents a gallon cheaper which saves me a minimum of fifteen bucks. I then stop at a TH for refreshments by way of a drive through and then park to further introspect on myself critically for over an hour. Time interval? I leave at five in the morn, hit the reserve at six, hit TH at seven, and drive the rest of the way to church to arrive there an hour early for more introspection in that empty building.
I was raised by a Salvation Army mother, who married a Methodist, and taught to read by use of the Holy Bible. I credit that in a big way as attributable to my reading comprehension and writing abilities. I hate religions as most are man made but the worst religion that ever came from mental rejects was and is dialectic secular humanism aka political correctness aka woke wankerism. Yes it is a state religion. And practitioners have the average IQ of a candy cane and the appeal of a used snot rag.
The church I attend is a non denominational "Bible church" whose minister I sat under in men's Bible study for three months looking to find unscriptural errors as all man made religions are filled with. I found none....nadda. One night he told the class in summing up the state of affairs by saying, "Broken people in a broken world." THAT WAS IT! I knew I had found the right church to attend because that is the Truth. Some reading this have experienced it!
But I digress. I hate this site because nobody gives me a chance to speak/write. hahahahaha Just being an ass again.
The wind initially woke me but has subsided. I am going back to slumber land to have more nightmares of those four women abducting me only to keep me in a secret room to be a hug slave, Oh the horrors!!!
And finally, what an ass I am!!! hahahaha And you all know it.
Monu mental midgetry. Perfect!
Like whitewashed tombs.
It happens all the time, in all generations.
It's the Spirit, not the law.
But it is far worse than I ever can remember.
As a devout lifelong Catholic I can tell you that very few who think for themselves have any regard for the current occupant of the Papacy. Most think he’s a phony at best and the devil incarnate at worst. Another affirmative action hire gone wrong.
As a Christian, the thing that puzzles me about many Atheist I've encountered is how they like to argue about atheism v Christianity. I can't figure out why they care.
Indeed, CC. What could possibly be so threatening about a theist? The admission of their irritation is a topic I’m sure could fill volumes!
Bc they see Christians as hypocrites and are repulsed by fear-based proselytization. I have known many.
The pastor of the Christian church I attend said, "Christians, and the Christian church, have a bad reputation. Unfortunately we have earned it." I certainly agree that too many of us Christians are judgmental and hypocritical. Even though we have been granted the undeserved gift of salvation, we are still sinners. My role is to demonstrate the love that Christ exhibited. And that means to everyone.
Is woke a religion? if so, it surely takes the gold when it comes to judgement?
I think the Churches never should have gotten into money, but worse still, Covid. Satan is smart. I mean for a loser.
Celia, woke is a heathen religion puked out from political correctness which was defecated out by dialectic secular humanism which is the belief CYSTem of communism.
It's good to be judgmental if your judgment is right. For example, people should not protect the secrets of violent sex offenders. That's a very obviously correct judgment.
As a general rule, if you don't like being a hypocrite, don't be. You can control that, but you can't control the hypocrisy of other people.
That would mean they consider all who claim to be Christian as being identical. Maybe that explains their belief in nothing.
Agree. Like all who consider all self-proclaimed "socialists" and atheists identical, and "Satanists" to boot.
Have you ever had this discussion with an atheist in real life or is it just an exposure to arguments in other places online?
As opposed to in unreal life? 🤠
Yes, over the years I've had a number of conversations with people who claim to be atheist, just as with people who claim to be Christian. The biggest difference is Christians have a central source for information, The Bible. That makes it easier to assess an individual's perspective related to the subject.
As far as I know Atheism has no central point of reference comparable to The Bible. That enables each individual to create their own version of the subject. At least that's the way I see it.
What did they say was their reasoning to you for not believing in God?
I didn't take notes but it was stuff like the Bible is contradictory or they couldn't believe a "good" God would let the evil they see in the world, exist. Stuff like that.
It used to be the case long ago that people had to pretend to be Christians to have a career in University.
I don't have much respect for the concept of having an important career in an institution with the ultimate purpose of having all the people praising you and in awe at the power of your intellect. Maybe the Christians were doing the Atheists a favor by making it difficult to have an important academic career.
It's also silly to be angry and seek revenge for these kinds of institutional stupidities that happened in the past to other people. The indignant atheists should focus on attacking institutional stupidities of the present day!
I wish I had a little more time Cosmos right now. I disagree with all due respect.
That is a frustrating aspect of these sites, isn't it? 🤠
I don’t believe you need to apologize.
We get to have opinions.
We get to have conversations.
We get to disagree.
We get to dig deeper within, if we choose to see why something someone stated irked us.
Your motives were clean.
So it’s the irked that need soul searching, not you.
We must stop apologizing to the overly offended group, otherwise it’s Co Signing their lack of self reflection.
Sometimes it is on the WOKE to deal. Just deal.
Grow inner fortitude, instead of demanding we prop ya up.
As far as the globalist.
Oh they worship darkness, evil, corruption, Satan, maybe not realizing it, or maybe full on.
I don’t know.
I just know, for sure , they worship everything evil. Believing they will never be held accountable.

“I believe we are living here now at this crossroads for a reason. I believe we are meant to be here; that we are being given a chance to be the right people in the right place at the right time. I believe that we can end this evil, but only if we dare to try. It begins with one simple step: Telling the world “We Will Not Comply!”
—Brandon Smith
“A person communicates something via electronic messaging, it is received some time in the future. This works against “hearing.” We were asked to “hear” with our eyes. “
This. Brilliant!
♥️
Yes, that's a great observation.
Thank you for modeling healthy communication. No reason why we can't disagree, listen to each, add nuance and expand the conversation more. Nice.
"For this reason, I identify atheism as one of their main weapons to advance their agenda." NO apology required! You are doing people a service when you identify evil = ignorance = stupidity. Part of the "revolution" mindset is to make one feel guilt for not being all inclusive. Atheism, communism, marxism = true ignorance and stupidity - the burden of bad ideas and a mindet that eventually looks at people like animals and results in mass murdering innocent souls. Focus on the truth, never apologize to Godless individuals who feel that there is something positive in atheism - it's pure evil. Thanks for all you are doing for humanity Celia Farber. Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. Peace. :-)
Well-stated, Celia. You recognize the existence of the tragically thin-skinned out there. But as keg says, “stickhandling” around them is a form of self-censorship that we must all guard against...
Yes, hopefully catholics who can actually read have figured out the chasm that exists between the luciferian satanist top guy and the many Real faithful. But so many you can’t see because their heads are, like the ostrich, deep in the bliss of sand.
🙏🏽
Stick handling defined is a technique utilized when one notes that someone is hopelessly lost and though they have the capacity to see, refuse to open their eyes. And for a surety, this embodies the majority of the deceived mindless grazing herd sucking the left rear teat of the politically correct beast. At times the beast will vomit and its worshippers will run for spoons to enable them to scoop and eat the slime covered chunks. When I stick handle around such hopelessly confused sheeple, I lean down and hold my breath to avoid the stench of their leftist hypocrisy breath that if sniffed, will gag the proverbial maggot.
I went through hell from 2020 thru 2022. I returned to my faith in January 2022...after 37 years! You are 100% correct Celia. Human beings NEED something outside of themselves...higher power, higher consciousness, The Universal Consciousness, God, Jesus, Allah, eastern religions...in order to transcend spiritually. We are not just body and mind.
John, I am truly happy for you. Feel free to tell us more!
Try to avoid Allah, of the religion of pieces. You are safe with God and His Son Jesus, and the Paraclete better known as the Holy Spirit.
You clarified yourself very well with indisputable facts and evidence. Remembering one quote:
Proverbs 9:10 says, “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.”
All the examples you gave clearly demonstrated a total lack of wisdom and insight.
As for myself, I have personally had experiences and know people who have had experiences that clearly show there is more than meets the eye. Example. A stranger shows up in the middle of some kind of crisis:
Before I knew her, my wife was on a horse safari in Kenya in the middle of nowhere. One of the horses started to bloat and fell over. The guides and workers were trying to figure out what to do. Off in the distance, a man on foot was approaching. He got there and assessed the situation. He pulled out a pocket knife and punctured the horse's side and gas came out of it's belly. The horse immediately got up and was fine. They asked him what he was doing walking out in the middle of nowhere and he said he was a missionary heading towards another village. Everyone said, "oh", thanked him and off he went. When he was gone, the main guide said there are no villages around here! No one could exactly remember his features.
I would like some atheist to explain that to us.
This is your blog.
You can say what you like.
If people don't like it, they can jog on.
Jog on! haha
