Who says that I have an uncaring heart? I feel exactly the same as anyone else when something bad happens to someone. I am neither smug, callous or immoral. Your crying over something that cannot be changed is wasted emotion as far as I am concerned. I feel sad that it happened, but the people (Souls) that you are crying over, are still alive in another dimension and it is possible that they are already reincarnated, so there is no need for tears. They are as aware of life as you are. Soul does not die.!!! Well, all I can say is that no heart that DID care could possibly be so cavalier and dismissive of grief. I understand nature very well. I know that it takes time to get over the loss of someone that you love. I do know however that there comes a point in time when it becomes a sickness and can destroy a person. If you have any logic whatsoever, that should tell you that you have to make an effort to help yourself recover and go on with life. I think everyone that has children has a duty to make their home life as happy as they can for the sake of all family members.!!!

visual or audio hallucinations are not necessarily signs of mental disability in that most of the time there is no danger to the person or others and they can lead a perfectly normal life I guess it wouldn't enter your head that visual or audio hallucinations could be God's way of communicating with His/Her/It's created creature? no it wouldn't enter my head that a powerful God capable of making an entire world/universe/infinity and beyond would need to go to such extreemes and frankly very dubious ways to communicate... i would expect an all powerful God to be far more mature and far more definite in his dealings ...

By Golly.!!! I can't believe that a puny human being thinks that they know more than God. It seems that arranging the brain to hear God's voice would be quite the natural thing to do. After all it is in the Bible that the Kingdom of God is to be found within, and most people know that you have to focus on the spiritual eye (third eye) in order to find it, I think the third eye has something to do with the pineal gland and that is in the brain too.

Your post is quite strange, you say that God is all powerful then with the next breath you say that He chooses dubious ways to communicate and that you expected Him to be more mature and far more definite in His dealings which isn't the least bit complimentary and certainly doesn't fit your description of Him being 'all powerful'.

Scottish Lassie, your vision of God is of a deceiver.
That's not God you're praising; that's Satan.

Perhaps YOU should learn to rise above your smugness, your condescension, your indifference to the suffering of others and your arrogance. All those things are bad traits in ANY person - religious or non-religious. Sorry to disappoint you, but your assumption as to my character is quite wrong. As God is aware of every individual's thoughts, I am a genuine spiritual person and therefore HUMBLE. God knows that. You consistently display all the signs of smugness, condescension, arrogance and indifference to the suffering of others. Genuinely spiritual people don't go round telling everyone else how spiritual they are. That's the mark of deceivers. I'm quite willing to accept that your cult has brainwashed you but please try and show some humility and some degree of open-mindedness.

I'm quite willing to accept that your cult has brainwashed you but please try and show some humility and some degree of open-mindedness. Being an Atheist I of course, do not believe in a God, or Satan for that matter. Even so I have studied a number of religions and this conversation is, in my opinion, a good representation, of believers in general. The idea of a God being all powerful, (they all weren’t all powerful) and having these special conversations with the individual seems to represent the believer aggrandizing themselves through having such dialog with a God. And, because of these special conversations, all others must believe that they are true. Stating that they know who the God is and why the God does somethings and not others, places that individual as a priest-like representative for all people. If such people wants to believe such a story, so what, it is their story even though there is no evidence to back it up. However, they seem to get upset, when other individuals don’t believe them. It is then that their story begins to fall apart. Consider, the individual has special knowledge of why a God acts a certain way. And not just a God but an all powerful God. Out of all of the planets in the galaxy it is this one that the all powerful God picket and in the billions of people that have lived here has selected one to be a conduit. And left them with no capability to prove the existence of that God and without any proof to convince others to also belief. And we are suppose to believe such a story.

I only mention the fact that I am indeed humble and God knows this. Just because I make certain statements that I know are true from my experiences, you have decided via your worldly thinking to label me smug, arrogant even immoral. I'm just trying to set you straight. When the chips are down what you think of me has no real bearing on my life, my relationship with God is far more important. I know I am loved.

If God is 'all powerful'then He/She/It knows what is best, so why are you casting aspersions as to Ability?

Scottish Lassie, your vision of God is of a deceiver. That's not God you're praising; that's Satan. With your worldly thinking, you ofcourse, would know best. I think it is you who are deceiving yourself. You are so very critical all the time.

Nobody is asking you to belieive anything and by the way it is the Holy Spirit who knows what is in a person's mind and arranges for the Master to appear to provide the appropriate instruction that is relevant to the particular person. Besides that, apparently I am now being accused of having feelings of grandeur, when will it stop?

Besides that, apparently I am now being accused of having feelings of grandeur, when will it stop? As you saying that you are only expressing your opinion, that is also true of others. Others can speak for themselves, but I am very much at ease with what I say, and I do not require anyone to accept what I post. You apparently do need such validation and it is no wonder because you have yet to offer any temporal world evidence for your assertions. If you want to believe such 'stuff' go at it. However, do not expect others who are suppose to accept what you claim is true when your claims cannot be proven in the temporal world or at the very least have support from people who have recognized expertise. One other thing, your continued putting forth that you have had these experiences and therefore you must be believed. You apparently do not realize it but others have walked very similar paths and come out the other side rejecting all of it, with your logic, they too should be believed. From Plato to the present day, the mystical path has been tried and tried and yet it is rejected by increasing numbers of people.
