ow do you feel about the wealthy in this country? in the world? most of these wealthy have caused harm and suffering to others. Knowingly. They are the very people who say they believe in religion also. the corrupt politicians who have ideologies which differ from their own sayings, the wealthy business tycoons who destroy the lives and the economy, the wealthy and overpaid athlete who are womanizers and are drug abusers. surely the people in power are probably feeling successful and deep down, are most likely happy wouldn't you say? that can have whatever they want whenever they want. in a position of power, a human is naturally a happy person. in my experience everything people do in today's society is largely selfish and people will step on others to get ahead. just like in business endeavors and in love.
I m born in france. My father is german. I ve been to most european countries , i ve been in the caribean -martinique, dominique, guadeloupe-. I moved to north america, in canada.
All the people i ve seen. All the people from the whole world i see who emigrated here in canada.
You know what?
They re all the same. They all run after the same things, we re all the fucking same. Physically, psychologically. We re all from the same fucking original root. We all want the same exact things. We re all hurt by the same things, and warmed by the same things. With globalization, television, internet, satellites, free access to knowledges in most libraries in the occidental world, we re smarter than ever, or, could be smarter than ever. Most use these tools to dumb themselves down, to numb themselves from their psychological, physical suffering.
What separates us are; our upbringings, our parents, our family, the love we received, our education, our religions -atheism being a religion to me-.
I have seen peruvian third worlders who came to quebec, buy a portrait of the christ, wearing north american /occidental clothes, women had thin long hairs, skinny jeans, men were dressed as black african rappers. This example alone should tell you enough about the kind of world we now live in.
I do not think, tho, that these rich people you re talking about, who can have it all in a lifetime, are "happy". I also do not believe in the obsessive pursuit of hapiness which is typically a product of our modern atheist society. "i MUST BE HAPPY AT ALL COST". Problem; it's simply not the way it works. Psychology, psychanalysis, ancient philosophers, drugs, consumerism, compulsive buying (bodybuilding!) none of this guarantees you eternal and immediate bliss. Money doesnt, strenght doesnt, beauty doesnt.
You are happy when you re doing something good for both yourself and others. When it's not at the expense of others, of in some case if it's at the expense of others who threaten God's words , life itself.
When you say that a human in position of power is happy, you believe that hapiness= domination. Basically you re reducing us to animal status, you do not think we are "something else, something different"than animals. I didnt say better, more "evolved". We dont even know why we re different than them .
If hapiness is domination, why some people who dominate people at work but have a miserable life outside, in their broken family, are unhappy?
What is hapiness?
Why should we always be happy? What about ... this state of constant hapiness might be AFTER our life on earth, in..heaven? Most believers think this state of eternal bliss is a gift adter living a good life following God, our creator, will. Basically they think life is a giant, constant, test. And that ultimately when you die, you get what you deserve. Those who dont believe in this basic principle, think that they can do everything while alive, and as result care more about themselves than others in general, focus only on their needs and often at the expense of others. Atheists.
Muslims who copied and slightly modified the Bible which is from divine origin -Someone, something, that came from "somewhere", created us, (why? if you create something, it's because you...NEED it..) and later came back to earth, chose the best of the humans to give them responsabilities to insure the perpetuation of human life- are wrong, so are buddhist who think we should all be lazy, "meditating" innofensive living beings, who condemn violence in all its shapes and as result...got destroyed and replaced by chinese. Buddhism only barely survives as a trendy philosophy of life for lost male and female hippies in their 50s poping xanax daily living in the west. Is God's realm on Earth "Heaven" ? Are we slowly building Heaven on earth? Will heaven on earth happen after the final battle betweem good and evil? Havr we seen the future already? One thing is sure, we re stuck forever in this interpretation the meaning of our existences, wether we like it or not. As if we were programmed to do so, and nothing else.
The Bible says God is love, God is life, He s called the Living God - for a reason.
Fact is you cant always be happy on earth. To me, hapiness is found by following God's words. I apply what i understand progressively from his writings he revealed to some humans in the past, and it makes me genuinely, truly happy. It gives a meaning to what happens to me and others. It explains to me how to categorize people, how to filter everything i hear, read, see. It is reassuring. Atheists all end in despair, and alone.
When you follow God's words, whatever happens, it makes sense. Our brain has been designed to do so. When your brain, your thoughts, come to the conclusion that everything that happens, might be absurd, nonsensical, you slowly slide into cynicism, sarcasm, despair -yet you keep looking for someone to love you and to love at the same time...- causes and consequences are hard to distinguish from each others, and you lose all your marks. When you love someone, who hurts you, you think...what s the point of all of this? . This is where lead decades of being an atheist. Fuck them all, Me first, you only live once, and other bullshit one liners.
Degenerated, uneducated , jealous, third worlders or first world nihilistic perverts are both as dangerous for mankind as each others. This is my thought. As usual truth, balance, lies in the middle, the right path between the extremes, God's path.
God tells us to follow very precise principles, so we can live a happy life. You cant be unhappy following them. It's as simple as that. But only an infinetesimal -sp?- fraction of humans are able to understand this. It requires so many prerequesites. Genes, education, upbringings...
He tells us what to do, he left us with a guide, yet, most humans dont follow it, ignore it, or follow imitations, or think they re smart enough to create their own.
Our only freedom as humans, is to follow God's words, or ignore them.
The people you re describing in your example, are people most humans want to imitate.
Again had you read the Bible, you would have been able to connect the dots and understand that all of this has already been told, we ve already been warned. There is something way bigger than us as individuals.
All of this is absolutely normal, follows its written, predictable path.
I do not find any confort in acting bad, i do find confort in knowing that what i do - that speaks more than what i say- pleases God. I am submitted to him. Just like a woman can only be happy if she makes her man happy, a man can only be happy if he does what God wants him to do.
Still, he has the choice to do it, or not.
Let's also not forget that a child is only happy if he makes his parents happy.
Now, if kids and a woman follow a man who is a non believer, who isnt submitted to God, who doesnt fear Him, they ll be lured into despair. A woman should never ever want to please a man who doesnt follow God. And children should never want to please a Father who himself doesnt want to please God.
This is the order of things. As soon as this order of things is disrupt, everything in human society collapses.
you feel that the masses are stopping reproduction to focus on various destructive addictions (consumerism, capitalism, socialism, communism, materialism, hedonism, feminism and so on that replaced christianity in occident), but how do you feel about the way that the population is spiraling out of control? how is it that some of the most well to do people in this world who would make great parents do not end up having children? what about the millions of misguided teenage knocked up bimbo without any morals and religious beliefs? why is it that it seems like some of the worst fit to be parents end up having children, and lots of them? the poor, lower class uneducated individuals without a higher knowledge of the way the world works? you're right though i didn't read the bible as indepth as i should have
I feel that people who sin, at some point stop reproducing, or encourage their own offspring for those who have one, to stop reproducing. Basically atheists are so lost, so unhappy -while constantly consuming an enormous amount of energy to pretend they are- that they dont want to live anymore at some point, and teach that -logically- to their offsprings, who too, if they dont find God one way or another thru their own existence, will discourage their offspring to reproduce if they have one. Whatever the way you look at it those who entirely stop to believe in God, who arent capable of being spiritual anymore, who are only "intelligent, strong, beautiful,fast ...and so on" at some point lose the will to live and disapear.
The population of earth that spiralling out of control are uneducated, faithless -or wrongly believing in false gods-. These people -black africans- are like crickets. They will grow and grow and turn everything they touch into shit/sand. They can be evangelized. This is what some of our ancestors attempted to do. A black man, woman, can read the Bible and go away from all the negative influences coming from his , her race. Those who do really want to "evolve", and same could be said of arab or asian women who date occidentals-, cut most of their ties with their race.
Muslims wants everyone to die but themselves. They convert others by force. Even if i dont agree with the way women took control over men in western atheists societies on the verge of collapse, i also dont agree with the fact they should be reduced to cattle like muslims do.
We never talk about muslims leaving their shitholes and slowly converting to atheism living in the west, just like we never talk about muslims who abandon the false god to convert to ... christianism.
I have no problem sympathizing with anyone from any place in the world, as long as he, she, is...christian. Because it means automatically that he, she, envision the past, present, and future the same way i do. Of course there are fake christians. But there are also true ones. As a result the selection will be massive.
All the people who give life to a human being for the wrong reasons, will get what they deserve. Just like all the people who give life to a human being for the good reasons -God's reasons- will get what they deserve. This is how it works. Call it natural selection, God's will, it's the exact same thing.
Only God speaks the one and only truth, and only He inspires his creatures to do and say what is good, only He choses those who will defend life, his creation.
Of course there is no global Will managing all the events happening on earth. All humans just do there things in their corner. This is what is truly happening. No conspiracy theories needed. Perverted, lawless, corrupted assholes from all origins and skin colors, from both sexes, from all ages, from all social classes, sin daily. Most humans are doing bad, bad things, lacking guidance to make good use of their souls, bodies, and existences.
Quality vs quantity. We are producing massive quantities of humans of poor quality.
And we re already starting to see, that it's the survival of our specie that is at risk. There are billions of individuals wills not following any guidance but their primal instincts or the wrong guidances. All of those wills combined together form your daily life, interactions with others human beings.
Considering anything that exists is the sum of what precedes and generated it, every single human being on earth, is the sum of what his parents and all the human beings he identified with think, thought. Your own thought is a mix of all the thoughts you ve been in contact with. What filtered all these influences, attempted to structurate them is your consciousness. Your soul. A badly raised soul, a poorly educated soul, a tortured soul, an abandonned soul, will often end lost and destructive.
You cant do much about it as an individual. You cant change the world alone. Only a bunch of people thinking the same way, sharing the same principles, values, can. All that matters is what are these values, these principles.
We re all ants fighting each others until one race of ants reign on the whole planet. Some ants of different species will breed together here and there once in a while -leading most fo the time to offsprings being abandonned when parents split- but it s always, largely a small phenomenon. Most people of the same kind stick together.
As an ant, because yeah, we re animals with a soul and a consciousness which allows us to be conscious that we are animals -but also that they can rise above this condition- you cant do much alone, you can only do something with the ants of your race.
Personnaly I strongly believe all christians will reunite in north america and will have to fight a sino muslim coalition that will take control of whole eurasia, africa, australia.
Simply because you, I, will die, and those who will live in the next cenruties, milleniums, will fall for the same traps, and will repeat the sins of their fathers and grandfathers. Others will fight to live not falling for these traps, will do their best not to sin, will keep hope, faith, for Heaven, for the realm of God. Humans needs goals, to give a meaning to their life, without goals, their life makes no sense.
Life has to continue. It must continue. Strenght to defend life has to be used. It has not to be confused with violence which is the use of strenght for evil deeds.
How do you prevent people who are lost, who are hateful, jealous, frustrated, from spawning offsprings who will be unhappier than them, and who will ruin the lives of your own offsprings?
How do you educate all those who dont want to be educated?
It is very hard. This is why recessions, depressions, and wars exist. Those who will find the Light, those who will find the truth, whatever their skin color, their social status, the amount of money on their bank account, will understand the truth and will rally with those of their kind. The truth is God's path. Everything else will disapear.
Fact is there are good, spiritual, human beings being spawned from every single social class, from any country in the world, constantly. Some will get corrupt, some wont. As the world population will increase, the chances are very high that at some point life on earth will become hell on earth, as most of these people wont be "quality" people.
Now, as a human being, in your lifetime, all you can do, daily, is to do your best to follow God's words. That's about it. It's both reassuring and humbling. It is far from the bullshits we hear and see everyday, but that's the truth, like it or not. Question yourself why you do not like this simple truth. Most of the time that's because you come from a dysfunctionnal family, where you ve experience extremistic behaviors you re prone to subconsciously reproduce, most of the time that's because you lack discipline, and the reassuring presence of a genuinely christian father that would have taught you the boundaries of your body and mind, who would have taught you how to receive as much as you contribute without hurting anyone. There are so many things linked to the presence of a father figure in the development of a boy or a girl. It is pure destructive madness to have destroyed this following the slow process of destruction of christianism in the West. Of course a bad father isnt any better than completely lacking a father figure, again we have the proof that between the two extremes, there s a balance; a father who s here, and who believes in God, is submitted to Him, "fears" Him.
I do not think catholicism is the way God's words should be interpreted. Catholics and the importance of "hierarchy" , ie putting men between other men and God, somewhat tainted God's words in my opinion. I can understand some people misunderstood, or were misled by the catholic interpretation of God's words. I think protestants and their belief that as a human you directly discuss with God without any need for an "intermediate" are closer of the truth.
They are the ones who left europe and its contradictions, to build north america. They are the ones who, once europe has become muslim once and for all, will look at the "old europe" disapearing and will take notes from the other side of the ocean.
If God is omnipotent and unique, if he is perfect, he is One. We can deduct he might the result of an infinitely long process of selection until ultimate perfection is reached.
Whatever the way you call it, we re aware as human in 2012, well for the most educated of us, that a constant process of selection is at work.
We dont know why, how it works -even if science is in fact an attempt to understand why and how- but one thing it's sure, it's constantly happening. Things stay, things disapear. Things strenghten, things weaken. Things evolve, things devolve. Things always change, but it somewhat never changes.
At the end of the day, as a human being you re here, you think you try to understand Why, but all you can do is to tell "how". And to be honnest, only a very small fraction of mankind has this ability. Most have no idea how things work. Most dont follow anything or anyone.
At the end of the day, if you want to know WHY, all that remains are religions, and a religion that says it's the only real one.
You can also believe that there is no "why", but believing so, you in fact believe in... nihilism, and this belief leads you to "mental illnesses", the increasing inability over time to love or be loved, to contribute, to...live the way you ve been designed to live.
So, dont forget this. You re not God. No unlimited powers for you. You can only find hapiness doing some things that God told you to do. Everything else as He told us, leads to despair and death. Everything that is not following God's words which are Life itself, is deception, and ultimately destruction.
Madness is blind destruction. Madness is the use of strenght to cause evil. Madness is increased by ignorance. This is not madness to fight evil using strenght. But to use strenght for justice, for truth, for God, you have to be pure, you have to have cleaned yourself first, following God's words. Only once reached that point, can you defend life using force if needed, without any doubt or remorse. The only good use of force is to use it in order to create or defend life. To understand what is life, it's meaning, you have to read the Bible. This is how you make contact with God, how he grows inside your soul. Take a look at evangelization. When you re walking with God by your side, you inspire others to join you, but you should only do so in order to make them join God. Remember, you re not God himself. God is beyond your existence. He was, He is, and will always be.
