Actually, from the passages I've read, it seems it might be the closest thing we have to what the Bible is really all about. Sure, it's something of a departure from the stale, archaic language we’re used to (which I personal believe was in some ways created with the intent to be so) and gets...

If you had just one word to decribe/define God. What would you use. For me the answer is quite simple and striaght forward. But, I'd like to see what others have to say.

Good as New Review

Actually, I just had the most awakening experience. I feel so - enlightened. Like it was all there all along but just overlooked, just hidden behind some sort of self-constructed barrier but no more.

Actually, this very evening, I think, correction I know, I experienced some sort of wonderful revelation. It was like euphoria and totally amazing.

I just found out about at in it really seems like a major revelation.

I understand. Thanks.

Thanks. So many fo you guys have been great and are so intelligent. Maybe I'm not so bad. But of course, with everything, there's always room for improvement. Like the athlete who is a perennial all-star. But with more work could even be the league MVP.

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - United States

I tried once a few years back. I was able give up both porn and masturbation for around a year but it didn't last.

I know exaclty what you mean about the buzz-words thing. That's one of the things that tunrs me off about organized religion. I consult everyone about my issues, lol. That's why I'm here. I have a mental health professional (the one who has been proscribing prozac for me for years) that I see...

Good points. It's just very much my nature to worry. Perhaps it's my OCD to some degree. And, I probably do too much research on things for my own good.

I thought of that. It's pretty disturbing.

Doing so is indeed one of my major life goals.

No interest in dudes and it's very hard to find somebody these days, especially for somebody like me - average. And I'm not into having a ready made family (girls with kids) or somebody with something I'm gonna need medical treatment for. Been there, done that, not fun.

I thought so too until recently. As far as the other stuff goes, my first time years ago was one I paid for. It was horrid and I was terribly sorry for it, confessed and took a long time to get my head straight. It involved an infection which wasn't fun either. I've basically paid for...

Ah, the big question. Well, mainly sex related stuff. Porn, masturbation and a few things a bit worse.

It's also like a parent - and no I'm not a father but work with kids. But if the child disobeys, we would expect the parent to discipline (punish) that child. This however in no means tells us that the parent does not love the child.

Thanks to you, and citizen for giving me some stuff to mull over. But before I do, I guess on arguement is that of a judge, as that God is also attributed to this role. While a judge will not condemn unjustly, he or she will rule that a punishment fits the crime. And, some would argue, not to...

As an athiest, aren't you ever worried - what if I'm wrong?
