Example of censorship, or a attack against freedom of speech and/or expression? O.k, we see it on radio, t.v. ... church groups come against adult toy stores, etc. Then on to anger issues over terms like shit, ass, fuck and what not. Then on to, attempts to stifle other views on certain...

I've always stated that they meet us where we are no matter. I think an ever increasing open pov and willingness to learn and keep learning instead of leaning on our own, current understanding is helpful. One thing I like to do is start on a solid foundation, then build from there, and of...

Again, this is more of a Christian themed question and statement. It concerns the Word (Logos) in relation to the freedom of Speech here in the U.S. Some would like to censor free speech and to be honest, it's typically the more religious among us. If you look up the term Word (Logos) the...

I would assume it's the same as ... 24 hour = a day in most most parts of the world, which includes about half night time, so ... I prefer a good balance like that, but that could be because I'm accustomed to it. Like good and evil hot cold darkness light. I don't think we'll ever be without...

Say he was buried, and like 1 john 4 states he has come in the flesh ... the lord is that spirit, etc. Think Pentecost. Ok, 2000 plus years and counting, 1000 years per burial day. Ok, this world is entering a new era, and the spirit is on the move in really big ways. What I'm saying, and...

This is more of a Christian question but I think it best to ask it here. The bible states a single day is like a thousand years, right? Jesus was said to die and go the hell for 3 days. If a day is = to a thousand years, could we be taking our first steps in the last days ... awaiting the...

Life can be a miracle Open your mind and see Virtue a path of beauty Existing in you and me Safe is this passage Always open it is Grace Vice is but the darkness Existing in its place Sit a bit and think it over Acknowledge Grace and see Love is God's guiding hand Living spirit and heavens key...

(Please bear with me) The only way to rise up is by first falling down. I mean the only way to grow and develop as living beings is to experience some resistance (good and evil). No pain no gain (so to speak). It is what it is. We live, we grow, develop, and mature through pleasure, suffering...

I think humanity has become too dammed religious for our own good. God's Spirit, the Spirit of our Lord, the Spirit of love lies sleeping in far too many of us. We ought to be doing our best to awaken the giant that far too many neglect and deem insignificant. HE lives in us all, but until we...

A very insightful and knowledgeable individual was he.

The way I look at it is if there will be no death in the kingdom, then we will obviously not eat the flesh of other creatures. Why not live as if we are already there and be good stewards instead of living off the lives of other animals? I understand the whole circle of life thing, but we are...

That's a tuff call and one only you can make. Myself, I wouldn't join the military unless I absolutely felt compelled to do so. I wish you the best whatever your choice, though.

I have no choice but to be responsible for the choices I make. What I'm trying to convey to you is that I'm not above violence when it comes to protecting the one's I love. That's just an honest acknowledgement. As far as asking permission to protect them from harm, it's my obligation to my son...

We are spiritual beings who occupy temporal bodies? I've often thought this myself. I simply can't imagine how life can just end and be no more. I rather believe that the end of our temporal bodies simply leads to another beginning for our spiritual selves.

Multiverse? Interesting. I'd say the world is a multiverse melting pot, then.

You want balance, whereas I desire that all who desire happiness and joy receive it. It could be that our attitudes make all the difference. Even to the point where death has no sting! Tears of sorrow could turn into tears of joy knowing a new beginning awaits the deceased. What of hunger and...

I quite agree with what you've posted. Those who are unable to find liberty in Christ are bound by worldly things. However, when a person does obtain a sense of liberty in Christ, the whole world becomes a sanctuary of sorts. There are two contrasting worlds present on earth. One is the Kingdom...

I think either you misunderstood my implications, or I worded it as such that it seemed as if I said something I didn't mean to. When I suggested that it would be self righteous to not take action, I meant I am not that good of man as to never raise my hand against another. I don't think of my...

Actually, I wouldn't call any kind of violence righteous. Violence is an ugly thing, and that's the point. It's an unrighteous act ... no matter the reason a person turns to it.
