One thing I like is your "thick skin". I'm a bit disappointed that my gentle tactics have succeeded in annoying you. I'll get over it, I guess.

This religion/philosophy you have invented/received is at worst, harmless. IMO. It seems to have positive qualities, which may be useful to some people.

You are in touch with your spiritual side. I think that's a good thing. We all should listen to our inner selves.

You add a colorful and human quality to this board. In all seriousness, more power to you!

See ya later.
Dear Nowhere357.

We are not that brittle.
We would not have you change your approach one bit, as we enjoy a good spar.
Thank you for your kind words.
We know that this board has all different opinions from people all round the world and it is great that we all can share in the dialectic.
We do not get ''upset'', we just bat back, sometimes seriously, sometimes with humor, but never with malice.
We know the rules of engagement and would never be judgemental of the individuals involved. We may disagree with concepts and ideas, but we expect the same back.
The bringing of any new understanding will always run up against the established understanding and we believe when we were picked to do the job, the universe knew what it was doing.

Nowhere357, we are fair minded people and believe in the truth, no matter how hard that may be at times to give to others and ourselves. This is part of living the message that we are here to bring.

Cheers.

Dear Darth Dane.

It is all about ''love'', but love of the highest kind.
The kind of ''love'' a teacher has for their pupils when homework is insisted upon, for the teacher knows it is for the greater good of the pupil. The pupil often cannot see this for their vision is not as far reaching as the teachers.
The kind of love we are talking about is the ''unconditional'' kind.
The kind of love that does not have a price.

Cheers.

It’s ALL ABOUT TRUTH.
It’s ALL ABOUT TRUST.
It’s ALL ABOUT FAITH.
It’s ALL ABOUT BELIEF.


Thats why I asked about Love.

I don't need the truth to choose Love. Which truth is this?
I don't need trust to choose Love. Trust in what?
I don't need faith to choose Love. Faith in what?
I don't need to believe to choose Love. Belief in what?

Oh and what does M.A.M. stand for?

Miss American Mom?

Dear Darth Dane.

To understand that all of those things, Truth, Trust, Faith and Belief are what you must have before you can have love, but not just love, Unconditional Love, of yourself and all others.

You must be totally truthful with yourself and all others.
You must have total trust of yourself.
You must have total faith in yourself.
You must believe intrinsically in yourself and what you are.

You are not comparable to anyone else, as your life is unique, your journey yours alone.
You may share your journey with others, but it is an individual one.

Do all this and you will truly know and experience what LOVE is.
Unconditional Love, the love of the Gift Of Design/G.O.D.

Cheers.

Malai5.
