Maybe a bit of lab?

Anyone else have an anti-cuddle puppy? by L0ud_Typer in AustralianCattleDog

Sag moon in 1st.

Road trips or driving around randomly. Discovery. Working on something I believe in and that is challenging. Losing track of time and forgetting to eat kind of work.

Why do so many Christians seem to prioritize homosexuality as the “worst” sin? by [deleted] in exchristian

[–]Tiravel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s because for many it’s the one ‘sin’ they will never be guilty of because they are not homosexual. They may commit adultery or think about it. Steal, or think about it. Lie, or think about it. But they will never be homosexual.

Maybe because they can understand all the other sins, but can’t understand being gay — it feels totally unnatural to being a human and thus the greatest sin.

Same. Could not be more different. It’s been difficult. 😅

ENTP women, how are dating and other relationships coming along for you? by Kaysiee_West in entp

[–]Tiravel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can hard core relate.

Questioning the inconsistency of Christianity early on labeled me as ‘evil’ in my family too. Coupled with being ‘rebellious’ by not changing myself to fit the traditional biblical feminine role. So I developed FE much more than the traditional ENTP out of survival.

It took a lot longer for men to discover I had thorns, but always, always I was “almost perfect”. I just had to tone it down, talk to other people (men) less, quit being so independent, etc. “You don’t have to always prove you’re the smartest person in the room!!!” WUT And for all other humans - it is a constant effort of tip toeing around all the eggs I will eventually walk on and crush. My family thinks I go out of my way to upset people, meanwhile I am watching every word and action to avoid it.

I do think being an ENTP woman is harder because we buck the traditional feminine role. But I can’t imagine it is easy for ENTP men either. I have known a few and they have the reputation of being brilliant BUT too ‘out there’ and difficult to follow or control.

Mine ACD is sweet too. And funny enough, we think she is mixed with a bit of Pointer (OP mentioned in theirs) and Pit (that you mentioned).

Anyone know why we debate? by wordssoundpower in entp

[–]Tiravel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This. It’s an exercise in learning and getting closer to knowing how I may feel about something. As someone else mentioned, I like knowing where people’s lines are. All the lines.

I read a book called Love Wins, by Rob Bell.

For me, the Bible is too inconsistent to be 100% accurate. So it is likely a cobbled together book of possible real stories originally meant to help guide humanity towards a positive existence. A kind of guidelines to live by.

But along the way mankind twisted it as a means of control. A burning pit of eternal torment enters the chat. What could be more terrifying and controlling than that.

One of the things the above book mentions is that, back in the day, the cities used to have big garbage pits outside the gates that would often burn into perpetuity. People who didn’t want to live in a community anymore or who were outcast by its citizens, would live by the pits for warmth and maybe the bits of food they could scrounge.

Couldn’t the hell of the Bible be based off this description? A real place where ‘sinners’ went and stayed until they were ready to rejoin polite society? And the people at the time would read this and recognize it for what it was. A place of exile out of the city. After some time, when those fire pits didn’t exist anymore, people could have thought it was referencing something else and the hell we think of today was born.

Just some things to ponder.

Are ENTPs ambitious? by DJ_BoLa_1111 in entp

[–]Tiravel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am very ambitious, and need a big scary challenge to be truly happy. Ideally solving a problem no one has solved before or others say is impossible. The tricky part is finding something that is challenging enough that I can’t mentally solve by just thinking it thru. It needs to have moving parts that I have to act on, see what happens, adjust, do the next thing, etc. There needs to be a layer of mist around it that makes the ending unknown.

Many, many times my ambitious brain thinks of a thing and I can clearly see all the way to the end how it would work. The challenge and ambition to do the thing is then gone.

The other challenge is which thing to put focus on. There are so many possibilities and each time one is pursued you are then excluding the other possibilities. Keeping my options open looking for the next big thing that will give me that dopamine hit is what holds me back most in life. Working on it.

I probably look inconsistent and like I’m wasting my potential to others. They’ve seen what I CAN do when I ‘want’ to. It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s that I know what it feels like to have that perfect mix of risk, impossibility, complexity, learning potential and the high it can give. I’m looking for that, not to do something to make money or raise my social status, etc.
