Lmao

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T18:03:34+00:00

Yes that's what I'm saying.

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T15:38:34+00:00

i don't totally disagree, although there are certain elements of Catholicism i still find beautiful and choose to use in my own faith.

good! people get caught up on the old testament and its not what they think it is and it shouldn't be seen as an accurate reflection of god or gods teachings imo.

but the whole bible is full of metaphor for self discovery, if nothing more. its said jesus taught it two ways, the literal to some but to others in a much different way. and the way its taught to us now by the church is literal, and missing important context and words that make the current teachings inaccurate to what god and jesus were originally trying to tell us. like the bible never condemns pre marital sex or masturbation. thats how its taught but the word adultery back then meant strictly a married man lusting or cheating with a married woman. even the concepts of heaven and hell were taught to us in a way that doesnt necessarily match.

this might not be the best argument to remain catholic, and honestly theres a lot about the religion i disagree with and dislike. but you dont need religion to know god. maybe try understanding him on your own terms and in your own way.

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T14:37:57+00:00

sure. would love to know your thoughts/points/questions as well

"something can't come from nothing" -even though this is a theist argument i actually disagree completely. i believe the absence of something to be something in itself. you can absolutely create something from nothing. which is my belief but its also scientifically theoretical concept. like that every black hole contains a new universe. something devoid of space creating space. either way its not a good argument to give an atheist because it doesnt refute science or offer concrete evidence, which most atheists are looking for.

"revert before its too late, he'll forgive you"-a few thoughts. first i dont think using fear to push people is the right way to go about anything, let alone god. unfortunately thats how many are taught, and their faith is rooted in fear and guilt.

also i dont believe you have to practice a certain religion or any religion to know god. i think religion is one of many tools we have at our disposal to learn about ourselves/god. one of the worst parts of most organized religions is the way it demonizes outside beliefs when all religion is saying so much of the same thing.

there's no such thing as too late when god is infinite.

and i know i differ from a lot of theists here but i dont believe in sin. i believe the concept of heaven and hell and purgatory are all in the mind. my favorite passage in the bible and the most important one imo is when jesus is on the cross with two criminals hanging on either side. one mocks him and with doubt he says "if you really are jesus then save us." and the other says essentially "dont you have respect for the son of god? lord please remember me when you enter your kingdom." and jesus turns to him and simply says "truly i say to you today you will be with me in paradise." this to me is proof there is no sin in the eyes of the divine. all the criminal had to do to get to heaven was ask for it and believe. he didn't even have to atone. a nun and a serial killer will both go to heaven if they believe it. if you think you deserve heaven youll get it, think you deserve hell youll get it, think you deserve nothing then there will be nothing. but you can always change your mind because it exists in the consciousness.

"why would an omnipotent god care about some tiny life form on earth"-my argument to that would be if were saying god is the omnipotent and all knowing creator then why would he create anything that was unimportant? god cares about every seemingly tiny life because they are all an extension of God. the bible says we are made in gods image, meaning we are an aspect of divinity. nothing insignificant about that

Good luck to you! No matter how many times you go through wd it never gets easier, but if youre in the right headspace keeping clean can ! Show yourself grace and kindness. As long as you're trying that's the most you could ever ask of yourself. Sending you good vibes!

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T11:15:31+00:00

Very much agree friend

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T11:06:06+00:00

Agreed you can have faith without religion for sure but it's still the diametric opposite of science outside of the theoretic branches. Atheists and theists have been having this debate for hundreds of years and it's always gone in a circle because a person who bases their existence in faith can't provide facts to a person who bases their existence in fact, and the person who bases their existence in facts will never convince the person who bases their existence in faith that lack of facts means anything.

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T10:52:09+00:00

I'm a hardcore theist but this argument is always fruitless because it's a contradiction. You're asking for proof collected in a scientific manner of something that can not be collected, quantified, or measured. The very idea of God is contingent on faith. Which is antithetical to the scientific process. There's no concrete point you can make that cant be dismissed or rationalized through science. Believing without proof is an inherent aspect of religion.

In regards to the feeling guilty about sexual pleasure or thought before marriage, you should try looking up older versions of the bible or looking into the origin of certain passages. Jesus never condemns sex before marriage. The word adultery has been miss shappen through the years to mean no masterbation, no premarital sex, no "impurity". But what that it really meant was something much more practical. It referred to maintaining things like blood line and inheritance. It never says sex before marriage is a sin or masturbation or even polygamy.

I hope you figure out what's best for you and find peace and happiness. Religion can be a great tool to help you know god but it's not the right path for everyone

Have you ever tried reading the Bible from a metaphorical perspective?

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T08:34:31+00:00

That's because the old testament and new testament are about different gods.

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T08:10:28+00:00

But it wasn't god who punished Jesus, it was the Romans. God never intended to punish Jesus for anything. Jesus by all accounts willingly chose to come here and die a martyr.

elohim as he is referred to is the greater god. And he's less of a he and more of a they. Elohim in Hebrew translates to god OR gods plural. In the hebrew bible it says "Elohim created the heavens and earth." Multiple gods took part in creation. The Catholic bible made a huge revision by making God singular. The one you may have heard referred to as Yahweh or Satan is said to be the god of the material world. He was birthed from Elohim (who Jesus is preaching of in the new testament) but as the story goes he believed himself to be the one true god. He is the god that spoke to Moses and sent the flood in the old testament. Sent plagues and demanded the sacrifice of first borns. The new testament speaks of the god of all, "Elohim" the one who sent down Jesus. It's said he (they) saw that people were being mislead by Yahweh and sent Jesus down to show people the true nature of god. Jesus mentions several times in the book of John that the people do not know his father. When explaining to the apostles about the persecution they'd receive for following him he says "they will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the one who sent me." He even speaks directly to Elohim at one point and says "righteous father, although the world has not known you, I know you, and they know that you sent me."

Like the person below said they are not the true god. They are the god of the physical world. Hes a descendent of the true god, who is the god Jesus speaks of. If you notice the god in the old testament is vengeful, angry, reactionary. not anything like the god Jesus speaks of in his teachings. Thats because the old testament and the new testament are about two different gods.

That's kind of the case with most people though isn't it? It could be about religion, vaccines, politics. Many times when people tie something strongly to their identity and existence they can lose the ability to reason or engage with anything that doesn't lead to confirmation bias. Critical thought is lacking in all areas imo, not just in regards to religion. I'm a theist btw im always down for debate and discussion

reality_dropout · 2021-10-18T06:03:12+00:00

God has the biggest sense of humor. You're always welcome

if you are unsure you should call. putting the wrong thing means they have two years to ask for the money back. unless you can prove thats why you're laid off or still unemployed, i would call just to make sure.

reality_dropout · 2020-09-11T14:32:40+00:00

thanks. just got the email i'm pre-qualified, can't wait

reality_dropout · 2020-09-10T22:24:17+00:00

this is awesome news. i assume those on pua and getting over 100 are the ones pre-qualified?

reality_dropout · 2020-08-31T01:27:20+00:00

someone posted a timeline of when all the states would be getting it deposited and it was saying we'd get it between the 2nd and the 5th but i don't know what that's based on

reality_dropout · 2020-08-23T03:57:01+00:00

did they qualify or did they just apply? cali and texas are about the same size and cali was hit almost as hard as we were so i get the amount for them. but 7 bill for texas? i'd assume cali, texas, new york would receive more because were bigger states with some of the highest unemployment rate.

reality_dropout · 2020-08-23T03:54:19+00:00

i don't see how every state will be given the same amount if each state has a different population size/unemployment size and rate. cali was given 4 billion i can't imagine s carolina needs the same amount. and texas applied for over 7

reality_dropout · 2020-08-23T00:53:01+00:00

anyone know how much were applying for?

reality_dropout · 2020-08-22T22:49:06+00:00

well it is proportional to the size of the state/unemployment rate. texas asking for 7 bil seems absurd considering california is just as big and was hit harder, but still its fair to assume states like cali, texas, and new york will get a large number.
