@SIGMAPROFESSOR@basedethos You're right to point out how difficult it is for people to confront uncomfortable introspective questions.
But don't you (completely inadvertently, I'm sure) find yourself looking at least a bit cool for having the constitution to engage in real spirituality & walk on hot coals?
@DionysianAgent But where do you get this from?
You speak with such arrogant certainty.
Christians would probably attribute that vague, guiding spiritual phenomena to the Holy Spirit, I would have thought.
Jesus was quite authoritative, and he said God's nature was the same as his - not too bad
@CardinalMason Introversion is a biologically real & hard-wired cognitive preference.
The introvert's psychological stamina will always decrease over time whilst engaging in social interaction.
So it isn't something they can do continually; they will need to retreat into solitude to recharge.
@lumpenspace Lying about yourself is never any good for your psychology, that's true.
How could we ever grow as people, with such shallow motivations and intent?
And at the same time, you should always keep firmly in your mind that you actually owe no one any explanation of yourself at all..
@fcblnv @milenialmentor You only need 20 minutes of sunlight for the vitamin D..
..Or you could just do what I do, and take a daily A-Z vitamin tablet 🤷
The damage caused to skin by UV light is well known - and I have no natural defence against it, either.. 😬
@Jenny_541672913@sarah_ironside@Kerrys_Eye Well, really *really* though.. White does show up on 23&Me in the guise of things like "European" and "North Western European."
@SShepard33@antti_nannimus @Olu_Utd14 You're basically under the impression they're merely pretending not to believe in God, just as a coping mechanism, so that they can behave however they like in life.
But no, they're just the kids who no longer believe in the Santa Claus nonsense.
It really is no different to them
@thepearjoseph Hm. If I had to guess, I'd assume they're leaning on those things as precedent within human history.
Well I suppose if it's meaningful to them, then it's meaningful to them 🤷
@frogmaster300@KR3Wmatic He said the narrow path was difficult to even find.
And this is as he was teaching us all about how to find it, mind you..
So I don't really see how you can say it's a "choice." What a nonsense.
"You can have the amazing thing or the terrible thing. It's entirely up to you!🤡" 😂
@ColeWRLD_00@George727000@Hermesthethrice@McNasty I doubt it. I think he genuinely finds it implausible.
And obviously we're all entitled to our beliefs; it's superfluous and silly for you to be stating that.
But what it does do is reveal your true motives.
For you, the whole pay off here is in the unassailable power trip.
Sham.
@SShepard33@antti_nannimus @Olu_Utd14 They would say they're just biological organisms without any supernatural elements, or something like that.
But they definitely wouldn't describe themselves as "walking meat."
And they wouldn't decide to mention anything at all about a"soul" unless specifically prompted to do so.
@phase2isnow@MrDrainPipe@Helios_Movement I don't find your words inspirational either.
The advice was just the "go do something hard and make something of yourself" line.
How could that appeal to him in light of the nihilistic-sounding thing he said?
You should add in some meaning & purpose; don't just rely on bullying
@desccia @cgarrison0908 Yes, that's the misrepresentation I was referring to.
You claim he is a porn addict..
Whereas his thread explicitly tells us that he successfully quit porn use only once he dropped the Christianity, and subsequently developed his own independent sense of personal responsibility.
@HarryFStoggs @christendom33 @cgarrison0908 Well that's your reframing - and I suspect it's agenda driven, tbh.
But it doesn't seem at all true to what he's really saying.
He frames the issue as Christianity having previously afforded him a convenient mechanism to avoid real inner change.
He refers to it as sand wizardry.
