RTHST (receiving the holy spirit today)
Ham replied to cman's topic in Doctrinal: Exploring the Bible
I wonder what is wrong with this as well.. a spark of the divine.. a seed..feed it, and one cannot determine what grows.. born again. the seed.. to be perfectly honest.. who planted this seed in me. It happened in about 1962 or so.. God is Love, Jesus is Lord.. what has the seed produced.. somehow I agreed. Now lets just feed that thought.. I hope that you will accept the consequences.. it has not been pleasant in a Worldly view. -

So then, do we really need more in this life. If we accept redemption.. what do we do now. These are questions that I constantly try to answer, from the time I arise, to the time I sleep.. the hardest part is dealing with those less than sane than myself.. heh. No, I am not complaining. Less sane might be easier.. heh. Might be a better logical choice.. -

Personally.. I think he was looking for validation. And Eastern Religion refused to validate.. for some that is what is the word.. can't put God in a box.. still struggling for words.. maybe it is this: "we've tried that already. " you want validation? There is none.. Conquer yourself. Forget the rest of the known world.. Same thing for his followers.. Loy wanted to be "right". Sorry, it is statistically an impossibility.. What do you think, dear friend.. -

Yeh. I agree. Personally.. I think I had spirit from birth. Maybe even before.. Too much. The sixties. We find the light.. and some of us walked away. I dunno. Maybe we go to the light.. and try to put the light in old wine skins.. nice if enlightenment agreed with what we already thought we knew.. Thanks Dear Friend for the discussion.. -

Mike is really a good guy. He is one of the good guys. I hope that I am the same. Some of you have a hard time reading him.. in my opinion. Everybody has their axioms.. can't really exist without one or more.. If one assumes an axiom.. one needs more than convincing evidence to abandon it. My axioms are simpler.. I wake up each morning and convince myself that I can still count to ten.. and sometimes even that is too much. -

I agree with the first post of the discussion. How arrogant to assume that you are not a Spiritual Being. How dare *you* whoever you are, to usurp my small that it is, spiritual authority.. -
I'm trying to figure out how to reply to rocky's post. Mathematics Destroys Brands. I always read the labels. I don't care what the label (brand) has to say.. show me the numbers, show me some statistics.. fortunately.. in the US.. the brands are .. what is the word.. forced to report at least partially honest statistics
-
Yes talked about the many ones of one of me.. maybe I'll post on a Friday Ruined.
-
Responding to difficulty.. sometimes it is my core being.. the logical response is generally a justification or an after-thought.. We are so many characteristics.. People are singularities.. I think that that is a false assumption.
-
sadly, the internet censor here would bleep out most of my response. "" you all. If Paw still has the AI censor installed.. What an interesting life here.. despite rumors, lack of rumors, promises, promises failed, I still have everything that I really need in this life. And am generally happy.. Please feel free to forward the posts of the Squirrel to your mental health professional. "f" you all, with the love of God.. God help me, I still can't abandon the love of God. No way. Good Evening.. Love, The Squirrel.

Heh. maybe it's we were addicted to connection in the past life.. some kind of cosmic rehab.. heh reject me? Sheesh.. its what you do.. go right ahead. See if I even care.. heh
-
Maybe we are in some kind of "cosmic time out" where we need to learn how not to expect or assume too much.. heh.
-
I did not read very many comments here.. I see the big banners, why rejection hurts.. need connection.. disappointment of said connection.. rejection again, and again, and again. Sounds like the story of my life- at least personally. TWI seemed to attract DEEPLY damaged individuals ("nutcases", including myself). I lost both parents before high school graduation. Invitation to any kind of family context or friendship is absolutely irresistible. I have only refused the invitation in the few times that the promise was obviously logically ridiculous. I've learned to ask a few critical questions. Yep. I'll come.. but can you really deliver on the promise.. No, they will not be family. Even family has a poor record of really being family. I still hold out hope.. that somehow, someday, I will find real family. If they want to believe that the Moon is made of Green Cheese.. maybe I could live with that or not argue too much about it. Still looking for family.. pretty pathetic at 67 years old. Why don't we talk more.. spend more time.. I've learned quite a few of your languages, english, spanish, music, mathematics, physics, chemistry, engineering, morse code, and probably a few more.. might more belong to Doctrinal- Genesis 11:6, 7 and 8.

Hmm. Why am I here.. OH. wishing you were here.. if only I could go back to 1974, on a Thursday night. I would take you with me.

Splinter work IS the wierwille legacy
Ham replied to skyrider's topic in Out of the Way: The Offshoots
In 500,000 years my wealth will mean pretty much zero to any given future historian.. Now this will be the same opinion.. to the married dentists who accumulated about 5 million bucks. Even in the current scheme of things that is really small potatoes. Yep. "they managed to make money".. along with a few million other creatures.. God only knows who or what they were.. heh -

Ham replied to skyrider's topic in Out of the Way: The Offshoots
My particular offshoot would spend entire weekends looking at cryptic scribblings, equations, interesting properties of numbers. Of course you will not find any of that in PFAL. I won't say none.. there are a few numbers there.. The interesting thing.. I have a lot of non PFAL grads signing up for this very thing with substantial amount of money.. unfortunately I do not get much of a cut of the profits. But then I am not exactly complaining. Money? who frigging cares.. it is so temporal. Necessary, but temporal. -
Nice to have friends in this life. It is (or would be) treasure more than gold..
-
well.. different. Only if it wants to be.. heh
-
Absolutely. Unlike my fellow firesign afraid to walk into the open jaws of disaster.. Oh, what did you want by the way? Friggin morons.. we don't go up into the hills cowards.. heh sheesh. You only live this life once. Only the next one can be different..
-
Personally, things are not good here, but things are getting better. I get larger problems to deal with day by day. The funniest thing this week. I show up to the "job". God, it is more than a Job.. heh Due to Craziness. What in the Hell am I supposed to be doing this morning.. heh I ask a fellow victim: where the hell are we.. only section 3.3? "yep. that's it.." "OK" I'll do it.. heh No real complaints here. Things could be worse. OK. How about you?
-
Powerful gasoline, a shoe shine.. heh Over.
-
It's a kind of Firesign Theatre thing. I know that Mike would appreciate it.. heh. but how are you all, dear Friends? How are you this evening.. how is life.. Maybe this is a wellness check.. what's up. I regard you all as friends.
-
I think that we all are there.. and the question presented to me. Would I allow another human (or super-human depending upon your point of view) to endure this kind of punishment on my behalf to gain eternal salvation.. I personally.. would not want my present stupidity to cause another being in this universe to experience unnecessary pain At least in regards to my small reality here.. Just give it all to Jesus.. I don't exactly deny redemption. I think that it is a higher state that one must live up to. How are we going to live it.. live a redemptive life. Walk in His Steps. The choice might require walking into the worst that is to come.
