Right to vent without being argued with.

No matter what you say no one will disagree with you. Complain,whine, or rant and people will back you on it.

believers in Heavenly Father must jusitfy to non-believers the existence of unjust suffering.

non-believers must justify the existence of everything else.

thanks pokethebear

 It's a lot more than that. The entire idea of a "heavenly father" is childish.  

be at peace

the alternative vent:

i purchased a car bumper sticker today, at the cost of $11.00.

it reads "never trump".

i am a conservative ( actually more of a social tradtionalist ).

the only democrat i ever voted for president was jimmy carter.

i will never vote for trump.

better that the republican party nominate a good person and lose with grace than support trump and lose in disgrace.

Sure. By "childish", I mean believers in "heavenly fathers" have created a mythological family figure perhaps as a result of fear and security. Of course, this at first appears to be the harmless imaginings of children, but it hasn't turned out that way. The belief in things that aren't real in adulthood has led to centuries of unclear thinking and political manipulation. 

i am so tired of this point of view.

be at peace tryst, for your heart is angry.

you have not read the name of the forum

you post what you like and no one disputes your statement.

the forum is a billboard on the road of life.  read it.  pass it by, or tap the horn in agreement, but do not ever post a dispute on what you have read

the person who created this forum is a zen master...not me.

Is this the point of view that you find most difficult to argue with, thus the frustration? And I'm not angry, I'm having a nice day:)

may we all not start again ?

( it is hard to learn a new way )

i like cats but i hate cat boxes in the bathroom.

i also like women ( but you know who they destroy a nice bathroom....hair in the sink, "women stuff" on the counter, underwear drying on the shower door, lotions and "things" all over the sink.

my collie dog may leave hair on the floor...but i am willling to put up with far more than a woman in my bathroom.

the point of this most amazing post ( not by me ) is that the next person to post must post something which does not disagree with any upper post.

it is possibly the most open space one may find.

i have a limited mind and a very limited idea of the way life should be, but at this forum there is something rare.

truth.

A thread that allows you to make unchallenged statements seems in error with the point of a forum?

there are other places for you to speak.

why stay here where you are unwillling to live in the village created ?

i did not create this forum.  i merely respected the author.

those of you who have not respected the meaning and name of this place have destroyed this free and open space.

I'm protesting the conditions of life for the village. If I leave the village alone to brainwash the villagers then my own village becomes endangered

Tom, since you have not made a coherent argument against free will, then I'll have to disagree with you

i leave.

detirus and flotsam wins.

they win not with intelligence...but flotsam.
