 Jennbeloved -I'm sure God had his reasons.

The answer, {as I've once 'adopted'}; Is human 'free-will'; Of which 'God's critics, on that; Do Not know 'Half-the-story'! ..{even the foremost among 'believers' haven't figured it out.. in the sense of knowing, All the ramifications!}; Yet, they continue to hurl veiled insults, at the One who counter-intuitively; Sent His Son, to suffer-and-Die, for those who have the boldness, to have, the proscribed Faith!

.. One take-away; Is that, in terms of suffering; God, does Not require something of us {collectively}; That He doesn't of Himself!

Anyway; If the suffering of the innocent {humans}; Is at times, as BAD as 'surface appearences' might indicate; I wouldn't be surprised, if 'Yaw-weh' provides other means of human alleviation; Including, temporarily, {or permanently}.. Aborting the suffering {of said innocent person}; By prematurely, removing their 'soul awareness' from their body!?

There are a limited number of personal testimonies to that effect; In plane crashes..{where there are, some suvivors!}.  0:

Is this the same Rick Warren said to worth $25 million?

I read an article on him called 'Fleecing the Flock' 

And his son commited suicide? 

He sounds like he is doing a wonderful job!!!!!

Tempting, as it may be, in 'the natural'; The Scriptures say: 'Judge Not.. lest ye {you} be judged.' .. It's well above our 'pay grade' {if you will}; To either form conclusions, based on limited info; Compared to Not knowing Everything; Or even to necessarily {& automatically}, hold Any parent, to the actions, of their 'offspring'!
Each of us; Is Primarily, accountable, for our Own actions.

Nikprit - I never said, in so-many-words, that I Had 'arrived.' -- If {me} quoting Scripture, in applicaple contexts.. 'makes {you} want to vomit'; Might that be, a Real world manifestation, of the Bigger 'gap' that exists, between yourself and God?! .. Rest assured though, That I'm a very imperfect 'moral' individual, {plus, in numerous secular ways}; Pardon me, though; For engaging in something, I feel Jesus, led me to do; Is infringing, {if sub-consciously}.. on your Own 'Deist' conscience!

P.s. There are All levels of Spiritual awareness & application; Of which, I sense, I'm of some, middle range!  0:

No hope for poor tom.

What with the religeous fanatics high jacking his multiple threads with bull pucky and those saying a suicidal homosexual, what chanch does he have of figuring out who he is?

Just built a regulation washer pit.

2 1/2 inch washers at 25 feet.

2 x 8's... the works. Cups 4 inch pvc.

Good bye chess!

Yep Nikprit. Meditation is an interesting topic. (Without tom of course) The thread evolved well beyond his understanding.

Washers. .. Texas horseshoes

An outdoor game becoming all the rage.

Many variations from bean bags to metal washers.

Actual tournaments. Just search 'washers'.

Hi.

In this thread I will be investigating what is it that we are.

I am going to post what I observe about my consciousness.
