water,
If you look at what prompted it, you'll understand. You may veil your insults, but I tend to just say what I mean. It wasn't directed at me, but I too "stuff" myself full of psychotropic drugs to help with a seratonin imbalance. Does this make me weak also?
I will listen to reason. And I am not delusional. I don't expect a scientifically rigorous statement of your faith. As I said, I would like a better understanding of this "belief" predisposition that theists have.
So that I might have a better time of smiting them when the time comes.
That was smartass humor. I use it sometimes to lighten the mood. Sometimes it dosen't work.

SouthStar;(Godless have you taken a look at the IIDB? )
yes! I'm a member, don't post much but learn plenty. It's very educational they are somewhat in a different level in debating skills, flaming and too much ad hominem is not tolerated though, but overall it's a very good site to read some serious debates from authorative figures from both side of the theist/atheist debate. I go by the Same name.

Water,
Feel better sweetie? You hurt me so, with your self-absorbed prattle.
P.S. Sorry I haven't responded sooner, but it is great to be back. Took a little break from the seriousness of the forums. GREAT TO SEE YOU ALL STILL HERE!!!!

Because it makes sense.
School of life, among others.
Oh, wait, is that water? The water that God loves? Watch it girlie, or you will cut yourself off from God and Kalomiros.
Come on water; you haven't been raped, spiritually?
At least this depressed, ex-druggie is being honest with himself for a change, unlike some I know.
Why do you insist on being a moron? Why do you think I am prancing around with what I have done? Because I come here looking for help someplace outside of my own experience, of not finding it? Are you saying you are better than the rest of us? Are you being a smug, hypocritical religious zealot now? Is that your current hat of the day?
Exactly. What's your point? I know my track record and my tendencies.
Not because you aren't "good enough" for me, but because you are simply trying to take me somewhere I've already been, multiple times, and you are too dense to listen to my side of the story. You are trying to feed me another line of religious bullshit, especially you water, with your "You don't know the real God. You better look a little harder." But hey, if delusion works for you, and it will for a while, I promise you, then more power to you.
Ungrateful? What am I ungrateful for, you snobby little Slovenian twat?
P.S. What does the title of this thread say about you, if anything?

Why?

Water: I have been promised it
And who whispered that promise in your ear?
You believe in a promise made by people who wrote it in a book, if like Joan of Arc you experienced God speaking to you in vision or heard his bellowing voice keep it to yourself because they'll lock you up and fill you with meds but I doubt you hallucinated the said 'promise', you simply believed what was given to you one lost, searching, striving human to another.

Faith is a fucking choice.
Seems to me you're dicking around with it as if it's a toy.
You either believe, don't....
or dick around and drive yourself insane with lack of commitment.
If you believe in god, do so, and as such there's nothing to doubt.
If you do doubt... you're doing it wrong and shouldn't bother believing, or should learn to believe right.
IMO, believing right is pretty simple....
The belief is proof enough. It doesn't lead to questions.
If it does you're not believing.
That's my boolean interpretation anyway.
Oh, or you could just realize how ridiculous it is and get a chuckle out of it, rather than taking it so seriously as to give you emotional issues.
(didn't realize the huge gap in time, pardon)

I feel relieved. Thank you.
Of course you're not the same you as then, but parts of the you then exist now in you.
You were the you you were but aren't that you now, excepting of course the part of you that you survived the moments you've had between the then you and the now you.
Hmm..
I don't have the strength to make that stupid thing any longer and more ridiculous at the moment, but it was fun while it lasted.

This brings back some good memories, and some bad. Thanks for bringing it all forward to the present. Damn, I'm a pompous fool.

lesson number one:
ask an idiot a silly question, expect a silly answer.
Just how long should it take to get beyond that?
water said:
I do. That was my point.
Still the same superficially clever responses while what the hell they really mean or what for is anybody's guess.
Eventually, inevitably, it gets to be a habit,
with everything you do,
superficially clever but why, what for?
A matter of content rather than the style,
water that flows as if to find the lowest level.
Where is the manifesto?

Did anybody know you then?
I mean, if this is not too personal, when you ask Wes "And do you think I am the same as I was 255 days ago?" did he have some kind of inside information that I would not have now, by reading through the old threads?
Just trying to make sense,
to see it objectively.
The backdrop may have changed but the tendency to dick around with it as if it is a toy,
is that so different?
How does one hope to assess oneself in that respect?
"dick around with it as if it is a toy" appeals to me as a description of much of what goes on at another place we both know.
