Oh yeah...and what about ignoring me..I would actually appreciate that..as i have other things to do..But I always defend my integrity..there is no record of that being broke in over 6 million words...

Can you say the same...

Hmmm..

I didn't think so...

if so...

So God is a metaphor or what?

If I am getting you right, are you saying that God doesn't exist in a physical or literal sense, but that some people with certain qualities can experience this "metaphor thing" you call "God" in their lives?

Is that what it's all about or am I getting you wrong?


Well..metaphors can be a way to communicate the nuances of power that IS what I describe as GOD..

IT is a higher power that IS ALL.. that allows me to do things without experiencing the ''normal' effects of gravity like curling 210 Lbs.. that is the stack.. on a nautilus machine at more weight than most any 23 year old marine at the military base that I personally equipped with government money when I was Athletic Director there..can lift...

This equipment is for professional athletes..and I was the skinniest looking kid anyone ever saw at 13 at 5 foot 10 and 120 Lbs..

So yeah..even at 53..6ft and 222LBs of solid muscle..this feat is still extraordinary at 53...

But I AM not the only one by far..Jack La Lane did similiar feats well past my age...as he tapped into this same GOD energy I AM talking about..

There is no need for labels for the essence that IS IT.. just IS that IS ALL...

And guess what..GOD is not an equal opportunity employer..what you get out of this life is what you put into it..there are no
guarantees in life..and the bad sh** that happens IS part of GOD too...

If You ever find yourself in true human hell as I did...you will totally understand that there is a GOD and there is no FAIR GOD IT IS ALL there IS and like IT or not..GOD is your master..that determines your ultimate faith..and/or fate....

So on a whim..who knows..make the waves..and maybe you'll come back as a cricket and be smashed underfoot a thousand times..before graduating to roach..how the f*** would you know if this is not the way the whole thing works..

No you don't and neither do I as all the energy that was iS and WILL be again...

The form that exists as consciousness in the future for you..may or may not exist..in the grand mix of energy that is..

Ok..I know that's getting a little abstract..but yeah that is exactly how GOD works..

If tHERE IS NO language..people ARE just starting out to try to communicate their existence to others someway.. somehow...

Language cannot describe the Universe..fully IT can only attempt try to describe GOD as ALL..

So the metaphor is just a vehicle or vessel to understand the GOD TH@IS TRUE that IS ALL..

TO HAVE THE BEST LIFE POSSIBLE AS IS..

WHY NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE OR VESSEL TO THE BEST..

ALL I KNOW IS I AM SMART ENOUGH TO DO IT...

And yeah lucky too.. as I could be a seagull eating raw meat on the beach 'write' about now...

We are all instruments of GOD that iS ALL there IS TO It..

Enjoy the wave my friend..

And stay on top until you drown..

God gave you a gift..

Th@ is ALL...

Make IT GRE@ or MAKE IT weak...
IS ALL UP to YOU AND WE OR yOuRs and i....
as US...
But GOD is the Master of ALL...
AS ALL is GOD..AS ONEISOneNOWON!

By the way I could just as well call GOD..'whatever' as opposed to GOD..Yes! GOD is only a metaphor my friend..for the essence that IS...

And as promised..
The other supporting evidence that does back up my claim of living alive once again..walking in light and yes being that Light and Love..

TH@id e scribe as love and LIGHT....

In case anyone wonders what NF-4 means in government service..IT is a pay band equivalent to the old GS rating of 9 through 11..
And yes..I am paid at he end of my career at 50Kplus..the GS11..Pay Rate... at that time..in 2008...

Documented in this Link..along with a little story..about true Gratitude if one wills...

By the way..as far as the devil face goes..documented in the link..in an informal survey of various Super Walmart customers..last night! shortly after I made a cameo appearance as the devil there..captured by iphone5...

All the customers surveyed said! I am as scary or scarier than the devil incarnate..

So HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I AM always ready for HALLOWEEN..
ANDNOIDO NOT EVEN NEED A MASK...

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH..H......

I TOLD PEOPLE HERE SOME TIME ago.. GOD IS a LAUGH AND 'NO' I AM JOKING....

http://katiemiafrederick.com/2013/10/11/greitude/

Uh OH! I see a full moon brewing out my window..
It IS almost werewolf time again...and yeah..IT's hard to say if
I AM the devil or a werewolf in that picture..just imagine a werewolf face
instead of a devil face..if you will..basically the same thing..the wild inherent nature...
OF MAN is REALLY ALL THIS STUFF IS A SYMBOL FOR ANYWAY FROM THE DOMESTICATED WAY OF LIFE..
WE DO HAVE NOW...
I AM NO LONGER DOMESTICATED..HEHE...HAHA...HUH?HEH!Y

Well here's the thing..not everyone get's to be the light and love and not everyone experiences..miracles..
like I said..God Is not fair..and unfortunately as my best 'Super Power" is seeing the soul of others through their eyes..and yeah these Guys are dead in affect..as far as their connection to God goes..

But yeah...been their done the dead stuff too..and oh well that is life and GOD..

Not everyone gets to be the light...

It is a special gift that IS ALL..

And yeah..one can even call IT the chosen Ones if one likes..

As who knows those who walk in darkness instead of light and life..that is the love of God..may never experience prayers or miracles that are real..as who knows..only GOD knows if KARMA REally exists..and they are just working off their Karmic debt of death and darkness as opposed to light and love and life that makes prayers and miracles real in some people's lives but only dead in affect in other people's life...

The mysteries are many...the answers are truly few....
I've got so many answers I cannot yet put into words..but there is time my friend in NOW to continue to pursue to adequately share the BLISS that some people actually do....live in light and love..forevernowoneasall...

IT IS THE GIFT THAT IS ALL

I have to concede that my aversion to religious experience probably has as much to do with being a Lutheran as it does with being an Aspie. Lutheranism has never put any emphasis on experience and enthusiasm. Even though evangelicals maintain Luther himself had had a born again experience when reading Romans, "The just shall live by faith," the fact is, it wasn't a matter of the old man suddenly becoming saved, he rather realized he had been saved all along.


Bill,

The experience I am talking about is loving God.


Oh, no disagreement here with love. I'm talking about some sort of wham bam thank you ma'am experience where you suddenly are saved, when you weren't before.

-Bill, otherwise known as Kraichgauer


Which is exactly the issue I have with the Calvinists and the Arminians. I grew up in a church heavily influenced by Arminian thought. A lot of times, I would see people answer the altar call, have the emotional experience, then never see them again. Luther himself even said we must die to sin every day, through confession of sin.

One sees separation or one sees unity. There cannot be both - because this is the 'duality' that I know of, and it's an ego compromise.

All of our conventional senses will teach seperation. Those who believe in the form will see separation. They'll have little moments where things seem different, of course, but will brush them away as being 'the dream'. When, the opposite is true.

Form, like time, is transitory and temporary. One day, when our journey into procrastination is over, and our internet dramas seen for what they are ( ! ) we all will know that what you're saying is true.

Understanding will come - but not necessarily on our ego's terms, and certainly not on my ego's terms.

Love to all my brothers, regardless of what they currently believe. What's true is true.

What more is there really to say? :D

I AGREE with you b9..i suppose I could be in dangerous w@ers...

If this IS the 'real world'..as there are some reALLy angry atheists out there in the real world...

But this is just the internet..and I AM still anonymous here...

So I AM not in any danger here...

But as Love I AM also almost completely uninhibited in real life in sharing thIS....

simple GOD th@IS so yeah..I do admit I tread in dangerous waters there...

in the general public...

But I AM fearless now to share this simple LOVE TH@IS GOD...

th@IS the Powerful force of me...

NoW...

And interestingly enough I AM probably in even more dangerous W@ers with
the Christians in my area..who some of which KNOW GOD LESs than my wonderful atheist friends....

HERE AND THERE in the 'real world'...

No, no one is my god, but yes like you, I admire his ability to say things succinctly and with clarity. He had a wonderful way to expose the eccentricities of humans in such a humourous way (especially the English). Come to think of it I have been a bit Gideon like. I hate to think of how many copies of h2g2 I have given as presents. 8O :lol:

aghogday I see nature in all its glory you seem to see something else.
