I wonder what it feels like to be this full of your self? Does the light emanating from your own eyes blind you when you shave?

Why do you want to be non-conforming? Is that the main reason you are an atheist, is to be non-conforming? That's weak.

Light does not emanate from me, but everyday I am becoming much more enlightened. You will never be enlightened, nor holy, nor worthy of much respect. Do you know why? Because no one would ever percieve you that way. You are already dead. You have nothing new. I know you. I know how you are going to react. You are predictable. You are a sheep. From my higher vantage point, looking down on your pettiness, I feel some pity, but mostly disdain. You do not enlighten, you only whine and complain. But don't worry, you are not alone, you are not original.

You see, I have attained "buddha-mind", while you have attained nothing but a CONFORMIST education........at best.

Oh well now you're just being boorish. I guess you don't know from sarcasm. I don't care about conformity but it is clear that the buddhaboy likes to stand out. Maybe you'll find a little insight someday. God knows you could use it.

Hello all...Reverend Jeremiah here

For some reason I am unable to access my profile on this forum. I put in my passwords and it just ignores me like I am some kind of troll.

I wonder why it is happening to me?

Quote:Hey tell that to your grandfather or oldest relative, that his age doesn't matter nor does his wisdom and experience from senority. He'll probably smack you a good one across the mouth for being a conceited little punk. Paul's stance and history, his stance of liberty and history of morality, you mean? Oh, that doesn't appeal TO YOU. Well, Why would it? I would guess that nothing much good or virtuous would ever appeal to you. You stand for nothing but your own selfish needs, desires and prejudices, which is nihilism defined.

I never knew my grandfather on my fathers side. My mothers father, on the other hand, loved me very much and taught me to ask questions and to be skeptical.

Regardless, I find your language to be extremely foul and offensive. To suggest that you would know what my family would do, all the while insulting me and suggesting violence... quite rude... I would never presume to speak for your family in the way you just did to me, and quite frankly I have lost what little respect I had for you after such a post.

Hello Rev. I'm considering applying your favorite solution and putting buddhaboy on ignore. He sure is flaming out big time here. I wonder why he bothers with such low-level, un-evolved cretins as ourselves. Surely there is a website for the enlightened he could join where such low life would be barred. What a narcissist, hey?

Narcissists react with rage when they feel criticized. Buddhaboy needs desperately to see himself as above and beyond the ordinary. He sure doesn't want to be trifled with. (I can't resist. It's really for his own good. Guess that's why he's here?)

I posted information above about 9/11 and our current foreign policy above. But the conversation took a turn with personal attacks about being sheep or non sheepish, lets stick to topics. Personal attacks solve nothing and only promote animosity based on differing opinions which does not help reach the truth, which is what we are all after.

Wow, you sure are full of yourself. I bet the Buddha would be proud.

Doesnt sound like enlightenment to me. Sounds like he has a brickload of issues on his shoulders

You know that's not what I'm saying, and I don't even know why you brought it up unless it's a straw man argument. I simply stated that a "sheep" as refers to a person is someone who just blindly follows a leader, any leader, and doesn't seem to know how to think for themselves. Just because we agree with a fellow poster here on atheist forums doesn't mean we're blindly following and agreeing with every single thing he says.

A sheep complains about people asking too many questions - Like BGOOD did when I posted about Ron Paul

A sheep doesnt want to look too deep into his leader or his ideology - Like BGOOD did when I posted about Ron Paul

A sheep blindly repeats things that he is told to repeat, like the 9-11 conspiracy theory - Like BGOOD did

A sheep ignores facts and brings up the same points over and over again - Like BGOOD did when I posted about Ron Paul

Ok personal attacks are stupid, but I felt that I was being dissed because I support Ron Paul and 911 conspiracy theroies. But now i have SCIENTIFIC PROOF employing the scientific method that WTC towers were taken down with explosives! PLease watch, and provide REASONABLE comments.

That doesn't link anything to the U.S. Government, anyone could've planned it.
