I lost my Soul

[Brian37]

Elon Musk made a good point about strict industry regulations.
Can you over regulate airline maintenance / safety?

Anyone comfortable cutting any corners whatsoever?

Good point, all the idiots screaming less or no regulation, would not get on a passenger jet if it was missing a flap.

3 - ~ you aren't some sort of a shitposter who drops a giant turd of a thread then leaves.

Please leave our friend CL out of this!

CL is much classier. She just drops turds... and she stays around to discuss them.

[ignoramus]

She knows we love her even if she is one of God's special little turds!

[Whateverist]

Goneguy, you are one sick sock and I hope you get exposed.

I think I see a little further down the road than you think, Atlas.

Nobody deserves hell.  No exceptions.  Not even the worst of the worst in the history of humanity.  Eternal punishment for finite crimes is infinitely unjust, because the punishment is infinitely more than the crime.

 The sin is against an infinite being (God) and a sin unforgiven is infinite, so therefore the punishment is infinite.

GC

Does that actually make sense to you?  You poor sick bastard.

 I like CL, but even with liking her still not going to sugar coat what I think of claims of invisible beings. I love my mom and she died a Catholic, but for quite a long time my mom knew what I thought of all god claims. 

I don't like pretending or lying to people about my positions. Certainly for human rights, but claims as ideas don't deserve to be blasphemy or scrutiny free.

[Whateverist]

Don't get mad GC. That's one of your peoples!

 I seriously doubt it, if this person ever knew God he would not have made all the mistakes he did. I think he's a sock and I hope someone catches him at it. Besides I'm not mad what good would that do me no matter who he is. Actually if he were to be a Christian I just might get a bit upset with him for such a poor expression of what the Bible says. That is definitely no way for a Christian to act.

So is "being a xtian" just an act?

[ignoramus]

Sure is!

"If you'd only" is the same line given by every sect of every religion worldwide. 

"If you were only a Sunni"
"If you were only a Shiite"
"If you were only a Tibet Buddhist"
"If you were only a Chinese Buddhist"
"If you were only Shinto Buddhist"
"If you were only a Mormon"
"If you were only a Obama voting Baptist"
"If you were only a Trump voting Baptist"
"If you were only conservative Jew"
"If you were only a liberal Jew"
"If you were only a Rasta"
"If you were only a Hindu"

"Your not doing it right. You picked the wrong sect. You are not interpreting the holy writing correctly."

Most humans get sold the religion of their parents long before they can develop adult critical thinking skills. Most humans fail to consider that our species ability to be compassionate or cruel are not in a label, not in following a holy person, not in old mythology, but in our genes, in our evolution. Every nation worldwide has hospitals and prisons. And our species long before any written religion, or nation, was evolving through the same acts of compassion and cruelty.

If a religion were required for life to exist, then why are humans the only life on the planet that concocts those things? How is it other life, like ants, and elephants evolved to cooperate without worship? 

If someone hurts another human being for selfish non self defense reasons, that cruelty isn't the result of evil spirits or a super villain with a pitchfork, it is solely that individual's mental state and or economic state leading them to do harm to others. There is no magic needed to explain why humans do either good or bad.

Basically I was a Christian, or at least I thought I was. I kept on sinning and just like it says if you blaspheme the Holy spirit its unforgivable. I ignored his promptings for years and then out of nowhere something in me was different. Literally in an instant. I have been separated from Gods presence here on earth and I cant even describe what it's like, but let me tell you that He loves everyone very much. Its like I don't exist anymore. My spirit's GONE. dead. I'm literally just existing in the flesh with no Love in me. I know I'm going to hell, and its just like the bible says those who reject him will be aware of their coming judgement. I cant stress it enough how important it is to Accept Jesus. Having no soul is like complete apathy, but not really because I cant feel anything. I just process everything around me. No enjoyment, satisfaction, nothing good. Just like the bible says everything good comes from God and it is so hard to describe what having no love, faith, or hope in you at all is like. I just exist, but I don't. I'm just waiting, and I'm aware that I'm going to hell, but it doesn't bother me, because only through love can you truly care about anything. All that's in my heart is wickidness. You know how when you think about past memories or do things you like and you get this good feeling, I have nothing. The dead know nothing. Its indescribable. All I can say is I cant stress enough how much Jesus loves all of you, and that he accepts you just how you are right now. If you can Love at all even a tiny bit, that's all he needs. Trust me when I say anything in this life is nothing compared to what will be waiting for you in heaven. I have no intuition anymore, I have no identity, and I don't mean that to sound dramatic I mean literally. Its like things I used to enjoy and hate I remember that I did like the, but I cant feel it. Nothing, youd think I would freak out, but without a soul it doesn't matter. I cant freak out, because that would require some sort of goodness to actually care. I know it sounds just like depression and apathy, but its not. Its just NOTHING.

Your soul has nothing to do with feeling. You soul is your inner consciousness you ability to self examine is evidence of that. Sounds to me you are dealing with depression. welcome to adulthood. now push all that negitive stuff into a little ball and save it till you go to your next buffet and eat till you feel better (wear jogging pants)

Or do what people do when they get depressed.

[Brian37]

If it were true then I would agree some people certainly do deserve hell.

Since I don't believe it's true then I just hope that the worst of humanity is removed from our ranks sooner than later, and that those who have died are simply as mortal as the rest of us.

I totally believe life is more of a filter. We just pass through that and get categorized according to our actions.
You just sleep better believing that the suffering of others would never be wasted

Coffee makers have a "filter", humans have ideas they view life through. But life itself is not a "filter" it is a process of evolution.
