I wished you lived next door so we could talk. You have always been kind to me.

Nah. I've been a dick to you before. You just don't remember. But you've always been kind to me.

In a nutshell, the bible is our instructions of how to live a glorious life...

But is it right to impose that on others? Is a glorious life possible without the Bible? Is a not-so-glorious life possible with it?

I don't usually impose but if it's brought up... Or, getting hammered by a antitheist.

God wants us shiny like a star in the night sky or a candle in a dark room. The Greek word translated as 'glory' is doxa and means to shine forth. God's purpose is to glorify us as plainly stated in Romans 8--"those He calls...He glorifies". Jesus told us "Don't hide it...let it shine".


But the church wants to glorify God? How? They are backwards! The reason God wants us to look good, and be shiny, is so that He looks good to others around us. That's what it means to be a true witness; testimony. Not running around asking people, "Are you saved?"

Life as an abundance glorifies God. But, both death and life are a fragrant aroma to God. Some don't live life such as pastors, Apostle Paul, Timothy, as death works in them that we might have life in God's Word and that more abundant. And we should be grateful for them. Some  sacrifice there own lives so that others may live. I'm no Catholic but Mother Theresa is an AWESOME example of that. When it comes time for her evaluation: I'm gonna wear shades!

God's Word is the light to my path and the guide to my feet and I always end up at the perfect place at the perfect time in history to be in perfect places. That's the story of my life. It freaked me out! Like walking off a cliff! It's a narrow path that few find but it looks just like Jesus in a mirror! He just said, "You, Follow Me!"

Stay shiny my friend!

Isaiah 1:18 King James Version (KJV)

"Come now, and let us reason together, ....... (The rest of this verse is pure bullshit!)"

[Rev. Rye]

Here’s another verse I have a personal connection to: Exodus 8:2.

“And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs.”

Why this verse? Well, here’s the story: I’m 1999, Paul Thomas Anderson was working on a film called Magnolia and he made the insane step of making a three-hour movie with about a dozen interlocking plot points and wrapping them all up in a bow like this:





PTA’s initial inspiration for this crazy idea was the works of Charles Fort, who wrote of strange phoenomena, but in pre-production, he found out about this verse. As a result, he decided to incorporate the numbers 8 and 2 into the movie as foreshadowing (and the IMDB trivia page says he managed to do so over a hundred times.)

And then, in 2005, I discovered that film, and the audacity of such a move inspired me to do something odd that I may or may not have told you about before:

A local news station, I forget which one, sent crews to my high school and decided to have the whole student body in the gym cheering over something. And we had to be there at 4:30 in the fucking morning. And as part of this display of whatever it was supposed to be, when the cameras were on us, we were also supposed to be holding up identical signs with our school logo on it. I decided to write “Ex. 8:2” on the back of it, like that lunatic with the “John 3:16” sign. So, I did this on local television (and they did this whole thing twice and I’m fairly certain both times were in 2005) and, apart from seeing a teacher double take at the sight and having to repeatedly explain what Exodus 8:2 said to confused students (bizarrely, they didn’t ask “why that verse?” Just what the text was.)

I think my parents recorded it, and I have no idea where to find it. And, honestly, if you saw it, it’d barely register because the camera quality was so shitty and I was such a small fish in the crowd and my “Ex. 8:2” was done in such thin print that you could only see one guy who had his sign backwards.
