(December 25, 2016 at 2:12 am)scoobysnack Wrote: Basically what it means is either you serve yourself, or you serve others and God. By serving others through God, you serve yourself because we are all one. However if you only serve yourself, you can't serve others and God. God wants us to serve others, because in the end we grow ourselves while we grow others towards God.

This is silly. The underlying premise is that there are no overlapping interests between myself and the rest of humanity ... an obvious absurdity which discounts any mutual values, feelings, and interests. The idea that one can only arrive at such concordances through religious faith is fatuous.
