The Bible and slavery

[Cinjin]

Jesus' description of the "world" is the same as Plato's Cave. This is a condition of inner slavery through psychological blindness. For a person beginning to become aware of the human condition as it exists within them and the world, the question becomes more how to awaken to reality rather than fight shadows on the wall in Plato's cave.

Christianity is the reliigion of slaves. Its devolution into Christrendom or what you define as Christianity in society has devolved it into a religion of power. A Christian has come to experience that they are the wretched man and would rather awaken than fight shadows. A Christian knows they are either a slave to what pins them to the world, or higher influences they cannot understand but can provide the inner light tht leads to conscious inner freecom.

This is similar to the Eastern concept of "attachment." Acquiring a higher, conscious perspective requires help from above. In Christianity this help is called grace

Hey look you pretty much proved the point Rhythm made in Post 5. You're going to see whatever the hell you want to see and you're going to interpolate and extract the scriptures as you see fit.

What makes this so painfully ironic is the number of Christians themselves that will completely disagree with you on so many levels. In my opinion, the fact that none of you can see eye to eye on nearly ANYTHING completely nullifies the entire stupid book. You go around screaming how somehow YOU know what god meant to say and yet your own brothers-in-christ think you're a mislead blowhard and that THEY know what god REALLY meant.

It begs the question: Which of the sheep should we choose to believe? YOU?!
Add to all this that I have even less respect for you since you don't even have the balls to admit you're a christian outright, and try to come off as some kind of intellectual who just happens to believe in the bible!
Don't kid yourself pal, you're just as bad as the rest, and right about now, I'm asking myself why did I even bother writing this? I could've saved myself a lot of time and just posted this one little pic:

(hmm, I think Min's startin to wear off on me)
