So I called those beings/ being the devil.(July 17, 2011 at 4:17 pm)Rhythm Wrote: Inspired by the devil? Seriously wtf?
Im sure he meant for the context to be that the bible God seems more like a devil than the very devil in their mythology.
I actually believe that the revealed religions have a litle bit of inspiration coming from those beings. However maybe its just my schizophrenia that made me believe in those beings. Like I believe that Jesus if he really existed was a schizhophrenic who was right about some things but wrong about many, hence Dawkins t shirt atheist for Jesus.
I understand that my beliefs could be a bit crazy for you but that's what they are at the moment. I believe what I believe.
You can give comments to what I have said and I am more than happy to consider your point of view. If I was to say something else to what I am saying I would be a liar. Either way, atheists are a great bunch because you reject nonsensical, cruel and contradicting scriptures and that makes you a better person.
I totally understand your views. I mean we both reject revealed religions, only I believe in my own beliefs. And the God I believe in loves you as much as he loves me and Gods child and everyone else wich is infinitelly.
I said before and I will say it again as a reminder and that's that I believe in evil spiritual beings because of the dreams that I had while psychotic. I mean I was tormented in my dreams and I would sense the presence of great evil and I interpret those experiences the way they feel.
So if those beings exist than there could be w a God who created them but acording to my logic revealed religions are false. It's all in your intuition,the knowledge of right and wrong.
Now these are my beliefs and if anyone responds to this post I will respectfully consider your arguments if you disagree. Although I find it hard to respect revealed religions.
Thanks
