i know but why do so many people claim a connection with God and there is so much written about the love of God and some of the writings are very fascinating to read
I think the best answer is just that it's a messed up world out there.
People are willing to risk death to take a unique selfie so it's not surprising that some people die for religion.
There's those guys in india who keep one arm raised to the point where it starts to wither away, I don't think they even believe that god asked them to do it, they just do it.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
