Christians: how do you sleep at night?

[professor]

Thanks Abaris. I still work at it.

Stimbo, you should know better. Nobody in Heaven has less than a perfect mind, and all the poo is left here- where it belongs.

There is a term in English- it is "Childlike" and the definition is quite nice.
I guess, here, it has to be spelled out precisely, or stuff bounces off.
Silly me.

Whateverist, you remind be of the necessity of becoming like a child to enter the Kingdom.

So heaven is full of drooling, gurgling idiots sitting in a pile of their own filth?

Now it's happened two times in a row!! Spooky.

I know, right?

The truth is neither of us knows for sure, you guess it's B.S., I believe it's true.

I guess what is BS?

You know Stimbo, in a way, we all do prophesy at times.

When the Tower of Babel was being built, it was recorded that God said, .."they are of one mind: nothing they can imagine will be impossible for them, therefore, let us........." You know the rest.

Have you ever noticed some of the phrases we hear: "Well I'll be damned" or "That killed me".
Fortunately, there is no conviction (faith) behind those words but their presence in our language indicates something.
We are inspired by the Evil One to use our words against ourselves.
Just as the use of "Jesus Christ" or "For Christ's Sake" or "Jesus" or "Christ" are used as exclamation points in conversations.
Verifying the violation of the command to not take the name of the Lord thy God in a useless way,
just as humanity violates all the rest of them.
Notice how all the Muslims honor their god and prophet. A clear indicator they are false.

Human and Strawdawg, if you could understand that among all the lies, false views of life and hocus pocus, there is a reality that you need to grasp. Flailing at the false stuff should lead to a thought: "What is real?" That thought can lead you to look relentlessly for the truth, if you do that, setting aside any personal agendas (pre-conceived dogmas)- you will find it.

I recall a counselor at a church camp who made a very similar statement. Tell me though. What do I mean when instead I say "for fucks sake"?

"Truth" sounds so much better than "B.S."
