Enlightened rants...

RE: Enlightened rants...
Yes, but if the towheaded ram doesn't espy the majesty of the dawn, how then are we to conceptualise the disparity between true love and the ersatz love as betwixt the eternally separated offspring of the immortal unknowable infinite and eternity itself? One cannot possibly exist without sure and certain knowledge of the other, therefore they must both necessarily exist even at the expense of themselves. Consequently our mortal endeavours must ultimately fail to seek that which our souls yearn to find; the ultimate truth that subsists within all things that are truly consequential to the infinite mortality of every corporeal entity, thus giving verisimilitude to all logically contingent notions of serendipitous and iconoclastic profundity.

Now prove me wrong.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

What is the proof is the most repeated Question in Quran. You should see it's elaboration of that, and reflect, at the very least, before dismissing it has provided that.

The vision and perfect judgment is the truth and by what all things are created in truth through. There is no doubt, God, and there is no doubt no equal to God, and there is no doubt nothing in his high realm of existence with him but himself, sheer beauty sheer majesty sheer wisdom sheer power sheer love.

But if the proof doesn't prove what it's supposed to, or proves nothing at all, or is known to be bollocks, it's not our fault for not swallowing it without question. Remember that and we might be able to have a good discussion.

You are right. But if does prove it through clear arguments and clear robust arguments that cannot be refuted or even doubted than the problem is our fault, can we agree?

Love?

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath
Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

Night, night after day
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath
Black flowers blossom
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my...

Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath
Teardrop on the fire
Of a confession
Fearless on my breath
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

You stumble in the dark
You stumble in the dark

Fine by me, as long as we get to cross-examine your proof. Now prove those things. Because that's quite an 'if' you're carrying.

@Hammy

Actually

Love is a burnin' thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire

I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire

I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire

The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild

I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire

I fell into a burnin' ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
The ring of fire, the ring of fire
The ring of fire


Moral: lube is important.

Well, I've invited him to lunch, on my dime, numerous times. He still hasn't taken me up on my offer so I guess he doesn't want to be recognized.

Trying reciting Quran, I guarantee if you do it with humble sincerity, he will show up somehow in some way to you.


Thanks for the warning.  If that vile book truly has a hypnotic effect on the gullible, why chance it?
