Old threads of discussion I have had.

RE: Old threads of discussion I have had.
That's an interesting theory of how and why stop signs appear at intersections, at least. I think there might be a less divine explanation..but what do I know.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Exactly, and we have to perceive which way to get next at intersection. 

We are a city as well in some sense, so a city is also a good parable of God's light and the true nature, as is the tree of light, and everything points to him, the source and giver of forms.

Real life is God exists, would be better than any Hollywood script.

Mystic, you can't even recognize when people are mocking your nonsense. You're unhinged. Take a damn break, go take a walk, go see a movie. Do something else.

Unfortunately (I guess, for you? ) that's not how "real life" works.    It would be great if my wife had beer flavored nipples.

Everything speaks something about him, even a stop sign, can be a parable of him in some sense, God appears as a stop sign if we are going off track and reminds us to go on track.

In this sense, you are right. I am at a point, where I can't not see God. I see the color as something that descended from a higher plane and is a manifestation of God as well.

Everything is somehow a sign, and he even appears disgusting and as filth, to some people, because their world is upside down, where the pure word is seen as disgusting and low, and the disgusting word is seen high and great.

We live in a world of parables, everything we see are in fact, representations of something more abstract where it's derived from.

I see it. And once you see it, you know the source of the similarity of all things as well as their difference, transcends everything, yet is each thing at it's ultimate, and the collective all as well.

There is a simple term for that: confirmation bias. If everything points to your conclusion, that's when you've got to start worrying that it may be in play. Confirmation bias happens to everyone and it manifests as a feeling of certainty, but as I've said before, just play a few Mafia games to see how unreliable it can be. As I said it's something that happens to everyone but imo it's something we should not aim for and should be constantly on guard against.

In every generation there is a chosen one. She alone will stand against the vampires the demons and the forces of darkness. She is the slayer.

Smile

Every generation is a chosen one who is the King of the world that will guide any soul who seeks guidance with utmost effort. And he is the protector and vanquisher of the darkness in every soul and will protect believers by the command and permission of God.

And as for those who disbelieve, it's not it's his duty to protect them, but it does try to call them back to God, and it's not incumbent on the guide to force help.

Like Khemical rightly said, it's never complete, till I invoke the Master and King, the 12th succeeding Captain, successor of the  Leader and Prophet Mohammad.

RE: Old threads of discussion I have had.
Yeah, this place is just chock full of people who accept the institution of a monarchy and the divine right of kings.  That;s certainly going to resonate with people and bring them round to seeing the light of the face that values the love of the one who guides.

You know what I;ve always wondered..though? Why not the tenth..or the thirteenth, or the eleventysecond?
