anyone who puts that much faith in a book is missing the point IMO. I dont care if it's the bible, qur'an, or some ancient tablets..in the end this is how I feel - who cares, actaully?

Go outside and sit down under some trees, by a stream or walk through the forest. Look around you..do you not see a temple? Are you and this world not sacred? Dont you feel like you KNOW what is good and what is not good, what feels "right" and what feels "wrong"? If you cant do that than I feel deep empathy for you.

That is all the knowledge a person needs to lead a honerable life. You were not born with a book in your hands, or a peachers preaching to you..so forget all that crap.

Far too often I see people here indulging in this sort of stuff as if it is the be all end all..I dont want to offend anyone here really because I dont really judge people this way but I do at times feel like this is all just another ego game. The ego loves to find some kind of validation in ancient texts and books and religions and bla bla bla bla..get over it. This is the year 2012..we dont live 2000 years ago in the middle east.

Jesus, satan, lucifer..these are all just words you would never know a damn thing about if you did not read of them in books.

Why must it be so much more relevant what some people said thousands of years ago, than what is available to evberyone right now when they just stop all this crap and be present?

People obcessed with who floated on water, or rose from the dead or had sex with what alien beings etc to the point where they spend hours argueing about it. It's just stupid.
