Quote: Is Faith a psychological disorder?
Quote: "Astrology is I think the most feeble minded of the superstitions, and sinister only in the sense that it's the most solipsistic, just as the religious fool believes that he is the object of Gods creation, that he is so loved and created for a purpose, and even supervised at all times, that's how much he counts. By the way this is what's known as modesty among Christians, I don't understand it." Christopher Hitchens '98 CSPAN

Quote:The truth come when we die, doesnt it?
Quote:I would think that you can tell me, since I sense you can do that sort of thing, tell me, is the voice, my dad trying to reach out to me, or is it someone inside my brain just doing some cleaning?
Quote:Actually, there have been dreams also, one included Jesus in it! A rather simple self analysis answered it for me, but Im sure some would severely chastise me in some fashion for that dream.
Quote:John: I also think that it is strange when people claim to have a symbiotic living within them - some call it "Jesus", others call it "the Holy Spirit", etc., They seem quite happy to have this perceived parasite within them, feeding on their thoughts and feelings, controlling their actions ~ yet most people would try to rid themselves of parasites. Druid: As you would tend to be judging those that want to know the Christ within. I must conclude that you have no inkling, as to what it is all about. How sad.
Quote:Living with such ignorance within is probably not showing itself to you, but it is loud, and clear to those that have studied what others have had to say!

Quote:Can you, personally prove that Jesus is not the Christ, or that the holy spirit does not exist. Another believer in such wouldnt hold with your analysis that the believer may be nuts!
Quote:I guess! My question would be where is it commanded that agnostics, and other skeptics need to put them down in a lock, stock, and barrel formula, while not seeing what they are about.
Quote:Its easy to say Some of my best friends are, and so on, but somehow, that doesnt ring true to even myself!
Quote:For that matter, John .I, also, have seen an un-identified flying object UFO! I suspect that it was the American space station, or just space junk, but have no way to prove it wasnt from some other planet with little green men onboard.
Quote:I knew that the visit was from Jesus, because he looked just like the picture that is printed on the cover of my Bible.
Quote:I am usually awake, drowsy, but awake whenever a voice speaks to me. It is startling when it occurs for it is, as if I am being called, by someone that is far away from me, or deceased.
Quote:I just consider it normal brain activity, but who knows?
Quote:I think "psychological disorder" is pretty much dependent on whether or not it disrupts your life and interferes with how you function in an observable reality.
Quote:There is also, asleep, and awake we all know that!
Quote:I hope that I dont sound to silly, and all that jazz, but I do believe in some other bank, I have to. Im getting really old, and have always believed in one . ..
