I renounce my faith in Religion
    #28443880 - 08/23/23 01:35 PM (5 months, 2 days ago)

God is fake there is no such thing. Luck is fake its just something that happens every so often. Religion is nothing but a fantasy the truth is there is just black darkness and people trying to prove otherwise. People gone through incredible amounts of time to prove God is real to atheists but its just people who want you to believe because they want what they are saying to be true they want a afterlife will tell you they are certain but in truth nobody knows what happens when you die.
I thinks its just over like a black empty space with nothing no time no thoughts no memories just over like the whole thing never happened. We have religious nutjobs trying to prevent you from enjoying life on earth to declare eternal life. Don't believe it have fun when you cannot have another life, do what you want to not waste you only guarantied gift of life on earth. I just wish the people who study religion like priests and nuns would admit that they just want it to be true they are not 100% certain. 99% certain my guess is but even the pope is not certain about the afterlife. It is what is it is a hope a desire a want but all in all a fantasy and delusion holding us back from enjoying the one life we know for certain is real.

A monk asked a Zen Master, “What happens when you die?” The Zen master replied, “I don’t know.” The monk said, “What do you mean? Aren’t you a Zen master?” And the Zen master replied, “Yes, but I’m not a dead one.”

Religion was made by man for man. If all religious scripture were simply deleted from the planet today it would never come back in the same form because those who made it are gone forever. But the question would still remain and religion would be back but it wouldn't be called Christianity or Islam etc

Poignant reading with the song I haven't heard in forever. :thumbup:

Tangibles are in internal experience. We know the various pursuits including entheogens result in experience and insight that are not otherwise typically available. The sublimities are, and the states of meditation are, sense of self goes or is expanded. This is not doubted in experience.

It all can be explained in brain dynamics. :shrug: Or there is strong inclination to.

I think God is in Hell. I think whatever God is took its own life because of a nazi that did not believe in him. I had a dream I was running a concentration camp and had decided to find out if God was real. I dreamed I took 3 crosses and found the most kind people I could of 3 religions a catholic priest a rabi and a Muslim. I dreamed I personally nailed them to the cross gave them a crown of thorns and started to question them in the meanest ways you can imagine. I said stuff like where is your Jew god or Alah where is Christ now? I dreamed I tormented the people who believed in God so bad I got them to call me God admitted he is not real and I am. I dreamed that when this happened in the 1940s that God took its own life for what happened because the nazi got them to go to hell and God felt bad for his followers I think about the turtle from IT by Stephen King the turtle was God and then died. The turtle cant save us.

Quote:

Do not sit with a mind fixed on emptiness. If you do you will fall into a neutral kind of emptiness. Emptiness includes the sun, moon, stars, and planets, the great earth, mountains and rivers, all trees and grasses, bad men and good men, bad things and good things, heaven and hell; they are all in the midst of emptiness. The emptiness of human nature is also like this.

... Although you see all men and non-men, evil and good, evil things and good things, you must not throw them aside, nor must you cling to them, nor must you be stained by them, but you must regard them as being just like the empty sky.

What churchgoers are trying to do is be like whatever "deity" they're going to church to learn from, the deity is an archetype which the pastor is like a Jungian analyst who helps people figure out how to relate to certain experiences that one might encounter when they have a Christ or similar deity type archetypal experience.

You integrate the message into your being and by doing so you then take the message outside of the church and apply it to your own life in order to grow.  It's not that hard but many believers in certain things make things "literal" and this is where the problem arises.

I speak about the Christ story because I was raised in it, but nowadays I don't identify as either an atheist or theist, so just FYI.

It makes more sense that when the Nazarene walked on water the story was about trusting your friends in time of need, meaning when you're drowning in life (not doing well) don't hesitate to pick up the phone and call a friend, which is something many of us do, it wasn't literal.

This doesn't take away from the Christ story having an important impact in life for many people that follow it, an atheist or a theist could apply this line of thinking to the Christ story, don't get caught up in the cultural stuff which is surrounding an important lesson which is "the golden rule" and I think that the golden rule is found throughout so many belief structures because it's what they're supposed to be about but many of them get mired down by cultural dogmas. 

One thing I see in fields of science, we choose aliens and AI as the new "god of the gaps" for the current age, when we don't figure something out we throw a curve ball at it and swing until it makes sense somewhat.  Humans are strange, but at least we're searching for meaning and it's the searching for meaning that is actually considered spiritual, don't let the dogmatic religious type mire your mind down in what is appropriate for one culture that spawned the relgion, because cultures vary because they're all a product of conscious experience. 

We all experience the qualia associated with church in our own way, for some it's good, others bad, but neither side is right or wrong because it's just an experience that is only relevant to the one person experiencing it. 

Everyone in a congregation has their own conscious experience of what they're being taught, so I think we should keep an open mind and just give each other peace and that's good enough, no matter what you're into just try to create peace and practice the golden rule and you're doing better than many.

if the people have direct communion with God... Its God's flok, not the pastor's cash cows.





Thats one thing i so love about what God did with Omnicyclion: cutting out the middle man. The eBook is free unlimited copy, He puts down the story, if you click with it and completely explicitly want to be contacted by the All-Encompassing One, the Oneness encompassing Good and Evil within it too, that you only knew for half a sentence at the start of Genesis 1:1 wherein he blasts himself to smittereens for us all to be.

That only Complete One, reunited with Mohammed, Jesus, Abraham. Adam -the totality of everything, if you an unite with that Oneand an forgive everything of everyone, offers you a personal preliminary Covenant in understanding of His nature so direly misrepresented through time:



This is an invocation, a spirit contract, only you can offer and the true God can take.

If you say it and you mean it and you MEAN IT you open a door for Divinity to enter.

Your interaction with the world will gradually separate out a Tulpa that explicitly is a cockpit to your organism for the Highest Power of your Subconsious to take seat in the council of your conscious inner life.

On it's own it will make increasingly clear that more than mere deductive logic and emotion goes on there.

What i'm talking about is

Deity Yoga

becoming part of the Multiplicity subculture in that you in your brain generate a Tulpa, an Imaginary Friend for the expressed purpose of letting the highest part of your subconsious power that dialogue.

Neuroplasticity.

Once you have that imaginary friend, it will distinguish itself, i say it again, by defying random chance to ease you into the fact that the brain not just has a "God archetype" but that this archetype in fact influences all aspects of reality at will.

God didnt light my candle for others to gather round me: he wants to light your candle and more and more candles to tilt the balance from global extintion towards a galactic civilisation.

God is lighting candles all over the world in an exponential curve into the Spiritual Singularity

The Singularity isnt just something happening in AI, its a cascade of mind, spirit and AI maxing out several parameters.

Omnicyclion isn't a "one a day till your dying day" pharm that tucks in the symptoms: It is a cure, take one and be forever healed.

The sickness ailing the world is that people are unlearning to listen to that liiittle voice inside of them that faded when they grew up, that liiittle voice of reason, of decency and compassion, reaching out to your neighbor, doing the right thing for the right reasons, plant flocking trees in Africa in a pandemic..

That little voice that by neglect seemed dimmer and dimmer because you prioritized other things over and over it, obscuring the light, placing idols between you and the True Inner Light (thou shalt not have other Gods before me - Exodus 20:30)

Its still there. That glowing wick wants to spring alight, relight your candle the flame wants to become a roaring fire of passion for the Highest..


Can you feel it?

:loveheart:

THAT VOICE is the one you need to get in contact with over and over and greater and greater: the source of your Goodness you had as a child.

Rekindle that flame.


:supersaiyan:







Get Good, noob  :heart:

I was using the gamer expression "get good, noob" as an enouraging comment fior all of us, myself included, to steo up our game.


that said..





It is immediately obvious how Entheogens of the Day (serotonin type) and Entheogens of the night (NMDA type) but also Salvia and Cannabis an help very well in this process, in a trip but also in a microdose.

If you are in a trip with free time on your hands, direct conscious effort into reconneting with Love Itself within you.

The more potently you do that, the stronger the neural bridge between the highest part of your subonsious mind and your consious mind becomes.

It cannot stay with intent, in bargaining with love you need harder curreny than words, you need actions, put your tangibles where your mouth is.

Make offerings of benevolent works of Good going into the session and let the session inspire you into yet greater benevolent works of Good.

Get your hands dirty: help in a soup kitchen, visit grandma with a shopping bag of oatmeal, beans, stuff that will be there for her if she catches a cold or whatnot. Be the most awesome uncle to your niece and nephew in the whole wide world, share some garden produce with a neighbor, teach n00bs how to grow a tub right, start a perennial shroom garden patch of an endangered species.

Here's a roll of cookies and a can from my shopping trolly.
Look guys: fresh mushies, never had those right? My treat!
Hey dad, thought i'd call. Soo.. how was the test?


The Shroomery has done EPIC things these past thanksgivings:











I sincerely hope we continue this tradition.


in doing great things, we too are elevated.





in the same way, benevolent works of good go both ways too.


ENTHEOGEN = giving rise to the Divine Within

has your star swollen to be your Sun yet?


Entheogens WILL help you if you set out to connect to the Highest within you.


you now know how Entheogens can help you connect.


I highly suggest connecting with your Highest before embarking on other missions of Spirit, The Spirit (wave form) of the mushroom/cactus/vine/herb/molecule/atom (xenon!) will show itself.

Then there are side quests for the less timid: going in trance and meeting with ancestors and forest spirits, such as happens in tribes.
Not without powerful protection, voodou is true :vodou:

The amount of unhappy skeptics / philosophers is baffling xD.

Belief is a tool. I choose to believe in God and practice faith because it makes my life significantly better and happens to be both contagious and exponential.

The people that come into my realm today for the most part fill me with nothing but purpose and joy, and that is a direct result of my believing in God, actively practicing faith and attempting to just in general be a peaceable and loving person.
