When this thread began I was going to put in jism, but I wasn't sure of the spelling and spellcheck wouldn't have anything to do with it. Prude spellcheck. :thumbdown: :grin:

Is the belief that "-ism"s are inherantly bad not a system of belief in itself?

i have a few problems with this.

eternity, by which i figure means what exists outside of time, has no feelings, because eternity is a concept not a grey-beard in the sky.

love (insofar as love is care) is an orientation, that creates joy or sadness depending on if something pleasant or painful happens to what we love.

if by love you mean acceptance, then i don't really see any affects necessarily associated with that. people can accept what they're happy about and accept what they're sad about. acceptance and affect are indepedent as far as i can see.

I don't think you are grokking what my concept of Love is.  To put it simply:

I differentiate between love and Love.

Lowercase-l love is caring, attachment, closeness, and desire to interact.  Uppercase-L Love is the sparkling Life energy which powers all the beings on this planet (and perhaps others?).

Experiencing Love does not require another person, although it can heighten the experience if you are with someone who supports you in relaxing and allowing Love to move through you.

I would be happy to go into this in much more detail in PM's, but would rather not go on and on in this thread.  :heart:

LOL Yes, definitely.  But now I am OK with others denying my belief is correct.  It works so well for me, I allowed my enthusiasm to become dogmatic.  :heart:

a valid cause I am sure.

lately I am suppressing thinking in words on the road (by stifling/mocking the near endless cadence that arises):
it might be a dangerous game.
odd smells arise,
and considerations of plastic mushroom cartoons in bunches as if replaying the cadence of speech in shape and motion.
