Poem, Original Sin?
Doggerel Dave said:
So we have two areas of divergent thinking here:
-You believe in the existence of an all loving etc God. I don\'t. I\'ll never get my head around that: how in infinite time and infinite space (think about it!) there could be some super being that loves you and looks after your affairs, and, presumably all other sentient beings in an infinite universe.
= You believe everyone has the right to be who they are. Do you think that the poor, the disenfranchised, the subjects of all manner of social injustice have the ?right? to be like that?

Thanks Don - you know, I almost managed to read most of your last entry. If you could just fine it down some more we could almost have a dialogue - or I might manage to grasp what you are on about. I don\'t believe it would change either of our positions, but we might at least be more understanding of each other.
Kind regards Dave

Oh Don - \'sorry I intervened. You just carry on. But you won\'t include me. Assuming you, apart from your beliefs, are comparatively harmless (you don\'t carry too many guns, do you?) I will navigate quietly around you and you won\'t score a view from me.
Kindest of regards, Dave

Poem, Original Sin?
Doggerel Dave said:
Oh please - you should realise that \"God made man in his own image\" is really an inversion of the truth, which was that man made god in his own image.
And the rest, as they say, is history.

orchidee said:
I\'m not disagreeing with any of this. I say - there has to be some sort of \'original sin\', to give a reason for the need of salvation.
Whoops - even St Paul blames it on Eve, if it is \'blame\', saying \'Eve being in transgression (sin) was the first to be deceived\'!
Would Adam have resisted the temptation if the serpent had gone to him first?!

Hey there dusk arising, Rather than our regular diatribe of who is what. How about you answer 1 question, kinda offbeat but within the realm of this Poem?
Why did the serpent go for the woman instead of the man? Of course within the Biblical Story as you so eloquently put it. Don

dusk arising said:
Blimey, u don\'t half rely on some dodgy background stories. Adam and eve story... who wrote it... how long after their death... was any kind of writing available. All questions which make the adam and eve story as ridiculous as the book of genesis. All was an idea created by men many many many years after the story was supposed to have taken place. Utter crap believed by the gullible and the brainwashed who are afraid to think freely. Probably because they have been encouraged to live in fear of god rather than celebrating the truth of god.

Poem, What I do not know.
dusk arising said:
Looking for a meaning in an old book is wasting time. It\'s full of riddles suited to an old age when un educated man was gullible enough to regard a written word as true. God did not write those words of scripture, it was a man.
Do you think god created you for you to look for answers he held outside your understanding or did
he create you to do what men do?
Did god give a man a penis so that he can claim to be holy by being celibate or did he intent it for procreation?
Which one of those is natural and gods intent?

Good words of wisdom there. You have a lot to give in your poetic output and you know it.
I much prefer your words when you do not include christian religion stuff. You\'ll take that comment in your own way but i hope you see it as a positive thing.

Poem, US Citizenship or Not!
L. B. Mek said:
its crazy what Money can do...
that is why Socrates died as a willing martyr: disclaiming the reliability in a democracy, where anyone can take the reigns... anyone, anyone: anyone!
though usually, it turns out to never be the right one - for the much downtrodden majority in our so-called: civilised society

Trump is the new deity of USA. Ye shall give him due ignorance and follow his every dictate as sheep.
Those christians among you shall know the purpose of sheep in the true chistain way.... to follow blindly no matter what a load of bollocks christianity dishes out to you.

Poem, America WTF!?
dusk arising said:
All in all, humanity is not ready for true democracy because the human frailty rules each one of us. We are not all if the intelligencia. We are humanity in all it\'s guises, as god created in his image.
A major fault could be identified in the second ammendment but there are those would rightfully argue both ways.
It is good that true americans should write your words today. Yet control will lie in the outcome, not the reasoning. Long suffering blemishes on eastern civilisation may be meeting their melting point in these years.
Today we see the true test of western democracy in USA.

ANGELA & BRIAN said:
BRIAN HERE ~ Dear Brother in Christ ~ I weep for GODS Own Country !
As far as GUNS are concerned The fault is NOT in your STARS but in yourselves that you are underlings with your STUPID *Wild West Gun Laws* ! 330 million US Citizens & 330 million Guns ~ One for every US Man Woman & Child ! In 2019 38,000 US Citizens were killed by GUN Thats more than one for every 10,000 of the population. In the UK (because GUNS are illegal) it was 100 X less. Thats a big difference considering our two Societies are very similar ! Jesus carrying a GUN is Blasphemy ! There are US Christians who own a GUN whose argument is *The only answer to a BAD MAN with a GUN is a GOOD MAN with a GUN* What America needs is A PRESIDENT who would have the BOTTLE to make GUNS ILLEGAL and that sure wont be *TRIGGER HAPPY TRUMP* WE hope & pray he wont get a SECOND TERM !
Thanks for sharing a very interesting diatribe !
Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
Love Brian & Angela & 🧡💙🤎

Poem, Fool or Wise in the USA?
ANGELA & BRIAN said:
BRIAN HERE ~ GOOD EVENING FRIEND ~ COALITIONS (2 or more Political Parties working together) can work but in my experience ~ it results in Bland Politics & compromise policies. It is useful in the time of WAR. Angela tend to vote for PERSON rather than the PARTY although politically weare more LEFT than RIGHT ! What we are praying for (& voting for) is more Committed Christians in Politics - Producing more Trust & Justice.
The only really Committed Christian elected as President of the USA in recent Years was Jimmy Carter ! He only got one Term and was considered inefective ! He replaced Ford (An accidental President) - who replaced Nixon ! Jimmy was replced by Ronnie Regan & Nancy. To some extent (especially concerning Trump !) American gets the President it Deserves ! Billy Graham was the Best President ~ You never had !
Angela & I are Students of 20th C American and we are praying that Jo Biden will be elected in November. Mike Pence (VP) is an Evangelical Christian its a pity he isn*t running
Blessing & Peace to You & Yours
Love Angela & Brian 💛💛
