(like, how can someone's soul be so beautiful? e.g wagner and beethoven, beethoven wen't DEAF when he composed some of his BEST PIECES! and guess what? they sound like the angels themselves came down to guide his pen as he was composing them,
the universe was like "but beethoven! You're deaf! You can't hear anything! Stop composing, it's against the rules! And he was like, naw, later god!".
then there are the many requiems and concerts and... these are the peaks of civilization from before the wars, before we commited collective cultural suicide and killed ourselves.
you can hear and see it in the music, and man, there is something NOBLE, something, that is just MISSING today. from that time.
I don't care which role model you take as your own, there is something, far higher, far grander, within you, untapped as of yet, which is waiting to be unleashed, and this is it, to which we all reffer when we stop blaspheming and disbelieving, when we stop profaning the name of those great individuals who came here to really DO something, and were serious.
george washington was also one of these figures.
i will repeat again: the only reason people mock and make posts like this is because they actually WANT TO see, but they can't and or are too lazy, so they ask others, show me, please, show me something to believe in, by mocking, and poking around, they wanna check and see, what is real?
you have to believe it to see it, and you have to experience it for yourself.
lemme just say, you can remove all your prejudices by rigorous mental exercise (logic chopping), but once you are finished with "philosophy" (in its degraded form now), that is where spirituality and "seeing" begins. that is where the walk and sight of faith, starts.
call it what you will, that is where "more than just life..." starts.
Cheers!

Well, anyway...

here's a good video
and what SECULARISTS had to say about jesus,
or rather, the story of jesus, i particularly liked what einstein had to say about jesus.

dennoch habe ich zu sagen
das die art und weise in der unser humor sich hier im westen vorran treibt
immer wieder, mit der art von "vitriol" und "bitterness" darauf hinweisst,
das leute wirklich "nicht's zu verlieren haben" weil sie an "nichts" glauben,
es zeigt sich alles im "humor", in der art und weise, wie andere sachen ANGREIFEN.
you see, we do everything with anger, except for listening to it,
and we should listen to it, because when people are angry, they say what they have been truly thinking all along, because they stop censoring themselves so much.
why do i bother saying this? because it is clear from your and many other people's replies, they think it's all a big joke, all just meaningless crap. And the truth comes out on the net, because that's where some people are big enough to say what they feel, because of the wonderful "gift" of anonymity. So you post your videos, mocking things, but you don't see, do you? There is wonderful truth behind and in the word of shakespeare, but they are only a mirror of the universal wisdom, also contained in the bible. And as much as you mock things, that is as desperate as you yourself are for some kind of truth and sincere emotion/ direction.
it's like c.g jung said: A man can stand anything at all, except for a meaningless existence.
it's tragic that you find a meaningful and moving situation nothing but superficially comic, and indulge yourself with borderline retarded, unfunny "comics". Instead of just investigating, for yourself.
it's all bullshit you might think, except for that it's not, but you have to first be willing to admit that it MIGHT be, and then pick it apart, and just LOOK
and
SEE
Why would anyone even bother attacking something, trolling something,
if they didn't care about it?
it's like i've thought about satan all this time, "god is just satan, but, he's trolling"
i mean "satan is god, trolling": if god didn't care about us, he wouldn't TEST us.
and how do we know his minion/ agent, by which he test us, isn't our most supreme ally and champion of character, by giving us the opportunity to prove who we really are?
(substitute satan for liar/accuser/false witness/ devil's advocate) and god for "noble minded person". if you just have to go groping around the dark damp cave of physicality, and can only believe what your oh so limited sense organs here feed back and tell you.
let me say, you cannot SEE, SMELLS, can you?
(ok, maybe you can with supremely complex graphing machines and or weird vision goggles, but that's kinda beside the point)
but you can FEEL evil, can't you?
because you can measure it's effects.
how?
in the same way, will you attain faith, by sincere searching.
this is what i meant before by "the end of logic, and the beginning of faith"
on the level of historicity, things might not hold up,
where jesus, buddha, krishna, prometheus, icarus, zoroaster,
pythagoras, mohammed, moses, abraham and so on, are concerned,
but, BUT, on the level of myth, genuflection, and inward significance, clearly it does hold great sway over many millions of people, and so, should at least be attempted to be understood, if not, respected.
I mean, at the very FUCKING LEAST, from a secularists perspective, you have to "do the numbers" and see how things add up. and that's if you're totally shut off to the other possibilities, that's if you insist on materialism (existence is a big accident; consciousness is a disease).
But the thing is, most people who mock others, don't really believe anything at all themselves, they just wanna point out, it's all bullshit, whatever anyone else says, and for that to be acknowledged, eh? Well here's me saying: Yes, yes there is great fakery that goes on, but if you dig deep WITHIN YOURSELF, you can find truth. And that's what everyone has told us to do. so do it.
that's all for someone who really doesn't believe at all, and won't permit the potential reality of supernatural claims being true (which i do, partly because i cannot deny, i have witnessed them myself, healing taking place, and a reversal of fortune, as well as prayers being answered and extreme incidences of synchronicity).
And ok, I can't tell you what exactly happens, but I believe,
And I can't tell you what exactly I believe in,
Except for that I believe, something... good, can happen, if we would just trust, enough

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path. Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without.
The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart.

I don't know if Jesus was real but the notion of Jesus is very real. The most real thing we have ever known.
However as time has passed by and technology has become our new God the belief in the notion of Jesus has dwindled.
I have created the graph below to explain my point visually.
Is it possible the powers that be over a long period of time have given us something tangable to believe in so that we might stop believing in the truth.?
I don't know. It would be hard for anyone to claim to know.
Just my thoughts..
