if ignorance is bliss, why are people afraid of the unknown?
by zen nudist in.
fear is anticipation of pain.... no one really fears death is by death they mean complete non-existance... there is no pain possible for those who dont exist...what they fear is the unkown life that may come after death in whatever form they may find themselves...they fear the possible painful hell of religion or the judgement of others who may be waiting for them, etc.... being ignorant is often not seen as our normal position.... we never really know what is around the next bend, but often we go through each day without thinking that at all... we have a plan, a goal and a dont see any apparent road blocks, so we feel confident and forget that this is all delusions based on experiences of the past which are hardly consistant predicators of the future.

why I am GOD
by zen nudist in.
everything i know is my own minds invention/creation.. i have never known a moment when i did not exist and never shall.. i know everything there is to know in my own mental universe.. just because i cannot control what my own mind invents does not make me less god, as i did not create myself but have always existed as far as i know and so have never had any say in my true nature or how it works.. i am like brahma-- reality dreaming about itself.. i am the generator of dreams or g.o.d..

the love of money is the root of all evil? or is it?
by zen nudist in.
i have not see anyone mention this..... but it seems to me that money is the one unifying force the world over, as more and more countries become just different aspects of the corporate world world peace seems more likely than anything religion has ever been able to accomplish... war is bad for business over all which is something you dont hear with regard to drug trafficking.... the more an area is dominated by one drug dealer the more peaceful the neighborhood as he finds violence on his turf to interfer with his money.

mental viruses.... are you infected still?
by zen nudist inlike computer viruses, successful mind viruses will tend to be hard for their victims to detect.
accepting that a virus might be difficult to detect in your own mind, what tell-tale signs might you look out for?
i shall answer by imaging how a medical textbook might describe the typical symptoms of a sufferer

is the world mostly evil?
by zen nudist injws and others get their energy from a perception that the world is mostly evil and needs to be wiped out and started over.. i read a book long ago which put forth the following propostion:.
the news is mostly bad because the world is mostly good.. consider, news being the unusual, the out of the ordinary... the book went on to say if the news were mostly good.
we were really screwed....but as long as serial killers, wars, murders, and most forms of violence were shocking, it meant that the world was basically good.. overlooked in the yearly murder stats is that less than 1% commit murders... seeing that 99% are bascially average janes and joes going about their lives trying to eek out a living for their families is not very news worthy, but signficant.

what is the real reason for condemning anyone to eternal death or torment?
by zen nudist inconsider that a real all powerful god could wipe out everyones memory instead of everyone.... guess that it did not occur.
to him in noah's day?.
if everyone had to start over and could be educated with the troof, why condemn them for anything done prior to that moment?.

Is the very concept of THE TRUTH the reason cults can exist?
by zen nudist inconsidering that all availible evidence points to the understanding that everything we know is our own mental inventions, symbols our own minds have made... maps of an implied territory, representations, not substance, how can we be sure of anything that arises in our minds at all?
it seems the best we can say is that there is some stability and consistancy to some of the things we experience and some of our beliefs seems useful a lot of the time... but the truth?
what can one use as a standard for the truth?

things I do not like about xmas
by zen nudist in.
aside from the reasons jws give as it being a pagan holiday renamed..... i do not like the fact that parents think nothing of lying to their children about this mythical santa claus.
and the constant hollywood movies making anyone who exposes the gag as an evil monster...while giving children reasons to believe that santa claus really does exist after all...ignore your older friends who have been poisoned by the secular world.. i find it appalling to ever teach a child to simply expect people to give them things just because the calendar says a certain day.. i find the mindless devoution to christmas to be just as appalling as the brainwashing jws do against it... i see people in my office acting like german clocks... the clock strikes easter and the decorate the office, strikes holloween and they decorate again...strikes christmas and more decorations..... then the frets and worries over what to get who and how much to go into debt over it.. i knew one lady who spent over $300 on a child less than two and was very depressed about two weeks later when the novelty wore off and only very inexpensive things returned as the main attraction.
