O' Holy One ..
My Mind, In "Agony" ..
Trying To Reconcile ..
Are You, Or Are You Not? ..
On The One Hand, I See The "Glory" Of "Creation" ..
On The Other, I See Misery "All Around" ..
On The One Hand, I See Beauty "All Around" ..
On The Other, I See The "Paradox" Of Life ..
To Kill, To Survive ..
To Love, To Hate ..
To Make Love, and To Die ..
And Finally,
To Know, and Yet, "Realize" That We "Don't Know" ..
O' God, O' Spirit Of Creation ..
The More I "Swim" in Your "Ocean", The More I Realize How "Deep" You Are ..
Forgive Our "Audacity" For "Wanting" To Know More About "You" ..
But we Realize That The "Deeper" We Dwell On You, The More We "Realize" How "Little" We Know ..
Do Not "Punish" Us, As We Are "Children" Of "Inquiry" ..
Blessed with A Mind To Contain your "Creation" ..
However, as A Child "Crawling" Before Learning to "Walk" ..
We Will "Stumble" Many A Times Before We Can Get Up and walk ..
Walk and Walk "We Will" ..

Re: mind only, no spirit
by jamshid on Tue Nov 27, 2007 07:29 PM PSTSorry, but there is only "mind" which is made of cells and their neurochemical interactions. No spirit. Spirit is the creation of man's imagination. God is the creation of man's mind.
I have said this before in other posts, but if god is allmighty and allknowing, then why doesn't he stop a child getting raped by a brute?
Even if there is a god, he is not the god of the semitic religions. He could be like gravity oblivious to good and evil.
In my opinion, the thought that the spirit of good has touched you, is just a state of your mind. A state of neurechemical interactions and feedbacks. It is not proof of god.

by Shaer on Tue Nov 27, 2007 07:00 PM PSTOnce The Spirit Of God "Touches" Your "Heart ..
You Are "Never" The Same ..
"Intellect" Does Not "Explain" It ..
"Genius" Can Not "Comprehend" It ..
It Is "Beyond" Both ..
If There is "Indeed" A God ..
It Is A "Spirit" ..
And The "Only" Way To "Understand" It ..
Is Through "Your" Spirit ..
"No" Other ..
Re: Shaer
by jamshid on Tue Nov 27, 2007 04:58 PM PSTYour agony is because you expect good things from god, but you are getting bad things too.
Then to explain this conflict, you blame your lack of knowledge for not "understanding" god.
Why don't you just say there "may" be no god at all?
O' God, O' Spirit Of Our Imaginations...
The More I "Swim" in Your "Ocean", The More I Realize How "Unreal" You Are ..
Forgive Our "Idiocy" For "Wanting" To Know More About "You" ..
But we Realize That The "Deeper" We "Suffer", The More We "Realize" How "Impossible" Your Existence Is...
Isn't this version more accurate?
