Are your parents/grandparents/great grandparents christian/believe in God?

My moms is a Christian. My pops is a Rasta/believes in traditional African spiritual faith systems. I'm agnostic and a part time demon :manny:

My pops was the first one to ever tell me the shyt that was written in the Bible was stolen from various African wisdom and we packaged for white people. He was the first one to tell me stop worshiping a white God when I was in my Christian phase. When I would bring up the Bible to him, he'd tell me I haven't found God yet, because if I did I'd realize God was already inside of me. At the time it made no fukking sense and I thought the nikka was crazy, but now I'm starting to get it.

On another note, I've decided to read and learn more about African spiritual systems. I started reading the Kybalion yesterday, deep book. Thos aka Hermes was a deep cat man. The 5th Hermetic principle had me like :ohhh: yesterday:

Hermetic Principle V: The Principle of Rhythm said:
This Principle embodies the truth that in everything there is manifested a measured motion, to and fro; a flow and inflow; a swing backward and forward; a pendulum-like movement; a tide-like ebb and flow; a high-tide and low-tide; between the two poles which exist in accordance with the Principle of Polarity described a moment ago.

There is always an action and a reaction; an advance and a retreat; a rising and a sinking. This is in the affairs of the Universe, suns, worlds, men, animals, mind, energy, and matter. This law is manifest in the creation and destruction of worlds; in the rise and fall of nations; in the life of all things; and finally in the mental states of Man (and it is with this latter that the Hermetists find the understanding of the Principle most important).

The Hermetists have grasped this Principle, finding its universal application, and have also discovered certain means to overcome its effects in themselves by the use of the appropriate formulas and methods. They apply the Mental Law of Neutralization. They cannot annul the Principle, or cause it to cease its operation, but they have learned how to escape its effects upon themselves to a certain degree depending upon the Mastery of the Principle. They have learned how to use it, instead of being used by it.

In this and similar methods, consist the Art of the Hermetists. The Master of Hermetics polarizes himself at the point at which he desires to rest, and then neutralizes the Rhythmic swing of the pendulum which would tend to carry him to the other pole.
All individuals who have attained any degree of Self-Mastery do this to a certain degree, more or less unconsciously, but the Master does this consciously, and by the use of his Will, and attains a degree of Poise and Mental Firmness almost impossible of belief on the part of the masses who are swung backward and forward like a pendulum.

This Principle and that of Polarity have been closely studied by the Hermetists, and the methods of counteracting, neutralizing, and using them form an important part of the Hermetic Mental Alchemy.

But like I keep telling you cats, don't pay me no mind, I'm just another lost nikka.

The bacteria that lead to your necrosis and decomposition use your biological substrates as energy and then continue to break things down.

What isn't eaten just wastes away and breaks down over time.

Everything is reused. Nothing disappears.

Exactly, and without air/nitrogen your body wont decompose at all. Your atoms and molecules are just getting whisked away, into the air, wow. Praise him, God. :lawd: Be careful, friend, you never know where you'll get whisked away too.

Take some fukking biology or chemistry courses man.

What the fukk is wrong with you?

You don't even deserve to be in charge of lighting a stove.

Are you fukking trolling right now? :beli:


Your body starts decomposing essentially after 20 minutes of no respiration. Some of your organs start dying within 5 minutes if they don't have fresh oxygen.

I just stand there respectfully. My girl gives them the :mjpls: face if they ask her about God though...have a hard time trying to get her to see she shouldn't be disrespectful about it, but she has a hard time not seeing religious people as idiots.

@Napoleon

I am an atheist.

Your conception of religion is very naive.

I don't care.

I only care what can be demonstrated to be true.

If religious people just admitted that they have a book they KINDA like to follow then that'd be different.

When they assert that its true, we have a problem.

And miss me with that "you don't understand eastern religion" BS.

Praying to "spirits" and having ancestor "worship" and making "offerings" is just as bullshyt as everything else.

No need to spare feelings because people can't handle the reality on their own.

:comeon:
This has nothing to do with eastern religions, spirits or whatever else. I am completely aware of what I'm implying when I say I am an atheist

And it's not about sparing feelings. You appeal to rationality in your attempts to prove them wrong yet all you're doing is mistaking the fact that human beings are capable of comprehending logic for the notion that the human brain is always functionally logical which is clearly untrue and not just in regards to religion.

This guy explains it better than I do.

Belief and nonbelief are two giant planets, the orbits of which don't touch. Everything about Christianity can be justified within the context of Christian belief. That is, if you accept its terms. Once you do, your belief starts modifying the data (in ways that are themselves defensible, see?), until eventually the data begin to reinforce belief. The precise moment of illogic can never be isolated and may not exist. Like holding a magnifying glass at arm's length and bringing it toward your eye: Things are upside down, they're upside down, they're right side up. What lay between? If there was something, it passed too quickly to be observed. This is why you can never reason true Christians out of the faith. It's not, as the adage has it, because they were never reasoned into it—many were—it's that faith is a logical door which locks behind you. What looks like a line of thought is steadily warping into a circle, one that closes with you inside.
