Mating is purely an act of self-perpetuation associated with varying degrees of self-gratification; marriage, home building, is largely a matter of self-maintenance, and it implies the evolution of society. Society itself is the aggregated structure of family units. Individuals are very temporary as planetary factors — only families are continuing agencies in social evolution. The family is the channel through which the river of culture and knowledge flows from one generation to another. The home is basically a sociologic institution. Marriage grew out of co-operation in self-maintenance and partnership in self-perpetuation, the element of self-gratification being largely incidental.

True liberty is the quest of the ages and the reward of evolutionary progress. False liberty is the subtle deception of the error of time and the evil of space. Enduring liberty is predicated on the reality of justice — intelligence, maturity, fraternity, and equity. Liberty is a self-destroying technique of cosmic existence when its motivation is unintelligent, unconditioned, and uncontrolled. True liberty is progressively related to reality and is ever regardful of social equity, cosmic fairness, universe fraternity, and divine obligations. Liberty is suicidal when divorced from material justice, intellectual fairness, social forbearance, moral duty, and spiritual values. Liberty is nonexistent apart from cosmic reality, and all personality reality is proportional to its divinity relationships Unbridled self-will and unregulated self-expression equal unmitigated selfishness, the acme of ungodliness. Liberty without the associated and ever-increasing conquest of self is a figment of egoistic mortal imagination. Self-motivated liberty is a conceptual illusion, a cruel deception.

The dog may have a will derived from nature and augmented by training, but such a power of mind is not a spiritual force, neither is it comparable to the human will, inasmuch as it is not reflective — it is not the result of discriminating higher and moral meanings or choosing spiritual and eternal values. It is the possession of such powers of spiritual discrimination and truth choosing that makes mortal man a moral being, a creature endowed with the attributes of spiritual responsibility and the potential of eternal survival.” Jesus went on to explain that it is the absence of such mental powers in the animal which makes it forever impossible for the animal world to develop language in time or to experience anything equivalent to personality survival in eternity.

The largest star in the universe, the stellar cloud Antares, is four hundred and fifty times the diameter of your sun and is sixty million times its volume.

These practices cannot be tolerated without displeasing the divine majesty. We therefore, with the sacred council’s approval, strictly forbid such practices henceforth in Christian lands.

In doing so, this thread aims to unlock the human mind and spirit and center on a deeper telling of our connection to the Universe. Monotheism : A concept that wasn't first invented by jews, Christians, nor Islam. Much older religions touched upon a singular God and a similar presentation of it. As such, how 3 Abrahamic religions claim to be the defacto religion of the one true God when there were a number of religions before it that claimed the same thing? How can those which didn't live 1000s of years before speak to those who lived closer to inception? Influence/Plagiarism : All 3 Abrahamic religions borrow from and have deep ties to older religions polytheistic, pagan, etc. Language evolves as does religion. Hebrew is not a base language. It wasn't the first language of human beings. There are tons of older languages that predate it. It evolved from various older languages as did their religion and religious text. Stories were borrowed. Concepts were borrowed. Imagery was borrowed. Temple design. Creation stories. Miracles and myths. Many stories of old were repackaged and redirected in service to a few. Spread : Most of the 3 Abrahamic religions spread under force and conquest. They did not spread due to mystical forces. If you overlay various colonial outposts with Christianity, you'll see exactly how it spread and grew to dominate portions of the world. Islam spread under conquering. Any and everyone is welcome to highlight the older civilizations and religions that have been co-opted into the 3 Abrahamic religions. I am versed deeply, so feel free to ask questions.

Generally, all religion that spread beyond the borders of the natives that create it, is spread under force. This is something to reflect on deeply when a particular religion claims to be the whole world governing religion of the human race that speaks of a singular god who only spoke to a small number of people and not the whole world, at the same time, across all languages. This is where you start to see the true nature of monotheism in way of a politically guided governing system for takeover. Before the big three began spreading through conquests, many varying religions existed which had similar themes and truths. They had similar symbols. Similar stories. Yet, they all flourished independent of each other. This gets into the pre-flood (the scientific/historic one not the one religions lied about) state of the world.

Understanding this truth and limitation, one journey's beyond themselves, any one perspective or story, and reaches into the deeps of the past, present, and future and finds the immutable and near infinite truths underlying them. It is in this 'deep understanding' that one finds 'love'. Is there a higher order to this all? Of course. This is self-evident. You believe in it. We all do. It underlies every decision and moment of our lives. This is what various religions call 'God'. You can grow in your understanding of this higher order and creation therein and in this you fall more deeply in love with and close to God. No book encapsulates this in its entirety. It is an unfolding truth. An infinite one across an infinite span of time. There are many truths present across many religions. The dogma is in the idea that, by highlighting some truths, a religious body is beholden of the infinite truth. They are not and never can be.",,Anonymous,,,US,,1496615056 128517578,128530973,2017-06-04 22:33:55,">>128529971 but faith isnt about actual truth, faith is choosing to believe in something knowing that if you live with enough people that believe in the same set of rules, you will have the base for society, civilization even.",,Anonymous,,,DE,,1496615635 128517578,128532033,2017-06-04 22:44:20,">>128527812 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithra https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mithraism Many different civilizations had many different names and conceptualizations of the same thing. Persians had their name and frame-work. Mesopotamian, Babylonians, Indo-Asians, Africans, Nords, Aryans .. All things being the same... They are the same. The forced acceptance of one name over another, one practice over another, one framework over another .... When they are invariably the same occurs when one seeks to rule over and control another beyond their land. There used to be many religions, cultures, and languages spread across the world. All were and are very similar which is why you can translate between them and find commonalities. These religions used to evolve. Gods and sub gods were renamed when greater understanding was achieved. In a more literal sense, it was the deceleration of understanding embodied in 'Gods' because our understanding does guide us and we do follow it. It is our 'god'/gods. People were free to embrace the god/god(s) they chose which is nothing more than a guiding framework. Similarly, in modern times, people's world-views are their true religion. This is why Christianity or any other religion doesn't overrule someone's long set upon self (understanding/view of the world). It only influences it. More truthfully, organized 'religion' is actually secondary to who they are because its external. This is what is typified as sin.. So, people had it right some years before the 'book was closed on religious evolution'. Only in modern religion did people arrive on the scene and state : Here.. right here and now.. this is (THE) God. This is (THE) truth. This is (THE) Way. How can this ever be the case with such an infinite degree of time and truth yet to manifest? The one thing Christianity got right is in stating 'The word' - God - Infinite 'The living word of god' - Jesus - Manifested word - creation Other religions have stated this before.",,Anonymous,,,US,,1496616260 128517578,128532423,2017-06-04 22:48:08,Did someone say Civilization thread?,,Anonymous,Those sure are some nice city state allies you have there.jpg,BfUO2G8nRUkEnWn8GflA2Q==,US,,1496616488 128517578,128533181,2017-06-04 22:55:14,">>128530973 Faith extends to many things and degrees. Like many things I have highlighted, faith is another one of those infinitely spanning concepts. I'll example this right now : > Every movement you make is predicated on having faith that gravity (an invisible) force will guide it > You have faith your currency will have value from one day to the next > You have faith that people wont run the traffic lights that tell them to stop > People have faith their closest partners will not betray them which is why they are close to them > People have faith that the people who wrote their religious books were messengers of god. > As such People have faith that if they live a life of good intention that they will be rewarded in the after-life because it is so stated by the people they have faith in ... So yes, there are many different degrees for which we have faith. Some build upon each other. People know this and thus manipulate this phenomenon of the human experience. Sociology/Psychology/Philosophy... Economics Propaganda/Politics/Marketing you name it. There are varying frameworks for it. Organized Religion is faith framework like many of the aforementioned. So, you state : > but faith isnt about actual truth Faith is a phenomenal tool. You can use it to seek out and uphold truth. You can also use it to ignore complexity, manipulate people, create stable social structures, further a cause, etc. There are various frameworks that do this. Some frameworks use it to power the journey towards truth. It all depends. > faith is choosing to believe in something knowing that if you live with enough people that believe in the same set of rules, you will have the base for society, civilization even.

You can name it. At least the ones of you who still know. Spirituality and Judaism is on a brink. Many have fallen for bad and evil. For sin. Many have already gone that way and passed that (a)way. I know many of you long for something, something more. Something more alive, that makes them and their spirit more alive again. For they feel lifeless, drained, empty. Caught in rituals and tradition but nothing else. The doors to the kingdom are open for you. Don't forget about that. This invitation is valid for more than 2000years and it will stay valid. The doors are not only open; but WIDE open. You are expected! For as much as before the end all children of Israel, even those you consider to be MIA or even KIA; Who left the tradition long ago or haven't really been part of it for much. Will be expected in the holyland; before the end comes.
