Where is the world headed???

JuggalaJ · Sep 7, 2008

I believe that most of mankind is to caught up in what is going to happen tommorow instead of living in today, We should all just live our life they way we feel, cause if you stand back you realize life is over in a blink of an eye, Just live and forget about where ther world is headed, and if the "shit hits the fan" so be it, I lived how i want to live while i had the chance.

"I'm the one who's got to die, when it's time for me to die, So i'm gonna live my life the way i want to" -Jimi Hendrix

when I first started smoking weed I was so into that thought of life and it gave me anxiety and paranoia, and I agree with you but I have avoided the thoughts because the truth is scary and nobody around me gets into it like me so I just gave up. It was depressing.

it's just humans. i live my life kinda half and half, aware and unaware to keep myself sane while trying to maintain my "CARBON FOOTPRINT". not for the sake of status or after life. just for myself.............................

Who'd want to live forever anyway?

Though it might be interesting to be able to see where humanity is 200 years from now, and 2,000 years from now, and 20,000 years from now.

I'm Deist, though I'm rather convinced that I'm going to Hell, just on general principle, I'm reasonably sure that they don't let independent thinkers into Heaven, I might get a wild hair up my ass and accuse God of being an idiot.

So what makes a religion credible? The fact that you believe it? :shock:

"You must be a wannabee or else it makes no logical connection"

I see this as rather presumptuous, no? is that according to your definition of wannabe? wannabe what-who-where? or his or some wannabe standard? and the logical connection - logical for who? logic is but a perspective? Or am I misinterpreting your text?

throughout history science has debunked religious theories that were thought to be set in stone. as technology gets better we debunk more religous thoerys.

Examples? The three main world religions are thousands of years old and still strong in spite of scientific advancements. What religions have been debunked and how?

beliefs are comprised of energy and are not factual. they are not true nor false. They are a perspective.

Behold our universe and the many dimensions within. It's foolish to claim that nothing exists where your eyes cannot see.

I'm not fond of religion. I see that religions of today have shackled the masses they control with fear, this is not right. They lie and cheat and scam, surely God does not condone this behavior. The corruption of all churches is a sign of the last days.

The main religions' scriptures have common ground though. But beware of the severely manipulated, mistranslated, and mass-produced books of these days. The real scriptures all point to something, time for you to research. :blsmoke:

Find the oldest possible books that are translated in English. If you can read the languages these books were originally written in, then you're golden. ;-)

My problem with religion is that they have allowed themselves to be muzzled through tax benefits (Non Profit Status) that prevent them from addressing politics. The churches are afraid that they will have to pay taxes like the rest of us if they dare criticize the immorality of the government, and this doesn't just make them dishonest and hypocritical to the beliefs that they state they preach, but it makes them cowards.

Exactly. True followers of God would stand against this. Most churches will never speak of the government in a bad way, ever. They will say everything about how horrible the economy is, but never speak against the loving government.

Jesus himself would be saying "WTF ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING?!"

Try checking this book out at the library. A wonderful collection of religion based arguments, both for and against, by some of the greatest thinkers, and schools of thought, in history. No bias, just the documentation of varied opinions of great minds.

You can scroll through the book on Amazon...
