Yes. It is important to not confuse the divinity of Allah with the humanity of Muhammad. Somewhere in there we have to find our own stand. — Eleonora
i asked you earlier about the subject of temple prostitiution but you didn't answer
— christian2017
You did and I did answer elaborately. It's in another thread. We were talking about multiple things and I used them in contrast to each other to illuminate them both. Here goes;
"How do you feel about ancient temple prostitiution in ancient Iraq?"
— christian2017
Wow, you really touch ground here. I believe that the Latter Day Saints recognize that they do not understand a single thing about Kabbalah as it were and in regard strictly observe connections - to follow the light in its most intricate sense. It's a posture of humility.
Temple prostitution is a further inquiry into the very matter of the same manner. Metaphorically speaking it sort of entails being a prostitute in a sacred temple. Realizing that your ways are foul and therefore submitting wholly to the temple proceedings in order to boundlessly correct yourself. Thus; conclusion - prostitution in temples are bad but the metaphor is good.
When it comes to these particular cases, I think we have to look at each individually. It raises high and sinks low. Some might have considered it an honor an really embraced the unknowable purpose, in which case they would have faced God. Others would have not, in which case it was a sin - both pertaining to the victim and the perpetrator. Mainly because we cannot ever know which really is which. Knowing this and facing God would have been the same at that time. — Eleonora
Are you aware that mohomad was a sexual predator and that in many modern predominantly muslim nations, pedophilia is legal?

I reckon in modern times it pertains to the same ideal, but by man's preconception of the times rather than the times themselves. Be and let be. Whatever holds to that standard I condone. — Eleonora
Doesn't this sound like brainwashing a person on the basis of religion for the purpose of blatant prostituion. — christian2017
Is there any sexual behavior that you would consider unethical? — christian2017

In no way shape or form based on my understanding of the Bible do i find the god of the Bible, offensive.

Let me clarify my take on the notion of your indignation, ↪Gnostic Christian Bishop. I wholeheartedly concur with Christian. Would you rather have a fleeting moment of supreme suffering and an eternity of bliss, or an eternity of wibble wobble? If the latter is your honest to God sincere answer, then I conclude our separation and deem your indignation a single one of your wibble wobbles. Happy surfing. — Eleonora

Non-consentual. When a child and God concludes adulthood in unison, consent can be given. Consent can only really be given on basis of the soul. — Eleonora

It is about spectrum. Not brain washing. Freedom goes both way. — Eleonora

Isn't that what it all comes down to in the end anyway? Sharing views is a predominant part in being conscious. I hear people with questions, I help myself to the answers to which end I know them. As we all are. The bickering isn't that fun in my view, but it sure beats drinking.
Love you,

Are you saying conclude as in beginning adult hood. — christian2017

Yes. Absolutely.

I know. See why I also love hell?

Real freedom can never be obtained without ethical indignation to mark the true remarks of unity. We have to meet each other philosophically before we can face each other as equals. This is what the world is working for in all areas. — Eleonora

The nation was conquered, it wasn't about their ethnicity. You said you've read the Bible, perhaps you should read it again. — christian2017

We can always laugh about it. I prefer it to waging war. Always be open to the minute differences. — Eleonora
A god who can cure but chooses to kill is a prick. — Gnostic Christian Bishop
Yahweh is a prick and his followers have the same homophobic and misogynous fascist character. — Gnostic Christian Bishop

Did you see the set of questions i proposed to you? Perhaps he just likes to test his creation? I'll come back to this in an hour. I've never met personally someone who claimed to come back from the grave, but to some extent i believe online testimonies. In no way shape or form based on my understanding of the Bible do i find the god of the Bible, offensive. Do you realize even the show teletubbies (are you familiar with that kid show?) has conflicts and dissapointments. I don't know 100% whether there is an afterlife, and most would make that claim or have to make that claim. — christian2017
Your god is Satan, and you don't care. — Gnostic Christian Bishop
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
