This is what happens when you live a life devoted to the lies and deception of religion , totaly sickening , http://uk.news.yahoo.com/churches-told-dying-patients-were-cured-034935993.html
sorry bro, most religions dont behave like christians and would appreciate if you didnt compare them to christianity. you are somewhat right that most MONOTHIESTIC religions (the big 3) advocate miracles instead of human labor. christianity has a nice mascot in a jewish miracle worker who blesses water and whatnot. whatnot meaning a plethora of super powers,


too sad the one super power he doesn't have is mind control, leave that to his followers.

Ya well, I'm personally looking for something we can compare ourselves to each other. And one thing is I would say that there is a God. Hey there's one thing to bring us all together possibly. Not neccesarily to look for mascots and leaders of religion, to bless the water, but how about to bless the skies and praise the Creator? Meaning not caring of material shit even though, hey I like my Nike's too, and damit I know I need to drink water, but dang I thank God sometimes deep down in my heart.

But, to presume miracles to reinforce your belief is wrong I'd like to propose. Like, for instance, praying for the messiah. See, to me, even though the notion is outstanding, personally in my interpretation of the coming of the messiah, is that it is one of giving up, calling it quits. Saying I can't do it anymore, I need a miracle. I need a savior. To me, that's wrong as a miracle itself wanting to happen by me because it's saying I'm done, it's all over. I need a messiah? To the true grit of what I think are my natural instincts I would say the survivalist mentality does kick in when you get beaten down by life. And it's kick ass time by that point. I've heard that God like's and looks forward to hear prayers for the messiah, and prayers in general of course, to know that we are not quite perfect, and need some acknowledgement that you are being heard in some areas. Some get a response, some get more than they can handle.

I believe in opposition to a miracle is, hard work and labor. I think that is good and fine right? Even in a commandment: "You will work." That is a commandment I believe. There's only like 300 or more of them, or 10 of them, I guess it depends on who you ask har har. I think I broke alot of 'em. I hate to work, but I gotta make a living too, and pass it on. Not too many people I'd say, ummm love their occupation, but if they do, hah, that would be a miracle.

I just haveta take piss tests to work and I hate that stuff haha.

[FONT=&quot]Don’t believe in some vague truism. Search for truth. Seek it out. But don’t hold on to any belief or concept. You have only gained these beliefs based on everyone you have ever had contact with. This is a sign of weakness of the mind. It is lethargy; it is a lack of caring. It is an injurious way to save yourself from the work of seeing your self, from the work of consciously observing everything you think, say and do. Blind belief is an escape from sadhan, from the effort for self-realization. In a sense it is nothing short of suicide because once one falls into this culvert one becomes incapable of climbing the peak of truth. These paths lead you in two opposite directions. One is the ditch you fall into; the other, the lofty summit you have to climb. Belief in organized religion is an easy thing because a man is not required to do anything. In that sense, knowledge is not so easy. Knowledge is the complete transformation of life. Belief is the outer apparel; knowledge, the inner revolution. Rather than allowing you to reach the peak of atonement towards which your spirit is striving, a simple belief can easily throw you back into the slumber of blind faith. Spiritual seeking is not faith but unfortunately, religions are. What is spirituality to me does not coincide with what the concepts of the world’s religions appear to be. On that score Karl Marx was right to brand religions as opiates but profoundly wrong to say so about real spirituality! You have been told to have faith in the shastras, faith in the words of God, faith in the teachers. I do not say so at all. I say: have faith in yourself. It is only by knowing your self that you will be able to know what the shastras have said, what god has said... what their true meanings are. For one who has no faith in himself, following any other belief will be in vain.

I say yet again, do not believe in anything but yourself... for when you do, you will be forced to change your thoughts, words and actions. To become truly responsible for everything you think, say or do. You will become the emanation of all that is good, and true peace and happiness will overflow from your cup.

First of all I'm not certain I'm using the term correctly but isn't it ironic that you're telling people to follow your beliefs right after telling them that they only pick up their beliefs from the people they have had contact with and that it is a sign of a weak mind to do so...

and secondly following an organized religion is not truthfully such an easy thing if you are a true believer and follow what the religion actually says to do... that shit is not easy, it takes a heck of a lot of effort and perseverance to even get it half right... You are required to do a lot if you have true faith...

man that is stupid... i am guessing you think all of mankind has a weak mind except for yourself since you are a higher level of thinker, lol!!!!!

yeah, of course, because after you belief in it, they insert the cable to the back of your head like in the matrix:clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:
