You mean to get into heaven ya gotta live like a pig? Or are you speaking of extreme asceticism, to cleanse the spirit, like extended fasting?
Cleansing of the Spirit would be in the correct direction, however what I meant was we must defeat our own fractionized slice of life and narrow perception that we have embedded into us as part of our human nature and existence, we are better off to not place an impenetrable barrier of our own importance around ourselves, and begin to realize that the perception and lives of others around us and our effect on them has a greater importance than meets the eye, and that this life experience we are having will have an effect on our individual futures.

For instance, we don't actually own anything in this life, the Universe simply allows things to exist within our presence/present places of being, nothing from the material realm shall be taken with us to our deaths, why live like its the all important saving grace of our lives, when at Death the illusion ends and a lifetime of supposed accumulated property is removed in a flash.

Living as if your already removed from existence, this is lowering yourself to become like water, flowing through life with in agreement with whatever outcome, accepting that you are to overcome both good and bad to reach for a higher point in the end, all things lead up to the final outcome of what you shall become, this is the silver lining behind being human beings. Being leads to becoming.....

Disconnected from reality?

I'm a Christian, I'm on a solid foundation of comprehension of reality, into great depths, it wouldn't be an inner energy coming forth from myself to have any doubts about my rationality/knowledge/wisdom, I'm a logical thought dominated typed of individual, and I've known many other intelligent people in my life whom I've learned from I won't belittle my own intellect, not that I'm in any way special or above anyone, wisdom doesn't come easy, it isn't something that you place behind you, it becomes the forefront of your being in many instances and is an invaluable portion of the pathway to preserving ones own existence after this one, the hereafter.
I asked three simple questions and you failed to address any of them. Could it be you are kind of fuzzy on what you believe, when you sit down and try to articulate it in writing? It's like a business idea, great in your head, but when you start putting it on paper in concrete form, you find the Devil is in the details. They are simple questions about belief, I won't speak of proof of the moon landings, yet. I'm not too sure I wanna waste more time, but I'm bored, that "fake virus" thing has got me locked down...

I'm sorry DIY-HP-LED, I am someone who takes the Bible literally, and with more of an old fashioned adherence to scripture, I'm not into new Age types of Christianity that may exist out there.

Didn't mean to leave you hanging on that question you asked. Thanks.

Well this pandemic is a newly evolved "life form" and it mutates and can be tracked by scientists using those mutations. Also scientists are doing pretty good in the prophecy department concerning the spread and containment of this illness. Any christian has a moral and ethical obligation to help in any way they can and that means listening to the doctors and teaching natural selection and science in schools too.

Ecclesiastes 1 : 9-11

9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
11 No one remembers the former generations,
and even those yet to come
will not be remembered
by those who follow them.

Here is what is at stake if people act like antisocial assholes after this kind of warning. Trump ignored this until it was crammed down his throat and still spouts dangerous lies while being worse than useless in this crisis.

I know this might seem funny to people who think the political section is batshit crazy....

But shouldn't this stuff be kept to the religious section. I don't want to rain on anyone's religious parade, which is why I stay out of that area of this forum. The only religious BS in here should be about how the Republicans found them very easy fodder when scamming voters.

Here's 10 scriptural verses Donald might want to read from RIU's resident padre DYI (Do Yerself In). Sheeit, they's even from the KJV, though most who believe it also listen to the KGB.

10. Ephesians 5:3-4 Let there be no sexual immorality, impurity, or greed among you. Such sins have no place among God’s people. Obscene stories, foolish talk, and coarse jokes—these are not for you.

9. Colossians 4:6 Let your conversation be gracious and attractive so that you will have the right response for everyone.

8. Titus 3:2 [Leaders] must not slander anyone and must avoid quarreling. Instead, they should be gentle and show true humility to everyone.

7. James 3:13 If you are wise and understand God’s ways, prove it by living an honorable life, doing good works with the humility that comes from wisdom.

6. Romans 12:18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.

5. Matthew 22:37-40 Jesus replied, ‘‘‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the demands of the prophets are based on these two commandments.”

4. Luke 6:31-33 [Jesus said,] “Do to others as you would like them to do to you. If you love only those who love you, why should you get credit for that? Even sinners love those who love them! And if you do good only to those who do good to you, why should you get credit? Even sinners do that much!”

3. Romans 12:21 Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.

2. Matthew 6:24 24 “No one can serve two masters. For you will hate one and love the other; you will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and be enslaved to money.”

1. Acts 26:20 [A]ll must repent of their sins and turn to God—and prove they have changed by the good things they do.*

It's the pandemic and I'm bored. This too is the intersection of belief and politics, of bullshit and reality. I might not turn them into atheists, but at least I can stop them from picking their noses, public health. :D

To fight this pandemic I'll use any weapon at hand, mace, club, gun, knife, or even religion, the deadliest of all.

There is a Flat Earth thread already
Just 2-3 months ago nobody knew a thing about this virus, suddenly it's set in stone, part of our daily lives, why? Could it be that everyone became involved the mass hysteria, linked to supposed footage and a swarm of unbelievable/shocking numbers of casualties and so on, just who exactly is on the wrong side of the fence here?

If you ignore the reality of science it would seem like magic I guess.

One day I had to look up phone numbers in this massive book, then one day I didn't, why? Things change.
