Tell me more about Troward. i just sent you his greatest work!! you can read the entire thing online..highly suggest... I'm reading the work, I am curious about the writer. That's the part I like to delve into after the text- the man behind the text. I think you have to know a good deal about the author to appreciate his work, or know how much weight to give the text. That's probably one of my big problems with scripture, huh? The good news is that, according to the Obama administration, the rich will pay for everything. The bad news is that, according to the Obama administration, you're rich. ~P. J. O'Rourke |

It's pretty obvious that there have been human beings jacking with scripture for some time (can we all agree there?), whether you believe it's "divinely inspired" or "book of fairy tales." Quoting: D's PetWell let me ask you this question then: Since the Adversary is in control of ALL the major publishing houses......then why does the Bible continue to be the MOST printed book on the face of the planet? |

There are many ways to see things and sometimes they are all true. I think if we seek, we eventually find and as my wife reminds me daily, we are given intellect for a reason. Life is a learning experience. I believe we will continue to learn long after we have left this existence behind. To answer your other question, I think people have a tendency to preach the message that got through to them. The one that made an impact on their lives. Some of the most vocal often changed their ways out of fear. Sometimes for a really good reason. Those experiences can be enlightening, but at the same time limiting. We are each keepers of our own hearts. The fact they care enough to share is positive, but not everyone is in a position to help everyone else. One plants, another waters etc... |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1194039 Canada 12/26/2010 03:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Very few people are aware of the past history of this planet...Many refer to ancient texts, but what is really ancient, in the big scheme of things... We have all heard the musings of Atlantis...Some choose to belief it is myth, some say otherwise...For those who are on the side of Atlantis being true - This information would predate current religious text, yet there is no mention of it in the bible(s)... The biblical story of noah, could actually be based on the time of Atlantis sinking, as it is assumed, Atlantis was lost beneath the waves, and most of the earth was under water... Recent mapping of underwater anomalies, seem to indicate, structures of purposeful design... I think the bible and religious leaders in general, in our recent past (10,000 years or so) have set up a paradigm of control, using religion as it's foundation...However their version is a twisting of events, the noah and Atlantis story, is a prime example... IMO, there is a prime source, where everything sprang from... But, to use this principle and claim the prime source has spoken to certain prophets here on earth, and chosen one's to proclaim commands...They even go so far as to have a counter to god, the devil/lucifer/satan, to account for the shit they planned to pull off... No, what is going on here is we have a galaxy, which is essentially a school...Like all schools, there are bullies, cliques, and clubs trying to put forth their paradigm and control the others...The religious structure on this planet is a result of this paradigm... Religion on this planet is 'alien' in origin, a control device - One of the many tools in their arsenal... I can hear it now - Christians calling this "new age crap"...All I can say is: WAKE - UP!!! |
