Bible is contradictory to natural law
If all life gradually drifts back to source-consciousness, why should knowledge of our reality and the universe be a "forbidden fruit?"

Whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Re: Bible is contradictory to natural law
The reason some things are hidden is because this is a test.

The angels knew everything yet 1/3 of them rebelled. That had to have been extremely painful for God.

So create a being who cannot see everything, and if that being is still loyal to you even with his handicap... how sweet.

Why would it be painful for God even though he knew "the betrayal" would happen when he created them?

Or are you suggesting God is not omniscient?

I'm sure it is possible for God to choose whether or not He wishes to view the future. Even if He chose to view the future He is likely able to put it out of His mind. We humans put unpleasant things out of our minds all the time that we don't want to think about.

This is basically saying that God isn't omniscient. Which the Bible directly contradicts.

Who says he is paying attention right now to humanity? How can he always send people to the "right" place after they die?

:sun:Ardhanarishvara | You died, and death was complete freedom from suffering - bliss. But it very quickly got lonely and repetitive in bliss, so you decided to be born once more. You've been doing this forever.

Whilst I may not agree with what you say, I will defend to the death my right to disagree with you.

Re: Bible is contradictory to natural law
The teachings and instructions of the Holy Bible,
especially in its entirety which of course includes
the New Testament, is indeed at odds with some,
but not all, of the natural state of This World
AFTER THE FALL OF MAN, not before. God's creation
was turned over at the fall. Jesus Himself said
"My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the jewish people: but now my kingdom is not from hence."
The "natural" way of this world brings us all to
death, misery, and iniquity, until the Second Coming.

Anthropomorphizing God is "silly". While it's simpler to think of God as having personality and referring to the idea as "He" (or even "She", for that matter), it does contradict the definition of perfection.

To say that God has personality is to say that "He" is subjective to emotions and makes choices based on mood. This would imply that God is capable of being irrational and therefor, makes mistakes.

To me, "God" is a name that is synonymous with the idea of nature - infinite consistency. It is everything and ultimately, in control of all existence. All things in life occur "naturally".

When people say that only God can judge, it's an indirect way of saying shit happens and all you can do is control your own actions. Being bitter towards others will destroy you quicker than you can destroy another.

Anyway...

Friend if you take away our hierarchal, polarised and linear progression delusions..you will see and find...that we all are just random bipolar expression of bipolar energy and matter within an infinite bipolar recycling (process) universe. Hence the constant conditional reality of conflict between all potential interactions therein.

It isn't complex really..but sadly doesn't suit the hierarchal ego's and aspirations of self delusional bipolar humans beings..who simply want to be like the gods and devils...they create and fear...thats all.
