Biggest Fan 988 Posted December 25, 2019 Author Share Posted December 25, 2019 1 hour ago, xoxo Craig said: What people have to question is why were the ancient greeks, romans and Egyptians so smart... then humanity all of a sudden digressed and became less intelligent? Why are there pyramids on every corner of the earth? Why are there ancient sketches of things coming from the sky? It doesn't seem plausible that every single civilisation on earth saw similar things of beings coming from the sky and teaching them knowledge and its just some "higher power" or "God". Every religious text is a version of the same story. Why? If you were amongst ancient man all those years ago with no prior knowledge, how would you describe a space ship full of aliens coming to earth? Do you know any vids on this topic I would like to know more about this topic this is so cool 🤖 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m actually a master graduated of Archeology and Religious Studies, because I love this history and to dig deeply about it. But at the end I just don’t feel like something is watching me or created something, it’s all eco system, earth is just another cog in the system and this system is much more complicated to even a higher power to create and understand it. Also our knowledge is pretty superior than any god because their knowledge is stuck in the periods where they were created, in some sense even the gods thinks that the earth is flat and for they don’t know America.. I always had this idea that’s why there must be God because the world is just so perfect 🤖 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkmanthaC 114,682 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 I am a Christian. I go to church every week. I believe in God and all those things associated. I am not a close-minded Christian. The church I go to is for ALL people, so we have people attend that are LGBTQ+ and it is wonderful! I believe God loves all people. I think there is a lot of bad rep Christians get because of the ones that are the loudest. I do not believe in forcing my beliefs on anyone. If you want to know more about what I believe you can ask me, but I do not force anyone to listen to it. I also respect those that do not believe the same as me. We can agree to disagree on things and still get along and have civil conversation. she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus 34,380 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 More like a hidden than a higher force. But yes. Human consciousness is complex. More than one state of mind is possible, and elevated states of mind transform how we perceive the world, even unite us with the world by breaking up the illusory barrier between subject and object. This should humble all of us when talking about spirituality. How many of us have actually tried to elevate our minds? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the living body has so many flaws. The creation is not flawless at all, it’s might be perfect for that ancient time but for now it’s not, we are always looking for better ways to live with this imperfection and make our loves better. perfect is such a tricky and dangerous word, there’s nothing perfect actually, even the most beautiful painting in the history of the universe has one little flaw.

LuvitLevit 639 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 While I do believe in God, someone in an earlier post said something along the lines of not believing in God as per the religious teachings. Personally, I believe in God and science. Working together. I don't necessarily see God as a he or she, so when people say that he is this or that, I kind of feel that they are down playing well the power. That means the power of God is through science rather than against. I Actually love to see what other people believe in and respect them. I grew up a Christian boy and have grown into a man who actually believes in God rather than the Fairy Tail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
