i didn't say you are monk either Your Highness. i didn't change my question. i simply ask another question. im full of questions. and i love straight forward answers.
"From the last paragraph of that post, what I see is you confessing that your beliefs are limited to what you can see or have seen. Have you seen the dozens of other galaxies existing within our universe? If not, does that mean they are not there? "
i believe you have a brain. wait. i dont need to see your brain to believe it. or should i see it first before i argue with you? no. i will not believe in something written by human about something that they have never seen by their own eyes.
Wudang. not everyone can use the third eye you know. especially those that always kneel to their god asking for forgiveness and whining about their problems that they cannot solve by their own ability. and no. i am not bragging about my third eye.
In my opinion the Christians that hang Hell over people's heads, threaten about a burning eternity, and so on do not deserve to be Christians. Christians are not supposed to judge others and those that do are most often hypocrites, unfortunately nobody is perfect.
I misunderstood the question. Everyone, including the most holy of popes, may lose faith from time to time. I have seen that happen in many religions, including Taoism and Buddhism. Sometimes recovering makes them stronger, sometimes failure to do so takes them to a path more suited for them. If a pope called him a myth, I would say most likely that pope for some reason lost faith. That, or he never had faith and somehow tricked his way into being a pope.
Heaven is described in the bible as a place with streets of gold, buildings of marble, and everything we need is there. I've often told my family that a place like that would get boring so I do hope we are free to come and go as we please. Else, for a traveler like myself, paradise wouldn't be as much fun.
I've been saying I want to see this argument end for awhile now. A religious debate was not the point of this thread.
You speak in ignorance again, Loki, however I am done with you now. I prefer to keep such conversations with those who are capable of understanding basic English.
Pope Leo the X's statement was not meant as a lack of faith it was said in the 1500's when there were still major issues between Catholics and Protestants and the myth of Christ is not Jesus' existance but the myth of the Protestant Christ which I know seems confusing as they're the same person bit he used it to eplain how the church of England had rooted out the people who, that Catholics believed at that time, were not true believers in god (please note that neither the catholic church nor I feel this way today)
Andras I am sorry but I can not promise not to give advice from a catholic perspective again as it is who I am however I do promise that none of it is meant as an insult to any other religeon and I will try to remember to say so I'm future occurences but ultimately if there is a chance such advice may help I will give it. Once again sorry for the insult it was not meant in that sense
''You do know that the Satanist's ''bible'' (which was created by Anton LeVey) was created by a human also, right? All versions were created by humans...''
im not LaVeyan Satanist oh very UnluckyRaven. does any of you know my actual religion here? no right. so, stop guessing.
''Blue_Loki, my response is simply you carry yourself all knowing yet you show others differently. You criticize Ragnorok for him meeting his god yet not seeing him but I'm assuming you have not seen Enki with your physical eyes either.''
i already have the honor of seeing his physical manifestations.
even andras know that. he is there.
Ragnorok, I don't see it as a loss of faith, I see it as something that he was stating to be true at least in my eyes anyway.
In my year of being a dedicated Satanist, I've found it hard sometimes to keep the faith, but I have never given up, which is saying something for me because I have dipped in and out of religions a lot in my life time, (including those of the Right Hand Path)..because I have had plenty of evidence and proof that Enki does indeed exist, without him having to hold my hand up to those "pearly gates"..and setting me examples of how to live my life now for when I die.
You can use that example of Heaven too, but that was the most common version I pointed out there that many people tend to believe, including myself when I was a child.
As for Blue_Loki I know him personally, English is not his native language..
Am I invisible? (jk) I explained what pope Leo the X's perpose was, language worked differently back then, but we are still talking about him 'loosing faith' or 'becoming true', sorry if that sounds a little annoyed it's not meant to I just can't think how else to phrase it.
Out of interest blue_Loki what is your religeon?
I would also add that not having a mother toungue of English is not an excuse for insult, although I don't really think blue_Loki has implied much insult here if I'm honest as he has appologised when he meant it and we have all made mistakes, English is not my native language either although I will admit I am quite well practiced in the toungue, personally I find after 2-3 years in a country most people can speak the language ne'er fluent
I see a " My god can beat up your god" fight has broken out.
Blue...let me say this as nicely as I can. However seeing as I'm generally not nice, I doubt it will work out well.
For someone who belongs to a belief system that is under constant ridicule, one would think you would try to educate in a manner that is less hostile and more inviting. I have met many spiritual satanists in my day. And you can always tell the newcommers and the preteens from the rest as they seem to walk about with a chip the size of cleveland on their shoulder.
While I can understand the use of Enki and demons as a scape goat for everything can be annoying and insulting, your actions here are laughable at best. You're god is not better than anyone else's. To think so makes you no better than the fundie Christians. Yes that's right. You're comments here have reminded me of the hardcore Christians who do not and cannot step outside of their box for fear of...who knows.
Do not assume anyone here who is Christian is betraying their god. That's between them and their god. Not your concern at all.
Demons have, at some point, inhabited humans. Just as any energy being can. Do they get a bad rap? Absolutely. But no need to jump on your jaded soap box and cry about it.
Your attitude thus far has shown nothing but a child with nothing to say screaming loudly to be heard.
As to the actual post, my suggestion would be to get some Holy Water. Without telling the child what is it, throw some on them and see the reaction.
Many things can cause a child to act out. If the child has heard parents talking of possession, they may be more inclined to act out and use it as an excuse. Also, the power of suggestion can make the mind do amazing things.
If the child has an adverse reaction, seek out a preacher. I will never recommend an way to remove a negative entity in a person to anyone who is not fully capable of handling all that comes with it.
The reason for the religious aspect of my advice is because the water as well as the preacher are already filled with positive energy and confindence, as well as a backing of 1billion plus people who believe in the power as well. That's a lot of positive energy being used on your behalf whether you follow that path or not.
