RE: The words of life speak no lies.

in #philosophy7 years ago (edited)

I read your previous post, and was part of the comment section that you accused of being all lies. I could tell you that I'm not part of a "cult", that I don't follow a "religion" or "supernaturalism", but it seems that they'd just be words to you. Based on what you've written you would probably accuse me of lying to you. I could tell you about the experiences in my life that led me to my beliefs about life after death, how it's possible for us to exist in other places than here, but those would probably just be words to you too.

I weep at the thought of what pain you must have endured to reach the level of sadness and anger that you write about. I pray that someday you can experience a level of happiness and joy that may give you the opportunity to take a second look at what you appear to believe is the inevitable outcome to this life.

I could quote scripture to you as I've seen some do on various posts, but I believe that scripture is a personal experience between the person reading it and God. What I get from one piece of scripture, ten other people may get ten different things. Who am I to tell another what they should think about something written two thousand years ago?

I believe that this life is being used to forge us into something greater than our current selves. What that is, and to what purpose? I have no idea and cannot begin to speculate. But what I believe, is mine and belongs to me. What you believe, is yours and belongs to you. Being able to share, even if those beliefs are at odds, are what allow us as human beings to be able to have opportunities to grow and connect in ways we never could have imagined.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. When reading your post, it feels very personal, and for most, sharing something so personal is difficult.

Edit: grammar
