I decided to write this because I hate repeating myself on these these threads. It will be in my signature; so when the issue comes up, I will just point down.
1. My RF Purpose
2. Assumptions and Exceptions
4. Discriptions (My long posts)
5. And all that Jazz
1. My RF Purpose
My whole purpose of being on this site is to gain understanding of multiple religious thought. I dont care to prove anyone right or wrong because I there is no sense of right or wrong answers in regards to religion. We believe and practice because that is what we know is true in our hearts and in our actions.
Yes, I ask questions that may seem contrary to my beliefs; so, this is why I want to mention:
2. Assumptions
I love hypothetical questions. It let's people who want to participate think outside of the box (and out of mine) to challenge what we believe, why we believe, and how.
Understanding other peoples spiritual path is not a question-answer for mat. It's not:
Does god exist and prove it?
Its: What brought you to your belief in god? How did you come to this belief? Do you apply this to your life...if so, tell me about it and we can share our experiences together.
Assumptions: Just because I ask about your faith in this manner, does not mean I and others want to convert to your faith. It doesn't mean we are questioning who we are because we are asking you the same.
If you think this is not true above, ask first.
Learn the difference between facts and beliefs (all of you of all faiths and lack thereof).
I dont believe god exist. (Okay. Fine statement). I do believe in god. (Wait. That's a contradiction).
Assumption: Dont assume somehow I (and many others) are confused about our faith.
Ask for clarification.
I know god is not an anamorphic being. I also know he isnt a supreme intelligence. I even more so know he is not complex. I also know he is not a he.
God is life.
3. My Long Posts
There are three reasons I write long posts.
a. Cause I type fast on this tiny keyboard and dont have time to back track
b. Its hard to put my points together (which are usually two or three only) without concentration and research. I have no time to make a research paper
c. Medically, its hard to articulate language to begin with.
My point: I rather you read my full post in sections with as much time as you need. Quote me when you are making assumption or asking for clarification (much rather prefered). Read my posts.
I read all posts. Exceptions are those with long articles and three post scriptures with no commentary and point.
4. All that Jazz
My purpose: To understand
Assumptions: Ask for clarification
Long post: Read above
Thanks guys.
