What do you want to banish from the planet?

DJs! Trying to listen to music and they keep rattling on arrogantly. And we won't mention that partifular DJ!!!! Shriek.

The only one I liked was John Peel, bring back John Peel. Oh and Kenny Everiit for the comedy factor.although I never listened to him on the radio. John was my boy!

    All religions have their share of extremists and radicals. The Colonial era when Christians rampaged across the third world has its own history that is as bad, or even worse, tha what is happening right now. The KKK are another example of religious evil. Burma has its own version of hatred being spewed by Buddhists whose philosophy is based on non violence, ironically.

    One has to get to the root of the cause to understand its present effects. Nothing happens for no reason. Now that the damage has been done we are faced with an inextricable situation on the ground. How we will be able to bring back peace and tranquility is left to be seen. One cannot simply go about wiping out a whole race or religion on the planet.

      no indeed Faz. If something really significantly good does not happy soon we shall be left with 100% desert and 100% dead sea. 

      What am I saying! We will be 100% gone too.

      well as it says in the bible ,we are in the last days ,I know this has been said so many times before ,but,the Lord`s timescale is so different to that of ours,so wehere as we might say ina number of years ,we could well be so far out it is unbelieveable.

      You are so right Tis,the Lord did turn Adam and Eve out of his Garden because of the way Eve talked Adam into disobedience,saying all his descendants would suffer too,also saying of how all women would bear their children in terrible pain,as we ladies know this too be true .

      And as said ,we (all of us mankind ,and womenkind too ) are the ones who have abused that free will that was so lovingly given to us ,so it is that we are also the ones responsible  for all the Greed ,wars, dishonesty,disharmony,and disloyalty,and illnesses too.We have all got to bear our sufferings just as our Lord had to do when on our earth plane .

      I hate to agree with George, in this ,but he is right in my opinion it will get worse before it gets better,it already is doing .

      so here to help make it a bit better for us at the moment are some hugs

      even white lies diffitcult to say ,i have told white lies but it was to save arguments or someone eles feelings

      ,but it does not come easy

      i dont get violence and peoples obsession with it 

      i.e in games and vids 

      it is hell living here at the moment 

      everything about the world is wrong 

      life is os short 

      why do some people and nations want to make it shorter and have more suffering in it 

      i believe lies will out no matter what so best not to tell them 

      in the first place.  my gran told me this rhyme when i was a kid 

      oh what a tangled web we weave 

      when first we practise to deseve .

      no truer words

      Oh what a tangled web we weave

      When first we practice to deceive ..

      I was taught that too Tis..

      You say you are not perfect Tis, none of us are perfect ,some of do try to be good decent adults ,and good decent teenagers too.

      Sadly though there are those we know of only too well who are the entire opposite,and do their utmost to bring about tragedies.

      And more the the point they succeed .

      This is what is making our world they way it is right here and right now.

      Millyimp, it does seem that people find it easy to be bed and difficultt to be good. Could be that is why the world is in a mess.

      George,

      LOL I think you mean people find it easy to be BAD and not to be bed.

      But yes there are indeed some people who seem to find it easy to be bad,and find it hard to be good.So I would say yes in my opinion this is indeed the reason our world is in this state it is in today

      Dear Tiswas, you are really much better suited to the world to come. Walking through this world to get there is like wading through treakle laced with nettle stings.
    • Posted

      Hello to George and to Tis,

      It is at times as you say George walking through treacle laced with nettle stings.The times we think all is going well for us ,seems to be quite simply pulled away from under our feet leaving us with (it seems ) no hope .

      Yet how many times do we simply look up skywards ,then say out loud ,Dear God... or please God give me strength ... surely if people who say they are an aetheist ,and have no belief in their being aGod ,why then do they ask him for his help? A question I often ponder on

         ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

      i believe in a all mighty power .A GOD .

      i dont believe in the  bible as this was written by man 

      and put together by man from scripts found .

      thats not to say i dont believe in goodness and kindness peace and understanding,  and not to say that i wouldnt give anything to live in a more peaceful caring world ..

      i feel the interpataions given by man on relgion is the cause of so many problems we have to day ..and the casue of many wars . 

      theres certain things we need to teach our children 

      kindness ,tolerance , undrstanding

      respect for others and for them selfs and , boundries, 

      and consequences .

      this way will raise better people and a more stable socity .

      we should stop teaching children that sex under age is ok if you protect yourself , it isnt its ilegal thats why its called underage , we should teach kids to have respect for them self .

      Hello Dear Tis,

      I Read in one of your postings you are a spiritualist .Yet you say you don`t believe in God,this is your own perogative ,which I respect.

      However I was a spiritualist form many years till last year.

      Something happened which took me right back to my roots and where my beliefs are now.

      But when I was a spiritualist ,I was also a healer,wnet to their chirch 3/4 times per week ,both fpor the services ,and also to do the healing.

      We were always taught that God is the Almighty .with his son Jesus his son.

      This was the beliefs of the spiritualist churches then ,and still is today.

      Therefore I don`t quite follow how you arrived at the belief of there not being a God Almighty .

      Please do not think for one second I am being disrespectfull to you and your beliefs,I am just asking how you came about them seeing you are a spiritualist,and I know what they are taught .

      Thank you Millyimp,

      Tiswas has heard me on this already so no surprises for her.

      There came a day wjen I got the surprise of my life My cynical church going blown away and I had not even noticed. I stopped short half way acress our large bedroom absolutely astonished. I recognised for the first time that I belived it all. That is , I believed all that the Bible said about the Lord Jesus.

      I have found that journey of discovery to be increasingly unpopular with denominational churches. I do find that I have many ideas in common with thoughtful people.

      Hello Dear George,

      Many thanks for your reply ,and for your information,it has to be said though ,although some are brainwashed when they are taken into a Cult.

      However other than that we find it out in our own time and in our own way,something occurs ,that makes us stand up and take notice.

      To Faz,all I can say ,is that like all others you have the right to your views and opinions.

      Yes of course the Bible was writtne by man many many years ago. How though did they learn how to right  in the first place,how then were those who are able to translate able to translate .

      Why do you (maybe) and so many others cry out  when in trouble.

      God help me

      Lord help me

      ,if you and others believe there is no God,who are you calling out to in yur hour of need .

      You know people say we came from Monkeys etc.

      If that is the case and I very much doubt it ,who put the monkeys on the earth in the first plce,they didnt just materialise?

      Sorry with my Aspergers i dont explain things well 

      i suppose what i mean is i dont belive in theGod that is the head of churches  .and religeon 

      i was brought up surrounded by catholics although not a practising catholic 

      although i was baptised the cruelty and the greed of catholic church apores me just because its in the past does not mean it should be forgottten and latin mass said in latIn right into the 70s was just another way of control . 

      i nice catholic women that i knew very well was told by her priest that she wet the bed because she was hiding a guilty sexul secrat and that it was gods punishment .  wheather she was or not i dont know but it was wrong to say that to her as it was proberly something medical .

      and like i said the christiians are afraid of everything to do with spritulisum you only have to mention it  to them  and they start speaking in tongues 

      and as for jeovah witness ,hypnoses is the way the devil gets to you you shouldnt do it

      , and animals dont have souls . utter rubbish utter control by fear . no thanks .i belive that there is an almighty  God by any other name . but i dont reqonise him belonging to any church ,or faith.

      just to the earth and all who want to live in peace .

      but like you i do not tell others what they must believe its they right to believe in  what they wish . as long as its not hatred and killing .or hurting others in any other way .smile i think the lovely John lennon was right give peace a chance 

    • Posted

      Hello Dear Tis,

      Youi explain yourself well,considering your ailment .I don`t believe we have to go to church inj order to believe in God. I agree with you that man was absolutely in the wrong to say what he did to that lady .It could be as you say something medical that she has.

      As for animals my belief is that all living things do have a soul/spirit.they do all feel pain wen it is inflicted upon them.or when ill.

      Like you Tis ,I do not believe God wants us to belong to any church, he simply wants us to believe in him and to keep the faith. He wants us to have a peaceful earth ,to have love ,peace ,and to care for one another ,he does notwant this palnetto be as it is.

      You may well question then why does he allow it to continue,asI said we are all given free will to do either good or evil,some choose good while others choose evil sadly .

      And yes John Lennon had the right idea bless him,and like Jesus who died on the cross for us ,John Lennon was also persecuted too,but he carried on.

      About 14 hours before this message you wrote for my entertainment 

      "Many thanks for your reply ,and for your information,it has to be said though ,although some are brainwashed when they are taken into a Cult.

      However other than that we find it out in our own time and in our own way,something occurs ,that makes us stand up and take notice."

      I of course took the first sentence to apply to an addle brained simpleton such as my unworthy self. By contra distinction you graciously  indicated the great superiority and discrimination of your most worthy and exalted Impishness.. 

      I only submitted  in the humblest of terms the difficulties I might have in entering into a cult of unusual meanness in numbers and the vanishingly small intellectual ability to work the degree of skill necessary to launder the the brains if any such there be, clear of any presupositions that might be at varience with the intentions and impositions of the cult if so be it there is a cult exercising the prescriptions of which you have so graciously demeaned yourself so far as to describe in the aforesaid gracious terms.

      Hi Tis, feeling a bit better now and able to contribute. razz But what a dark time I've been through, glad of the light at the end of the tunnel.

      And are soul and spirit the same phenomenon?

      I was looking after Brandy, my mum's dog and she was sitting where you sat. I was sitting facing the window and I was praying. For some unknown reason I asked Jesus to reveal himself and Brandy suddenly looked up and stared at the door at around the height a human's head would be if they were standing with such an intent gaze and for quite a while!

      Therefore I think that animals have souls if they're able to connect with and see into the spiritual realm, or heaven better than we can?

    • Posted

      oh god georgia i believe that animals have souls like isaid in my reply to the post .

      but jeovah witness do not . one i knew had a small holding and some ponies one pony died and the just set fire to it and thought it was funny when it exploded ,well if that is religion id rather be of a  non f aith

      animals feel pain they sense your mood iv only got to start crying and little scrufffy is on my lap ,and yes i believe they see spirit more than we do  mine often sit and look as thou they are looking at something 

      horses to are very sensistive .they have very good intuintion they sense danger .anybody who says animals dont have souls i just dont want to know . 

      iv heard people also say they have seen or felt  there dead pet in times of trouble .

      I would go a little further Tiswas. Itvis the spirit and the soul that makes us what we are in our mortal bodies.

      As you say, the spirit the essential me that lives on when the body dies.

      maybe george not definate on this i just know that when i was at mygrans funeral i looked at the coffin and thru my tears i suddenly got a message that says your gran is not in there she is in you that is just her mortal frame 

      and suddenly it was easier 

      i think sometimes i hang on to my memeories of the ones iv lost to much but i am afraid if i stop thinking abou tthem i will forget them

      The soul as the driver of the living body seems the only way to explain the individual differences between animals of the same species. 

      Whether there is imortal spirit also I can't say. 

    • Posted

      it is quite common that the 'departed' comforts their loved ones for a short period after death. Death is not the end but a transition. Some are more aware of it than others. Nearly everyone feels that there is something behyond death. 

      Our sorrow is that we have lost the society of our loved one. Not that they have ceased to be.

      Departed is a more accurate description. Deceased seem spositively incorrect.

      mygran died 98 and my grandad 90 i still miss them something awful 
    • Posted

      Aye, Tiswas. There were soul mates. you can get different spiritual strains running in families. Different groups of 'soul mates' running down the generations.
    • Posted

      ultimately I believe note.

      However given the fantastic variety of animals on planet earth. I expect that the New Earth will be even more wonderfully populated by men and animals. As the men will have the spirits they had on earth the same may well apply to the animals. After all the New Earth will be fully populated from the outset and there will be no sex - it will not be needed.

    • Posted

      I think the soul is the driver of the body and interface with the body for the spirit . So different. The soul needs oxygen. if there is no oxygen or no blood the body fails. the soul has no further function. The spirit lives on awaiting a new body, ideally an eternal spiritual body. No soul interface needed.

      I must have got mixed up, glad you think they have souls too! 

      Horses come through the village often. Once I was sitting on my wall on a sunny day in a really happy mood. A horse and rider came by and the horse stopped and just stood there looking at me. I was really pleased; we had a connection but the rider woman was trying to get him to move on and turning angrier and angrier because he wouldn't budge. lol

      In the end I said "It's alright, I'll go inside' so I did.

      I peeped out from behind my living room door through the window and he'd moved on but as soon as I looked at him he stopped again and stood looking through the window at me. Lol

      I hid behind the door and he went. An amazing moment. I would have liked to meet him without the grumpy rider!

      There's a lovely horse down the road I have a connection with. We know what each other are thinking.

      Yes horses are very sensitive animals.

      We were on a tour of the plains of Hungary. We watched a riding display. After, the tourists were invited to ride. Initially there was an eagre response to ride the horses offered. None of them would go. Interest fell off very quickly. The mare we tried to ride was a gental beast. It was clear why she would not go. She was totally foundered - all four hoofs agony. 

      I gave her a little fondling and she relaxed, enjoying the TLC.The senior horseman was livid. If looks could kill. 

      Those were the memories I took away with me. The gentle mare and the cruel master.

      I don't understand how anyone could treat those majestic, graceful animals badly; it makes my blood boil!

      To my chagrine I ate horse once though. I was staying with a family in France on a school exchange trip and I didn't realise until afterwards that the meat I was given for tea was horse! Felt awful about it. sad
