Do you ever get the feeling that we weren't supposed to ever have read the BIble?
That perhaps there were those who, wrote, read and understood it and it's metaphor and the rest of us remained oblivious until it leaked out and spead like wild-fire...

Then perhaps this forced those would be elitists to creat a religion out of those metaphors and recount it in such a way as to brainwash those who read it?

Like the Catholic church... I was catholic,I'm an atheist now, (that is I don't beleive in religion)...I have studied some hypnosis and I realised that everytime I had the fear of going to hell for something it was because of unconscious reaction... That truly I have been hypnotised into believing that if I commit a 'sin' I will go to hell.

I no longer believe this but every so often I get a little fear and I have to remind myself that it's ok...
I even had a conversation with my younger sister and others who rationalise religion and very nearly laugh at it BUT one person said...Well I'd rather believe and doe going to heaven than not believe and go to hell.
My younger sister who is a die hard fan of my atheist tinged thinking....even said ...well I think I'm a pretty good person anyway, so If it's true I don't think I'll go to hell....

WTF...(not a reference to wikileaks)
Are we all in a state of fear?
If God is real who the HELL is he/she?

God is not the correct term to describe The Supreme Being. There are many god's but only one Infinite Creator. The religions and what not have tricked people into praying to God's instead of The Supreme Being so therefore the peoples prayers and energy are going to false gods or idols. The people are tricked. No wonder there are Atheists! They never get true blessing or true divine energy because they are going to the wrong Source. The Infinite Creator cannot be attributed to any names. At best we can call it The Infinite Creator of Unconditional Love and Acceptance or The Supreme Being or The Universal Mind etc. At best The Supreme Being can be described by what IT is NOT. Also, it has no sex. It is an ALL POWERFUL FORM OF ENERGY IN THE PUREST SENSE! Since everything is made of energy (everything made in the image of the Creator) it is the ULTIMATE REPRESENTATION OF ENERGY. It is THE SOURCE. All of our Energy comes from it. This is a very important post for people to see.

RE- LEGION . sounds cult-ish. 150 sects all brandishing their own version of mind body and soul control.

Catholic. - CAT-HOLIC (um , addicted to cat's)?
the church claims that it refers to Ancient Greek 'Katholikos' "according to the whole" or 'Universal' (but according to 'Bishop')....but the catch i found is that the word 'Kathos' (in ancient greek) is the word that means 'according to/ in so far' and the word 'Likos' (theres some letter discrepency but....)

'Lycus or Lykos (Greek: Λύκος , a common name for Greek rivers, seems to have originated in the impression made upon the mind of the beholder by a torrent rushing down the side of a hill, which suggested the idea of a wolf (Greek: Lykos) rushing at its prey.'

so, Catholic Church...... 'according to the wolf'. good thing you got out of that Q scary stuff these bibles

I like this post. OH!!! haha. this brings a funny story.....

There was some article today that said that the pope (i think the dead one wtf!?!?!) was now a Beastilion? Or something. I forgot the exact word. But the pope received some honor because when he died, some woman prayed to HIM and was cured of an illness. hahahaha! WHATTTTT! YES! I read this. It is on the internetz, I might find the link later. It was on msn earlier today. WHY WOULD YOU PRAY TO THE POPE!?!? Anyways, they said that if there is another "miracle" that the Pope will go through "SaintHood" and be like the coolest thing next to "God". I had to re read this thing over and over to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. It is the most ridiculous crap of all time. I would love to be able to talk to the pope. Oh the things that I would say to the little devil.

Banx Manx, I totally agree with you
So thw pope is a beast or a wolf!!!
666... the number of the beast
Ariefairy,
it's not difficult to get out of the catholic religion. As far as I'm aware everyone is there by "free will"... It is just the people who question it who decide to leave, it's more of an imprisonment of the mind, of consensual thinking and controlling ALOT of people by using "mass" rituals and repeating incantations which promotes meditation and hypnosis.
Anyone who has their own head on their shoulders will see through it.
But you are right!!!!!! Re-LEGION....I never thought of it in that way!
Catholic..... it sounds like it sound be a nice enough belief, perhaps connected with the cathars?
But then the wolf then... I was thinking Catholicism+ holographically induced catharsis which makes one a victim, at the mercy of those who induce catharsis?

AAH I READ THAT TOO!!. somewhere on bbc news website...yes, i am feeling he has got something like 'little (wolf)man Big Red Chair syndrome' Have you seen the size of it??? its pure insanity.

Q.

your post resonates something quite profound in that connection.

Catharsis ancient Greek for 'cleansing' or 'purging', hmm...

'But then the wolf then... I was thinking Catholicism+ holographically induced catharsis which makes one a victim, at the mercy of those who induce catharsis?'

victim and the master, yes. the Cathar Heresy purged by the wider sect of the Roman Catholic Church... negative induced catharsis, the intensity needed for which the wolf symbolism is a hugely powerful tool. a trilogy called 'little red riding' comes to mind

old testament hebrew of the word 'Cathar' definition

to hide, conceal
(Niphal)
to hide oneself
to be hidden, be concealed
(Piel) to hide carefully
(Pual) to be hidden carefully, be concealed
(Hiphil) to conceal, hide
(Hithpael) to hide oneself carefully

you'd want to hide from the big bad wolf.

Imo, the god in the Bible behaves like some sort of corrupt and cruel dictator. Was it a human emperor, or an alien emperor....a projection of our own imagination/ consciousness- something maybe we created somehow....or a being from another density?

LTT, you are a catlover????
Yep you are sooooo catholic!!!

Yep I think this vengeful, merciless God was reptilian! There I said it....!!!
Who knows, the possibilty of this "God" as a being from another planet, solar system or galaxy is quite high!

I mean I have travelled a fraction of this globe, nevermind the universe...so my mind is open to any possibility.

"All deaths are suicides, do you realize that? Every single one. The only distinction is that, with some people, suicide is a subconscious choice, and with others it's a conscious choice. Otherwise, those who commit suicide and those who succumb to accident, illness or "old age," die for exactly the same reason: belief in the inevitability of death." Linda Goodman
