Zone1 Another question to ponder.

If it wasn't a nit, it would do till you found a nit. Looked pretty nitish to me.

Proving that Slyhunter isn't agnostic isn't a nit.

Except I don't have hope and faith in myself. Quite the contrary. My hope and faith is in God. In Jesus Christ.

The faith you describe is nothing more than man believing in himself. What a disappointment.

If what one puts their faith in isn't so, then their faith is empty and powerless.

If you dont believe in yourself you believe in nothing

If, for the sake of argument, God doesn't think, act, like sinful man, then He is 'unreasonable'.

If god was a person, he would be the worst person on the planet. Throughout history.

Psychology suggests people provoke anger for control, attention, revenge, or to cope with their own insecurities, low self-esteem, shame, or trauma, often projecting their internal negativity outwards or using it as a defense mechanism to feel powerful or mask vulnerability, a tactic sometimes called rage baiting. These behaviors stem from unmet needs, attachment issues, or defense mechanisms where individuals might feel unsafe and lash out defensively, or lack empathy and find amusement in others' reactions.

Psychology views rage baiting as a form of provocation that exploits our emotional triggers, activating fight-or-flight responses and increasing stress, often linked to narcissistic needs for attention and control.

I do. But im also not in my 60s and have the emotional intelligence of a 12 year old girl.

More rage baiting?

Rage baiting and gaslighting are deeply linked because rage baiting often uses gaslighting tactics (like denying reality or calling someone "too sensitive") to provoke an emotional (rage) reaction, then the gaslighter denies or twists that reaction to maintain control. Essentially, rage baiting is the provocation, and gaslighting is the denial/distortion of the resulting emotion, weaponizing it for control.

For my Mothers sake I hope there is a eternal bliss because she's earned it.

I hope so also.

I believe there is an afterlife for all of us that we can shape in any way we want. I have had many experiences with the afterlife and its real.

That seems dangerous to me.

No its wonderful

Makes no sense. I certainly believe I exist. But my faith and hope is in God and Christ. Not me.

Another question to ponder.​

So god sent jesus (himself) to save us from himself. He did that so he could forgive sins. Atonement.
Why didnt he do that, instead of the flood? Why did he kill the entire planet and almost all the animals, when he could have just sent jesus earlier? Did the omniscient one just not think of jesus yet? Or is he just a freaking psychopath?
This is just another pondering that leaves me in the "WTF" category.

Have faith, my son! The answer to your question is right here:

So a predator can shape his afterlife to satisfy his predatory lusts?

You must believe in your innate ability to accomplish things attain goals. Then God instils hope in you but its your hope. The absence of hope is despair

Sure so what he cant hurt anyone
