Dog Poet Transmitting........
You know you are in the Kali Yuga when a dog is man's best friend.
Let me start out linking up an article that I came across yesterday. They've been pushing this kind of thing for awhile now and you know whose money is behind this. It's the people who own the mediums where this viewpoint is being proliferated. It's a Tribe & Satanic enterprise, which is ironic because, they have this thing where they insist they are chosen by the god they don't believe in. This posting is not about them except peripherally. They may come in and out of this posting and maybe there will be no further mention of them. Oh wait! Of course there will, obliquely, given I have a couple of directions to go in here.
Anyway, I want to draw your attention to the yadda yadda given by these people for why they don't believe in the divine and... like clockwork, or kitchen mold, it always repeats itself; the numbers don't change and it always turns out to be the same thing. It's not about the divine. It's about religion. I've probably got less use for religion than they do because in general, I know more about it; meaning that they have a superficial understanding (by choice) and I have a more nuanced awareness, due to research. It's to be expected that they wouldn't know much about it, given how little interest they have in it.
Let's not presume here that I think I am any kind of expert at this very complex subject. I'm just saying that it is likely I understand the phenomenon better than the people in this article. In any case, it doesn't matter if I do or I don't. The point is that none of them have said anything about the divine. It's all about religion. I've brought this up before.
You might also notice how most of them talk about being nice to other people as if they themselves were a religion, or a god; which is what I think the point is. A lot of these people are actors. Actors are more self involved and narcissistic than anyone but politicians and religious figures; wait a minute, those are all actors, so it changes nothing.
The reason I am even bringing this up is because of the mention of the power of appearances in recent postings. Here are some classic examples of where intelligence means nothing in terms of understanding reality. Intelligence is simply a tool that gives you a greater ability to create your own reality which, of course, is not reality. I am constantly amused at these people who know what they don't know and they will defend to the death their right to believe in and promote it.
Of course, religion has been off the rails for many, many centuries. It's the manifest business and social control end of something is has almost no connection to. When you bottom line it, it always comes down to too many people being too stupid and self serving. This gives the manipulators the handle to maintain society in a state of managed disorder, while reaping corporation like profits out of the pockets of rank and file Dodo Birds. Here's a little illustration; the evangelical movement operates out of the mechanism of controlled hysteria. What they do is play to the emotions, which they cynically inflame for their own benefit. They wrap people up in these constructs of rapture, exclusivity and subjectivity, in order to herd them toward support of the political arm of the equation, so they get these, ostensibly, loving and charitable souls to back the war machine a la “Onward Christian Blockhead Soldiers”. They then imagine they are giving their lives and their resources for the great shining Christ or Mohammad in the sky; where they will go when they die and meanwhile living and acting in a completely hypocritical fashion, in opposition to most everything their master taught.
In an age of self interest, there are thousands upon thousands of people who consider themselves educated and intelligent and they aren't going to buy into the existence of a creator for one New York minute, thereby making themselves into those chronically afflicted by the 'Baby and Bathwater Syndrome'. Of course, most of what they say is true on the face of it. This is all cleverly put together by the Prince of Darkness to lead these puffed up pastries into great spiritual danger.
The endless march of pedophile priests across the headlines; the daily trumpeting of Muslim extremists (in the employ of Israel and Western intelligence) engaged in acts of outrage, the big haired preachers with the gold Rolexes and all the permutations of insanity that are being displayed by religious icons and systems has not come about by accident. It is all orchestrated; by whose hand? Well, I don't suppose I have to detail that yet again, as I have already done this ad infinitum but... let me once again state; The Devil works for God. This is all for the purpose of demon-stration to show who is worthy and who is not. More specifically it is part of a cosmic computer program that has to do with after life routing. It is part of a galaxy wide transit system that ranks people according to the quality of their hearts and the clarity of their minds and then... color coded, they are sent on to the regions where their lessons can be most effectively learned, or where their punishments and rewards can be meted out.
I don't need to prove or disprove the existence of the ineffable any more than I need to argue about the presence of the sun in the sky. I ONLY have to prove things to myself. If another should choose to believe as I do, fine. If they choose not to... fine. That is not my affair to sort out in the minds of those opposed, the nature of truth, HOWEVER it may actually be. This is an individual affair. You CANNOT force people to believe something they are resistant to. Well... yes you can but... that is not my department.
Easter is about ten days away. It is perhaps my favorite day of the year, along with Christmas. I use these terms for ease of association but I recognize that parallels for these exist in every enduring religious system. You could say they are simply religious and cultural variations upon the worship and celebration of cycles in Nature. They are; solstices and equinoxes, continuously engaged in rinse and repeat... all part of the universal laundry system and all a part of the Karmic system of going through the motions of getting whiter whites and brighter colors. If you didn't have Karma, the whole drama would have a remarkably different appearance. It might have no appearance at all, or it might be something entirely different because YOU would be entirely different.
Sometimes is can be very nice down here and sometimes it is dreadful and sometimes you are very nice and sometimes you are dreadful. Sometimes this is individually displayed and sometimes it is expressed in much larger collectives and sometimes it is both. At the moment it is both; exemplified by there being so many billions here who forgot why they came, or who were compelled to come for The Great Harvesting.
If your concern is to wallow in Material Culture, then that will determine your forward progress. If you are one of that smaller amount who struggle against various conditions of Material Culture; both outside and inside of yourself, your struggle will determine your forward progress. It is a Grand Deception and it is a game. It is a system of checks and balances; a REAL system of checks and balances and it is a battlefield of warring elements, demonstrated to perfection by what takes place in your own personal battlefield. Make peace there and you will have peace everywhere. Those who have mastered themselves have no need to fear ANY conditions that might occur out here; “If god is for me then who can be against me?” “Greater is that which is in you than that which is in the world.”
Like I said... I like Easter very much; not because I intend to attend some sunrise ceremony somewhere because if I do it won't be somewhere, it will be right where I am... but it is because of what it symbolizes. It symbolizes the triumph of spirit over matter. It symbolizes liberation. It is evidence of what is possible and what has also been achieved some number of times by souls like yourselves, following in the footsteps of the great one, who accomplished it so that we might know it is possible.
Atheism and ignorance go hand in hand. That there is a divine presence can be seen in everything, should one choose to. Absence of the same can also be seen in everything if you choose to. I have had it proven to me more times than I can even remember; ergo I consider myself one of the luckiest men in the world, despite all of my considerable hardships, I am one of the luckiest men in the world.

Me too.
Nick Cave nailed the whole atheism debate when he said: "I believe in God, not because of religion, but in spite of it."
I believed that a Great Harvesting would occur on 21/12-2012. When it didn't, I didn't think much of it in the beginning, but after making the mistake of screaming at full blast at 25-30 peaceful people some days later that I was afraid I would commit suicide (I did mean it), because of emotional hurt and affront inflicted by what I saw as betrayal by a girl who was also part of this group, and who provoked me, challenged me to do this, while she was leaving the building with her new-found lover. Anyways... I turned white as a sheet, instantly realizing my mistake (uh, that's how you burn off Shakti!), and crumbled inside, apologized to the fazed people, some of whom were nice enough to ask if I felt really well, and we sat down, I in a daze that was quickly replaced by an insane rage. How did she dare? I was thinking, and I wanted to ask her this burning question, and I ran out into the snowy road to chase the two lovers down and ask her how she could be so callous. I could not find them. Anyways, long story short, some 4 weeks after this incident I got the idea that the 21/12 had actually been the day of harvesting, that I had made the grade, and that I had then doomed myself to another 26.000 years here by scaring the people with my unholy screaming. This idea precipitated a hellish period of suicidal and apathetic depression. A very good lesson from my Dear Mother Kali. I will never again believe in prophesies, dates or unfounded things. Wishful thinking can be a real joy-killer when the mirror shatters. That the Divine is real, I do not doubt. I have had it proven to me more times than I have counted. But I do not understand Its Mysterious Workings. To me, this idea of a Harvest is a foul and unholy lie from the Master of Lullabies, Mr. Intertia.
But you, Visible, I love. And I don't know what is True about this matter. Just stating my view.
Be well, All.

The goddess Kali WILL exact vengeance for the collective demonic (past and present) treatment of her dear animals.
Will her husband, Lord Shiva, succeed in tempering her? I don't know, but even if he does, her anger will pervade the entire world.
It's been said via the nuclear radiations which fall under her purview..
Dear Vis,
I have come to the same conclusion as you, and like you I have spent a great deal of time researching to secure a more informed view. I marvel at the ignorance of the majority but I don't get annoyed by it. Seeing how blind others are makes me realise how blessed I am. Then again I made the Divine my best friend a long time ago and the Divine is a wonderful friend/protector/teacher.
The Divine has been pressing me lately to comprehend why those who are immersed in the dark do what they do (raping, torturing, having sex with, and eating young children). It is my understanding that the Divine is showing people such as myself what some people get up to so we will understand why the Divine must do what the Divine does!
I agree with your conclusion that the Devil works for God. I have absolute proof of this from my own interactions. Evil wants nothing to do with me! Evil locks doors in my face and runs the other way. Such is life when you have the blessings of the ALL. After all who can be against you if God is with you?
As to your query in the last post McCob, yes all is well where I am. It always is. The Divine really does take wonderful care of me. Even when I am surrounded by demons the Divine nestles me in his loving arms and deflects all danger, unless the Divine wants me to stand up in order to grow. Then I do, with a passion :o).
Thomas don't lose heart friend because the harvesting is occurring. I clearly see the chaff being separated from the wheat, that is what materialism is for.
To be honest I am overcome with compassion, love, and forgiveness for those who walk in darkness because I can't imagine taking such a perilous journey as this with my eyes blindfolded and my brain idling in neutral.
I am overcome with gratitude that the Divine has given me eyes that see and ears that hear, and I am convinced that this is not due to any feat of mine but rather an expression of the Divine's unbelievable ability to forgive and love :o).
I know this might irk some people but I think this journey is absolutely awesome. I don't even allow myself to ponder on what comes after this but I have a feeling that it will be something well worth the effort :o).

Not surprising since they all work for the State, which has been at God's throat since Cain and Abel, Romulus and Remus. You may recall Henry VIII got into financial trouble, plundered the Church and made himself Pope. Nowadays the State finances and creates cults like Scientology, Mormonism, Crowley and the OTO, Jonestown, the list goes on. They can deal with gods but not with God, because deep down they know God hates them.
I haven't posted in some time. I've been going through some very dark nights, the Divine trying my soul to raise all the good to the surface instead of letting me keep it selfishly and safely locked up deep inside. But I have come out on the other side wiser and more sure of God's love and forgiveness and adoration of me than ever before.
Speaking of materialism, I think I have failed miserably. I am moving and realize how very few possessions I actually have. All my clothes can fit in a small duffel, I have a few spiritual items that I am fond of, but mostly books. I'm 52 and my entire worldly possessions can fit in a small U-Haul trailer. It was bugging me for a while since I saw it as a failure. God, I thought, at 52 I should have way more than this! Then I realized it's better not to be weighed down.

Vis, I think the atheists/materialists/whateverists are afraid. (This is the injured/programmed humans, not the true baddies.)
One of the 'biggies' that one realizes along-the-way is that telepathy is the norm as one works their way towards higher levels. If one is relatively at peace with oneself, telepathy is no biggie. However, if one has massive internal conflicts, telepathy is intolerably scarey.
So, higher levels are verboten, by definition, due to this 'nakedness'. All resulting 'intellectual gymnastics' are simply ways to disguise this primal fear.
I also saw a manifestation of this with recent commentary on "zero sum game" by materialists. If the higher levels are verboten, the intellect seizes on this to cry out for warfare (in whatever guise) to obtain slices of a finite pie. Pure Darwinian.
I have been fortunate enough to have things 'pop in' where I had just confirmed their absence. So, I know it is not a zero sum game. Endless prosperity awaits.
However, it's 'price' is the working-out of those massive internal conflicts...

“If god is for me then who can be against me?” “Greater is that which is in you than that which is in the world.”
Les, I totally agree the point of this blog, I think some Atheist go way to far to spread their agenda, which is found on nothing.
I can only share my testimony as to why I believe in God. The third time I was hauled off to the hospital by the police, and massively drugged against my will, a violation in every way of my God given rights. I don't know how many hours passed, but as I was waking up and the TV that was on in front of me was coming into focus there was a news reporter standing in a grocery store with all the stuff knocked off the shelves. When I finally could read the screen it was covering an Earthquake that hit D.C, in that moment as evil as this may sound sound I felt so vindicated I felt as if God himself was standing up for what they did to me, and I felt so rejected by the world, yet so accepted by God. At the time I really felt like Christ, so in some ways that was good and not good for my psychological health. During that time in my life, God was the only strength I had, I don't put the blame on my Mother as much as I do the system, which is what is broken in our world. I think the best characterization for God is that of a teacher. That is something that characterizes you as well. Especially in Origami. I've documented some phenomenon that I witnessed first hand. The strangest thing was a piece of my vertical window blinds which I took down and painted an image onto. Then about a week later seeing part of that image stretched across the sky with the same colors in the clouds, and being able to document it on facbook cause I uploaded a photo of the painting, and then a week or two later the picture of how it appeared in the clouds right from my front porch. Someone who has sparked my fascination is Vaslav Nijinsky after being the lead Dancer in ballet Russes he was institutionalized for believing he was God, he might have been. He passed on 4/8/1950 what is strange about that date is that 3 years earlier on that day NASA recorded the largest sunspot ever recorded since record taking began and to this day it holds the record. About a week before Leonard Nemoy passed, I saw the documentary he hosted on the Mayan civilization, and towards the end of that documentary he gives the year of 2011 as the end of our civilization, and he say it will be by an earthquake. Nijinsky was born on 3/12/1889 11 years before the 20th century, the earthquake happened on 3/11/2011 11 years after the 20th century, so if God is the Alpha and Nijinsky was God he would have begun his life as Man on that day 3/12. Michio Kaku claims in string theory there is 11 dimensions to the Universe. Nijinsky carried out the role of Krishna in the Blue God beginning in 1912. After all that recent information when it comes to God or an image of God it's Nijinksy who fills that role for me. I might just be crazy, but that is where I bet my soul. Nijinsky is my God.
Yup Vis,
Hardships seem par for the course indeed ...
However it looks like we might have a gathering here of luckiest people in the world ... ;)
What is this place to us when we're not here? A game of chess? Monopoly? Go fish? Yo-yo? Devolve to evolve after deciding to see what it's like to separate from Source, then get over wanting to cater to the ego concept? For those of us who no longer need this place, isn't it a prison? A state of slavery? After all, how much time do we do what we are 'obligated' to do, as opposed to what we 'want' to do?
Ya know, I have an affinity for those who decided NOT to undergo the so called human experience. Those who chose not to play the illusion game where REAL knowledge is all but impossible to attain for the grand majority of humanity.
Now excuse me whilst I check out the RADCON 4 stats to see if local radiation might be in the danger zone. ;O)
Dear Karen, and others.
The earth is sown, the earth is reaped. This harvest is natural. However, in my view, if there are strong and resistant weeds that are not pulled up, they will strangle the crop.
To me, besides the useless clutter and garbage, based on nothing more than wishful thinking, that the New Age Community has burdened us with, it has also afflicted our collective mentality with at least 2 insidious and evil lies:
1. "I create my own reality" (Answer: "No, sweetie, God creates your reality, and if you want to help mommy in the kitchen you can do so at your own side of the table"),
and
2. "there will be a Great Harvest, and the good shall be sorted from the bad".
(Answer: This one, as far as I have seen, is found in the deepest texts, and the oldest as well, of the New Age variety. It is based on loose prophesies uttered by, to my knowledge, unrealized souls. In my experience, it can bring on a lazy complacency in the face of injustice ("The Universe will sweep in and take care of it! - Lets relax, and wait till we get to paradise!"), and it can bring heavy, heavy toil and trouble on those who take it too seriously, and then find it lacking in explanatory power.)
My view is that this sphere is a battleground between Truth and Lies, and that the winning side will take the whole planet. Truth would take good care of it, becoming a good school for souls that enjoy its potential (and manifest) beauty. Whereas Lies would, in its insane eagerness to rule and control, strangle the whole thing, carve up the mountains, pollute the rivers, and perhaps create the environment for seemingly endless tensions and wars. That, or Lies would create an ever-widening split between the ruling class, and the worker class, where the ruling class would live in splendiferous luxury and narcissistic arrogance and endless power-scheming intrigues, and the worker class would regress to dumb beasts, to be used as suffering and servile slaves for the ruling class.
In my imagination, the possibilites for manifestation, even on the material plane, are limited only by the cold and exacting laws of Nature, in the abscence of any realized beings who it is said can bend these laws to their will. I think The Lord loves Creation SO much that It allows ANYTHING to happen, in a "Let the Strongest, most Willing, prevail". I know that Love is stronger than Hate, but is 1 entity with 98% pure love stronger than a 1000 with 99% pure hate? I don't think so. I do not believe that The Lord has given My Mother Kali her Unflinching Authority only to take it away from her at certain times. To me, The Lord must be absolutely consistent.
I am very inspired by Giordano Bruno, who was burned at the stake as heretic in 1600, by the Catholic Church, for saying that other stars could have planets around them; "the multiplicity and eternity of the worlds". Before the burning, he had a nail driven through his cheeks and his tongue, so that he could not speak his "wicked words". Upon hearing his sentence, he is said to have made a threatening gesture at the judges and said (translated): "Perhaps your souls tremble more upon passing this judgment in the name of God than mine trembles upon hearing it". His bones were ground, and the ashes and bone-dust scattered, the Church literally wanting to obliterate him. Now, that is, to me, Dedication to Truth. That's real grit, and that is what I aspire to.
Being conscious is a torment
The more we learn is the less we get
Every answer contains a new quest
A quest to non-existence, a journey with no end
Epica - Sensorium
The unhinged intellect chases its own tail to nowhere. You said this or something close to it once, Vis, when I shared my bedazzlement with the dense, technical metaphysical writings of Michael Topper. Not to diminish the intrinsic value of their content... but there's no avoiding the fact that the pursuit of intellectual precision often generates a copious amount of words for monkey mind to munch on, without necessarily providing equal sustenance for the soul.
The true innermost heart of peace is our compass in the world. Without access to it, we are lost and all too often don't even know that we are. We habitually rely on the personal me-mind and its puny faculties of perception, deluding ourselves into believing in a mirage of our own making.
As you suggested, Ray B., it is fear for the integrity of the materialistic worldview -- and, behind it, the dream bubble of egoic separation -- that forces modern mainstream scientists to put on the blinders when it comes to the radical implications of quantum physics. As the light of "Mr Apocalypse" dawns, this fog of ignorance is lifting and will continue to do so. It appears that the shadows are beginning to be in retreat mode. (Thanks to Mr. Nah and Gene for pointing to the brilliant writer of the linked article.)
Many of the greatest physicists of the 20th century were influenced and supported in their work by their reading of Vedic scriptures. It is obvious that many of the frontiers we are just beginning to discover were well-known territory before this spiritual night befell the world.
In any case, the Yuga cycle hints that this is all a merry-go-round, up and down we go, always seeming to get somewhere but ultimately just moving in loop de loops, the same story over and over in different forms. That is the world as we know it.
I have had many peak experiences, but the only important message I have gleaned from them is the simple and timeless glad tidings of Love. The madness we see here is illusion. If we choose, we can let Spirit shine through and heal it all with forgiveness, even in our personal minds. The personal mind is, after all, a holographic image fragment of the one that gave rise to the creation we inhabit.
This is theory. It needs to be proven out in practice. I am told that forgiveness was the path that brought Jesus into living oneness with Spirit. It is not an easy path, but it is a simple one.
Religion is a subjective mind construct. Vis puts it well when he talks about God putting on different outfits in different times and places, and people worshipping his old clothes even after the living, indwelling Presence has gone. With Spirit, no form can diminish our freedom and fulfillment. Without it, no form can satisfy. It's the same with religion: it can be a beautiful work of art and a map of liberation, or it can suffocate and disempower, all depending on the orientation of heart with which one approaches it.
Love can do no wrong. All forgiveness is forgiveness of self and leads to healing. Forgiveness is recognition and remembrance of the truth: in the eyes of God, all are equal, beautiful, free, and innocent. None are outside. Only thinking makes it so.
I don't always feel so lucky, but I guess I truly am. My heart is connected to the right place, even if I'm a suffering, obstinate fool on the surface. I'm grateful for every opportunity to seize the moment and take God's hand. I'm grateful for the winks and nudges from the other side. I'm grateful for the ones I love; there's no greater blessing than that in this life, if we only have the awareness to appreciate it.
Thanks.
God the Father loves man.
Love,
Magdelena
“I do not like eating meat because I have seen lambs and pigs killed. I saw and felt their pain. They felt the approaching death. I could not bear it. I cried like a child. I ran up a hill and could not breathe. I felt that I was choking. I felt the death of the lamb.”
~ Vaslav Nijinsky
Visible: Great post. One of your best in my opinion.
Those of you who find "McCob" an annoying bore might want to skip the next few paragraphs.
To all:
About a month ago I was arguing on YouTube about the holocaust. I didn't disagree with any points of the history except magnitude and method. Of course I was called an anti Semitic moron.
I belong to no white supremacist nor neo Nazi groups. I don't go around painting swastikas on walls. I don't admire Hitler. I have never threatened any Jewish people nor have I ever burnt down any Synagogues. No Jew need fear any harm from me. It is only that I find the holocaust narrative hard to believe and I don't believe everything I read in books; especially history books. And how could anyone make out any clear detail out of the confusion and cacophony of a huge conflagration like ww2 There is reasonable doubt!
Anyway I saw a different version of myself. A version that doesn't care what the popular point of view might be. I know there are those who will think I am a monster but I don't care. It blew my mind in a good way. But, it also confused me which is one reason I have picked up the tempo of my posts lately. I never knew I had it in me to risk being stigmatized.
The holocausts has been used as a rhetorical tool for mendacious propaganda. It has been used to garner support for Zionist political ambitions which include hegemony. The holocaust story, how it is used and the way it is kept alive is the very soul of cynicism.
Zionists are heartless bastards who have no respect for the suffering of the victims of ww2. The Zionist and their toadies are worse than any holocaust denier by a very large margin.
I can't help but think I broke some spell; I reversed some brainwashing.
By the way I really resent those bastards for fucking with my head; for treating me like a thing. I resent them for making me resent them.
Fuck you Zionists! Fuck your toadies. As for your suckers: You all better wise up because they don't have your best interest at heart; wake up or your children will have nothing!
For those of you who took the time to read my post, thank you.

Perhaps the Atheist will get what they want when they leave this rock, total nothingness, lights out, soul exterminated.
The reason his audiences began calling him the God of Dance is because he was doing things on stage that seemingly defied the laws of physics. "He also gave a final dance concert, before an invited audience, at a nearby hotel, the Suvretta House. As Romola describes the performance, Nijinsky began by taking a chair, sitting down in front of the audience, and staring at them for what seemed to her like half an hour. Eventually he unrolled two lengths of velvet, one white, one black, to form a cross on the floor. Standing at the head of the cross, he addressed the audience: “Now I will dance you the war…. The war which you did not prevent.” He then launched into a violent solo, presumably improvised, and at some point stopped. On that same day, January 19, 1919, between finishing his lunch and going to Romola’s dressmaker to pick up his costume for the concert, he began his diary." from Secrets of Nijinsky
Anon,
God hates war, as well as injustice, the above describes some kind of spell he was conducting before an audience. What I've been told is that the Rites of Spring which ran in 1913, which he Choreographed, had almost complete creative control in producing was a ritual in which he would take on the Golden Calf, by embodying it himself, he explained this to me in a vision, and he said it has given him the control over the entire banking systems of the World from heaven to issue into it Law. God should not be taken for an Idiot he also wrote in his Diary. "I now understand Dostoevsky's "Idiot"; because I am myself being taken for an idiot. I like this feeling and therefore pretend to be an idiot." Waslaw Nijinsky The banking system is going to bleed for the Dancer, as those famous lyrics for Heaven & Hell by Black Sabbath go.
"The governments shielded the criminals, because the crimes of the governments were executed by them. God does not shield a government which wages war." Waslaw Nijinsky One of the things about him too is that during his life he use to spend all his money on the poor, he gave and gave until he had nothing himself.
Les, i hope for your relationship with God to become infinite and perfect.
“The supreme beauty, the height of finite art, is the drama of the unification of the vastness of the cosmic extremes of Creator and creature. Man finding God and God finding man—the creature becoming perfect as is the Creator—that is the supernal achievement of the supremely beautiful, the attainment of the apex of cosmic art.
Hence materialism, atheism, is the maximation of ugliness, the climax of the finite antithesis of the beautiful. Highest beauty consists in the panorama of the unification of the variations which have been born of pre-existent harmonious reality.” The Urantia Book chap 56.( I know Les is not into this book, and I am not pushing it on anyone, it just continues to be my spiritual touchstone, and perhaps the Bagavadgida is les’)
God is only the divine person living inside our minds waiting to have a relationship with us. God is a person; how could you have a relationship with God if God were not a person. Atheist fail to have an inner (spiritual) relationship with the divine Creator. Atheists refuse to seek, so the do not find. PK
One of your finest essays Vis!
"Of course, religion has been off the rails for many, many centuries...."
So much truth contained in this one paragraph. Thank you as always for your efforts.

Have you ever read "riverbank of truth" blog.
And one other thing that bugs me about atheists is their influence on and programming of the young. We've covered this before but I realized a really big consequence of all this: they are cutting the kids out of the miracle. I mean their assertion that there's nothing out there (or in there) is an assertion that there's no help available beyond what can be physically mustered; no guidance, unexpected breakthroughs, windfalls, healing, visions, epiphanies, fantasy (and yes, I include fantasy because creation endowed us with imagination, offering a shot at co-creation: fantastic!) But, no, these can only be got or pursued with earth efforts and resources. What a sad, sad thing to do to kids, kids who can just about fly until we tell them they can't. I hold those atheists accountable, accountable for compromising human beings by making them believe they are only physical, mental and emotional. No spiritual juice for you, kiddo, no magic or miracle. No hope when all seems hopeless. You are cut off at the knees, sans lifeboat. The great atheistic LIE, holding back the water of life, the fire of redemption and renewal. And they appear so cool and progressive as they spew for and jerk-off the status quo, simultaneously begging it lower its bar, decrease human potential, and bring forth zombies who smile and feign humanitarianism. Ahhh where we'd be without them, without all suppressive, cunning lies, whether they be from politics, media, philosophy; they are covering/hushing/squashing potential. But how good it is that some have given themselves to the uncovering.

atheism is anemic. They have been around forever and they have yet to produce any kind of powerful movement. There are a lot of them, too, but they can't unite in any meaningful political sense. I think they are ridiculous. Much like clowns getting out of the car in a circus. One clown is about the same as the next.
atheists are all of the same philosophically. There is no difference between any 2 of them in terms of the way they think. Contrast that with believers. There are so many differing sects and points of view. There are differing points of view and contentions even within the same denominations.
Big bang cosmology and evolution require happenstance being in their favor at multiple steps of their theoretical processes. If one were to flip a coin multiple times and every time one flipped the coin it came up heads then wouldn't one wonder about whether the coin was fair or not? It is possible to flip a coin 1000 times and have it come up heads but how likely is it. Such anomalies don't seem to bother atheists.
The religious;superstitious built civilization. Most of the great universities of the world started out as seminaries. Most of the great scientists of the enlightenment were believers. Gallileo still loved Jesus and the church even though the church censured him.
Look at the magnificence of the Catholic church. Look at what believers built. What have atheists built? That is easy: nothing.

"It doesn't happen all at once," said the Skin Horse.
"You become.
It
takes a long time. That's why it doesn't happen often to people who
break easily, or have sharp edges, or who have to be carefully kept.
Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved
off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very
shabby. But these things don't matter at all...once you are
Real..."
