Do you just structure all your views in a strategic manner in hope that one day people will allways say "that iron has several dimensions to his character?"Certainly not. The man's a fool!
I accept that actually, because even if beyond it God wasn't to "proven" to exist, that is irrelevant to the fact that it is a beautiful belief to hold about humanityBecause God is love, see. If genuine love is there, so is God. You can serve and love God without realising it; you may even follow Christ's example of compassion and universal love without ever being told about Him. But in our context, I think that the point is that you cant help but love God if you are good and loving and true to Christian values; they go hand in hand!
God is love!
the catholic institute? please, purgatory was created in the book "the divine comedy" - a metaphysical jurney through hell, purgatory and heavan. some people think its a metaphore for the life of the author.Your thinking is too black and white. At the Catholic institute we have discovered exciting developments in afterlife technologies and are proud to present you with: purgatory
That is a good of way of looking at it I guess.My friend says 'hell is only an absence of God'. I think this makes sense.
Only Lentern is arrogant enough to offer a compliment by way of an insultDo you just structure all your views in a strategic manner in hope that one day people will allways say "that iron has several dimensions to his character?"
Just to clarify; do you mean that I intended to compliment you but did so with an ironic insult or i meant to offend but actually ended up flattering you? Your many dimensions make it hard for me to be sure.Only Lentern is arrogant enough to offer a compliment by way of an insult![]()
One of my favourite yes prime minister scenes has to do with that song. Jim is doing an address to the nation and is choosing the intro music. The studio bloke suggests stravinski if he wants to look dynamic and fresh or Mozart to look traditional and sound. Jim says he wants a British composer. The studio man says how about Elgar and Jim agrees that Elgar really speaks for what Jim is all about. Then Bernard pipes in "you mean the enigma variations".I refer you to Elgar. He offers my answer, but you must first be open to it

It was given colour by Dante and structured by him; it was not created by him. While the life metaphor certainly is a component of the work, to suggest that the concepts regarding the nature of sin and the inferno, purgatorio and Paradiso are of little or subsidiary theological importance is false. In many ways, much of it is a religio-poltical allegory as well.the catholic institute? please, purgatory was created in the book "the divine comedy" - a metaphysical jurney through hell, purgatory and heavan. some people think its a metaphore for the life of the author.![]()
This.Yes! Even if the Christian God does exist, we should revolt against him and demand a better set of commandments.
God LOVES us tho rite? rite??hell is separation from God, but it is also a place of eternal torment and suffering.
