" The web is a trap Like the spider's web is a trap for flies Also, the lovely embroideries are worn by women as traps for men from a certain point of view From a certain point of view And I want to consider the web as something playful You see there are so many ways of looking at it And you will fi...

I do not want to lie and so I am not going to make declarations I do not feel confident making just to be impressive. If I knew I was an immortal being who has lived before and is on a mission to fulfill Father-God's plan, then I would say that. However, I don't know and so I must remain open to th...

Ok. High spys things just clicked and then unclicked. I think I can now see what high spy has been saying. I appreciate your perspective valo. It is definitely an interesting idea and some of it makes sense to me. I would be deeply concerned if God went for a walk in a body and forgot who he was. I...

I think, as Christians we are taught that God is the light, the goodness and in him cannot reside any darkness. God and Christ are taught to be pure. But if we take a more pantheist approach then yes, you can say God is everywhere and in everything literally. They do say omnipotent, the alpha and o...

Yes but I have gaps in my knowledge on this at a certain point. However, I believe it is true for at least this creation. Here is an idea that can help explain the answer. Atman is Brahman...

Interesting. Valo, does God have a dark side? Yes but I have gaps in my knowledge on this at a certain point. However, I believe it is true for at least this creation. Here is an idea that can help explain the answer. Atman is Brahman... The self, is the universal self. In certain parts of India wh...

That's good to recognize that in ourselves. Thanks for your answer and, you're welcome. Depression is also a part of the darkside. I think most people don't think of it like that but it is as well, an expression of the darkside. The darkside also includes death, fear of death, pain, suffering, etc....

That's probably about right. I adore the Book of Mormon and believe it to be a true book that contains the words of God and it does truly speak of a people that were real, however, "...things are not as they seem" . Books of wars and rumours of wars. It is possible to look at everything in this lig...

Weird that you didn't quote me. Almost like you're scared! :D Scared?? Umm, no. My response was directly after yours, so that plus the context made it clear to whom I was responding. That the primary events of the Book of Mormon took place in the Americas is an assumption. It is not in the texts. I...

I already started by acknowledging that I will assume the same. I mean what are the capacities inherent in all humans? We all have a darkside. Many, maybe most, deny it, but it's there. Anger, frustration, impatient, bickering, bad mouthing, being deceptive, we all carry that capacity. It's importa...
