Ok,
I have been reading through the Numorous (sp) pages.. to the point of Skimming them.
So I just want to say this.
SAM--STOP
It is great that you believe in GOD, I believe in god, a lot of us believe in GOD.
But your insistence that you need or have ot convince everyone else to believe in him is not right. That is the problem most people, as many have stated here Have.. They dont want or need someone forcing their thoughts and beliefs on them.. nor someone condeming them or their beliefs.
Fact is some people don't believe, and some people Never will believe. That is their right
Let's put it this way SAM.
you yourself have said in a few posts.. and im not going word for word or quoting you, but you talk about the reincarnation and such.
Have you ever thought about the fact that some people perhaps for reasons we can not understand are not meant to believe in GOD.. that there is a reason why there are diffrent beliefs.
Face it, if no one had their own opinions, and there were not any non-believers, the world would be a muh diffrent place, and I am not sure it would be as good as some may want to believe. there has to be balance .. there has to be doubt to have faith.
If GOD has a plan, which I am sure he does.
If our paths are already written in our charts, are you not forgetting that their belief or lack of belief is something they have written for themselves in their Charts.
I dont pretend to know or understand why thier charts would be written in this manner, but it was a chosen path?
Perhap there is a lesson they must learn, and the unbelief they have is part of that lesson... But for reasons none of can know or understand, this is the way they chose to write thier charts, this is the road their guides lead them down, This is part of GOD's plan.
To try and force your thoughts and will upon other people may be in your charts, but it also discourages people from GOD also.
Like many things in life, nature is to be disconforming, the more you try to convince someone that you are right the less they are going to be willing to listen.
If people are to believe in GOD, it will be because of their own experiances, Not because of the thoughts forced on them by others, and not because of the Guilt others try to lay on them for their lack of, and also they are not going to become faithful and believers simply because they are told that to not believe is their own eternal damnation.
We dont know anyones damnation, As I said, If their Charts lead them to be unfaithful, and they follow the path their guides choose for them, then it is up to GOD in the end what their reward or lack of will be,.. And perhaps it is only this life that they lack acceptance, for we dont know what they will write in thier charts for their next life....
It is good to be strong in faith, it is not good to try and Make other people follow your path, if their nature does not take them down that road... thier charts will lead them where they need to go.. and your faith should find comfort in knowing that they are not always on the wrong road just because they don't have the same faith in you.
Take from your own words.. and your own faith, sometimes you can learn from the lack of faith in others.
