Why the bitterness?

It looks like alot is in your life, just as everyone else in this world has something going on in thier life aswell. In your essay or writing you say "Christian satan", Well there's no buddist satan or catholic satan or Islam satan, But only one and people portray satan as a powerful being on earth. But really hes only here to terroris and corrupt, THe reason why satan is only one being (but has helpers, Demons)because he is also created by God and a creation is a creation. I'm not sure how you prayed to God, but it looks like you exulted God before you turned away from him and thats Good. Unlike alot of people who know there is a God, People tend to pray about worldly things like cars, money, Job, Relationship, and thats ok to pray for those things, But remember God is not a vending machine where, if you put so much Good things in you'll get a nice prize out. I hope you find Hope to find and search God again, I know that God will not forget you, thats the reason why we have love for one another.

Evil exists

God and Satan are the same.
Both represent evil in it's purest form.
Until we as a people, accept this, evil will prevail.
We must cast off this excuse for our own foul actions.
Gods and devils represent our own inadequacies. Once we
accept this, we stand a chance of achieving some form
of decency.
As long as God/Satan exists in our fantacies, we will
continue to excuse our own hatreds.
Lets kill this evil. NOW!
The future is ours.

Ummm.... please read this......

A simple reduction to absurdium, a case of mental suicide and he even left a note behind for us to read. No attachment to any substantial or desirable philosophy other then a simple, *Oh hell with it, why waste a single iota of effort trying to investigate or substantiate the evidence for ANY religion, I would rather go mow the lawn."
If this is intended to make anyone think decisively and choose between *God or Satan* as the subject heading would have us believe, I think I will go have a long talk with my 2 year old son, as he may have a clearer picture of such a *pointless* topic.
If your going to establish anything that would make people decide to worship.... oh I forgot, satan doesn't want worship, or anything to do with us, hmmm... perhaps you see the absurdium? If he doesn't want us, what do we want him for? Let's use his *non-existence* to further the cause... and kill a few cats while we are at it.
My Advice; Continue to wallow in the greatness of your thoroughly conceived and excellently explained mental state of pre-death rigormortis, and you will indeed find out whether satan is, in fact real, and is, in fact, concerned about your welfare.
But I will save you the trouble of popping enough pills so your body is as dead as your intellect. The answer is; Yes, He does exist, and No, he has no concern for you.

Why am I writing this? Am i sooo impressed by my own faith system that i wander the nether regions of the internet to prose as a great wake up call to those who are asleep like unto death?
Probably. But then again, why shouldn't I? Is this rude? What right do i have to say these things? Why should you care what I think? Am i just a few words to laugh at? Most definately.
I am a Christian, and yet a realist. A Christian and yet not a pacifist. A Christian, and yet not some backwater baptist fanatic. I don't hate people, I hate seeing people disillusioned and deceived. I hate belief systems that have attached to them a one way ticket to hell.
I know My God, And He knows me, and is, In Fact, concerned about me. Read the Bible a little and you'll find out that Jesus used harsh words and harsh measures at times in order to WAKE THE DEAD. I have no hate. Believe what you will, but do so in a right mind and have SOME validation for your world views other then the absense of warm fuzzies or a lack or visual stimmulation.
Face The True God and be prepared.

And just go read John 3:16, most people know it.

God or Satan

Hi, im' not a satanist, nor am i wishing to become one. (I am in fact a shadow jedi of neither light nor dark) if you want a reason for me coming here then read on.
If you want to join Satan's army then be my guest, I did it, and i gained valuable knowledge into revenge, when you realise that Satan will never triumph over evil, but you don't want to go back to the light, join me as neither light nor darkness, nor both, nor neutral just be. If you know what i mean then join me Jin Katay, together we will balance our lives and the lives of those around us.

right........fuck god, fuck satan.......all you gotta do is look at all the heated discussions and wars the two bastards are causing us to have. we would be far better off without the both of them!
seriously, my point is that theres a measure of good and bad in all of us and ultimatly we are all one.when you think about it "god" and "satan" are both very primitive concepts of good and evil and belief in them is born out of a weak and narrow mind. most ppl feel the need to lable things and segregate them, and segragation is THE number one problem in the world today,and this is what religious ppl do......they conform to their oh so high and mighty religion and see themselves as "holier" than most other ppl. comformity is what causes wars, bullying, etc, and when ppl are bullied at a young age there is a danger that they will grow into social misfits and pyschopaths and do much of the so called "devil"s work themselves! we are all one. we are all special in our own way and all this world needs is ACCEPTANCE. we need to find a balance within ourselves, accept ourselves totally, then we will accept eachother and then slowly a new seed will grow, then the world would slowly heal, wars would cease and we could slowly start living in harmony.........but sadly this will probably never be. but shutting the fuck up about god and satan would be a start, dont you reckon?

Enjoyable

Actually, if I could give you two thumbs up I would. that was enjoyable and accurate to say the least. The lady at the unemployment office said the same thing to me...

Thanks for the humor.

butterflies and tsunamis

A butterfly flaps its wings om a grassy plain in Mexico.Small currents of air are generated and gradually amplified. The amplification increase and become wind. The amplification continues to intensify as the wind travels across oceans and mountains, country to country, further and further, ultimately causing a tsunami in Japan.

THE CHAOS THEORY.

Hi,Vexen. I am Vernace. now reading on Chaos Theory~ hope you can check this theory out. It is pretty interesting.
