Quote: The Mona Lisa has a lot of patchwork. Also the Sixtine Chapel. Any
masterwork has patchs (it's impossible to make a paint without overimposing layers). But has happens with the
masterworks, there's no wrong that can't be done by anyone without being reverted, sooner or later, to
God's most glory.
I know how that last line sounds. But to me, it's not being fanatical, but the truth. It's the Jesuit's
motto, and even Tolkien wrote it in "The Silmarillion".
But it's not perfect. It may be a masterpiece, but it's not perfect.
Quote: Tht's why we aren't perfect. We're PERFECTIBLE.
Aspiring to the perfection, getting better and better no matter that true perfection is never
achieved.
I don't know why, but striving perfection is being asked to be shot. There's too much desire in trying to be
perfect and leading to a downfall.
Quote: why do we feel guilty? because we have done something wrong? maybe.
but a better answer is : because we have broken God's rule, which is according to God's logic which makes up
his 'rules' BUT unlike angels, he gave us the will to choose to follow or not those 'rules'. ok. why
guilty? we fear 'he/she' will find out what we did something we are told no to do.
etc : a kid stealin' money (large amount) from his parents (for the first time, maybe) then he will get this uneasy
feeling when he talks to his parents(guilt).
we are born knowing the rules of God. that's why there are laws on crimes in every countries. anyway what im trying
to say is we live in God's rules and regulations. anything wrong we will feel it (for a regular person, any
religion).
if he's gonna change the 'rules' then our logic on 'rights' and 'wrongs' will change.
We aren't born knowing the rules of god. We don't even know what his true intentions are. If you want, look
into the bible, but it's written by human hands, can you truly say we know god's intentions? Also, this has
nothing to do with guilt. I'm stating more of reputation line. Considering god seems to like being worshipped,
would you want to worship someone that destroys rules?
Quote: That's not a miracle. Miracles can't be explained.
Mutations can be explained.
What I mean is, like people were always afraid of HIV and what not correct? To actually finally have a chance of curing
it and thinking that it is something that could not be cured, would that not be miracle?
Quote: If God were to declare "I don't have to follow my own
rules", then he would not run the risk of hypocrisy. BTW, I don't consider God to be completely good. With all
the s*** the human race confronts on a daily basis (especially in third-world countries), I would start to think that
God doesn't care.
I have to agree with that. Most people consider god as omnibenevolent and what not, but I just think that it's not
even true to the most part. If god were to declare that he doesn't follow his own rule, well it rules out him being
omnibenevolent.
So... much... oh well XD
