Age gives one wisdom so fewer mistakes are made. Almost no one can scam me because I never give them a chance.
It saddens me when I see all the problems people encounter in their lives.
Yes, I had plenty of issues as well going through life, a whole lot because of two and a half decades of extreme alcoholism.
Somehow I came out the other end of those years, not unscathed, but with a modicum of self respect/esteem.
Aging does have it's rewards - eventually. I sit back now and let all those who wish me harm walk right on by, no acknowledgement from me. Move on you ne'er do wells.

I no longer pay heed to those types of negative people and whatever they think.
As my Nan used to say "What other people think of you Lass is none of your business."

Even positive people opinions are perhaps not worth an ounce of wind , eh ?
No matter what people think, it all is gone soon, and
if they are negative, the most they can do is make sick or kill the body, but after that nothing - they cannot touch the soul ....

The Creator though, that is different, isn't it? He can destroy both the body and the soul, so what He things and says is important to pay attention to.

You are entitled to your opinion as I am to mine.
Let's just leave it at that, shall we?

Is there any post in any thread that is not opinion ?

The only hope anyone ever has is to learn what The Creator of All Life Thinks, Says and what He Wants.

I think the way I look at many things is different once I got to a certain age. You live and learn is so true.

Yes, but was it age or learning something new ?
When I was young, I was totally in favor of usa medicine/pharmacy.
When I was older, I learned better (from pharmacy and medical sources themselves).

All along, I sought the truth, but never realized parents, teachers, schools, politicians, scientists, doctors, and so on are all trained to lie convincingly , and only a few ever admit the truth.

Do you include Priests in that list?

I mean how do we really know what is and isn't God's words.
After all let's not forget, that it was the RCC that decided which scriptures would be allowed in the bible and which were not., And let's not forget the time in history when only priests of that church would be allowed to have the bible, the common folks were just supposed to follow directions.

Could it be possible that the RCC designed the bible book by their own agenda?
 
Maybe having a golf cart would make life a little easier around the neighborhood? At the same time, I read a while back that VW is making a beach buggy. They seemed to have different styles. Do any of you have golf carts or beach buggies? I'm curious how to choose a golf cart.

Jesus Himself blasted the 'priests' , and religious leaders and legal teachers.

Their version of religion is a twisted, distorted confusing mess meant to increase their power over the people, deceiving the people always, and not even lifting a little finger to help them.

Well in that case I am all good, as I believe that it was good enough for Jesus not to be in a church or organized religion then it is good enough for me.

I believe that the relationship you have with the creator is private.

Thank you, @Just Jeff it's been a pleasure.

You mean the creator that is claimed to be omnipotent that would be billions of years old?

So mankind was created in their likeness without the benefit of being raised being taught right from wrong. That lack doesn't say much for knowing what was going to happen.

Then there is the wrath thing that you might want to learn about as you probe the mind of the creator.
