Free Will

Meandering through life's maze,
A course plotted, while courting fate.
Stumbling upon moments of love,
In a world of wonder, clouded by hate.

An apple of guilt provided by a malevolent god,
Introducing sin so that he didn't have to spare the rod.

Omnipotence is impotence when free will takes the blame,
After death does free will flee, or is it more of the same?

Self fulling prophecies proclaiming righteous death,
Religious leaders willing to save our souls and steal our breath.

Live life and be happy, rejoice, it could be all you've got
Don't live waiting for death after life, let your will free your thought.

I Don't Deny A Creator

I don't deny a creator, no one can ever know where we came from, I deny religion and the multitude of gods our fears have become.

Magic

Everywhere you turn something bad is hapening. Poverty, war, rape, murder, hunger, heartbreak, you name it we've got it. All the negative stuff makes people want the postitive stuff even more.

A Godless World

Is it really a good thing to deny the existence of any higher power at all. After having a lively debate with a "friend" I am starting to think it isnt.

Death

I believe that our bodies are merely just; shuttles or carriages that we inhabit until the capsule that is our physical bodies can no longer stay alive and therefore, we; in our physical state, die.

@leelee101 cheers, read something recently that I hadn't even occurred to me before and it started this one off: if god gave us free will, and that results in the ability to do bad things.. What happens to free will after death? Do we lose it? What are we without it? If we keep it, then the same problems it carries continue beyond the grave..

@Burrfoot it's that god fella again... My free will cost a fortune mate... 😂👍

@leelee101 the interest could take an eternity to repay 😉😂

Free will doesn't end at death mate, lol read Dolores Canon books (google, eBay ect) it's quite an eye opener 👍

@smellyfingers just looked at her website.. Gave up at the bit where she talked to Nostradamus 😂

No!! Keep going mate! Find her book called "between life and death" it's fascinating lol she's a past life regressionist (world renowned and won loads of awards), obviously need an open mind but IMO she paints an interesting view on it all. 👍

@smellyfingers I'll add it to my reading list, but as theories go, it's as credible as heaven

On seconds thoughts, I've read a bit more.. She also claims to have cured AIDS. Cuckoo

😂😂😂 I can't force you mate, free will, but she talks about free will, what happens at death and why, guardian angels and how and why ect ect she's regressed thousands and thousands of people and they all say and describe the same things in detail......coincidence? Is reading the New Testament more credible than an old granny with vast experience and knowledge to share? Like I said, free will mate 😂😂👍

Yip, she's probably as credible as the new testament .. Or Derren Brown 😉

I dunno about the aids curing pmsl! Maybe cos I've had a few near death experiences (white light and stuff) that I can relate to it and open my mind that's not to say I think what ah says is gospel and truth, to have an opinion on something IMO is good to have a few perspectives and see from all sides of the argument! ☺👍

Bravo 👏👏👏 love last lines 👏👏👏

@sarahgamal ty kindly 😊

@smellyfingers totally agree that we should learn as many perspectives as possible 👍 I'm sure David Ickes

Icke has some reasonable points. Always try to keep an open mind, but it's still a mind open to proof, that can't cherry pick. One daft claim spoils all sense of trust in a philosophy

Yep agreed but forget Ickes, follow what David Wilcox says, much more informed and Ickes is a copycat queen lol. Wilcox is at divinecosmos.com 👍

@smellyfingers I will do, I may mock, but I do find it all interesting, especially when supernatural forces aren't involved.
