Nope
I am not for destroying anyone
again- I am for letting people do what they want, and sometimes they destroy themselves- which is their right, and far superior than doing harm to others.

How can that possibly be me? hmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

PC? Do you even know what this is? Political correctness is just another group activity- sliding with the in crowd, not using the word "niggardly" because the uneducated might think you meant something else. PC is another religion, Greg. It is not for me. You just show yourself to be a fool by associating me with PCness which I have long repudiated.

Hateful and bitter? Well, that is a stretch Greg. Considering you keep failing to realize I am an agnostic and against PC. I rofl laughing at your judgment. I do hate people, but am not a particularly hateful person. I leave that for people like you who SAY they care going to be such sweetness and light (I jsut read a post about that, sigh- such hypocrisy Greg!) and then fall off the wagon at the first opportunity. Your vows are so meaningless, it is good you believe in a God who will forgive you over and over and over again. Go forth and sin incessantly, Greg. Its not easy being civil- perhaps you need to set a lower bar for yourself? Like maybe you could try actually reading the words in the post? That would be a start. And please, if I personally ever advocated DESTROYING anyone myself, post that to me (and please, no barbacoa joke posts from the 1990's)

After my most recent post to you I felt as if I should have retracted it, but it was too late. If you knew me you would understand that I do not enjoy this
type of endless and pointless, back and forth insulting. I rarely respond that way to others. It leaves me feeling diminished as a person and as a
Christian. Therefore I resolve to be civil to you in the future. I don't expect you will stop being who and what you are. I have no control over that, only
my own actions. Please accept my sincere apology for any nastiness on my part towards you, real or perceived.

Have a good day.
Greg "

Are you feeling a wee bit diminished today?

Let it go...

>>Talk about projecting. Your the one who is "all for" destroying believers. Have I ever said I was all for your destruction, even self inflicted? NO! Your cloak of PC tolerance, keeps slipping, to reveal the true you. Hateful and bitter. Rather than rooting for your destruction, I will continue to hold you and your family up in prayer.
Greg>>

...Greg!!

Get off being or seeing only the illuminated grain of sand on the silver screen.

The true X, you, me, Bill, James and Solon are all "out there" in the spiritual, causal medium through which this ONE light, energy and Love passes.

What results "be us" but only in "the effect" that proceeds from a spiritual cause that emmanates from the same ONE End-Source who is our ONE Lord God in Heaven Jesus Christ who I will not attempt to foist upon ANYONE!!

FREEDOM!!

Light!

LOVE!!

Peace!

Where The Streets Have No Name....

>>You really need to take this up with Greg. He fails to see the sweetness and light in me. Since you do, could you please do post some love energy to him? I am full up, Fred. but Greg probably needs an infusion.>>

Ok X.....here goes.....

Greg:

Fast backward to SuperBowl XXXVI (36)
U2 in the center of the field
Heart-shaped stage
The the names of the 9/11 victims start scrolling higher
and higher
and higher

Now imagine being "out there" singing this song.
Really try to imagine the feeling, the energy, the message being shared with the universe.

==========

Where the Streets Have no Name

I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

The city's aflood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, and I see love
Oh, and I see love
See our love turn to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

=============

Mankind is always "still building and burning down love."

One the burning is over, in each and every case, we always get to the point of truth.....

"where the streets have no name..."

>>Oh, when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do>>

Now imagine the year 1871 in Chicago.

>>where the streets have no name...>>

We can ALL go there with each other. Where the streets have no name. For it's all we can do!!

And when we do this U2's act will be brought out into the light of this New Day and there will no longer be scrolling names of dead victims from all this "burning down love."

For there's a New Fire afoot in the world. And it's not about mankind's "religion". It's about the ONE Love that supports, connects and threads us all together as ONE perfect ONE. As the Divine children of ONE God on this New Stage of perfect order, perfect peace, perfect Love.
