theDave View Profile History	my confession Posted : 30 Sep, 2009 11:19 AM In the past few weeks I have criticized a lot of people, both men and women, using nothing but philosophy and reasoning without giving a glimmer of myself for someone to in turn criticize. I view this as one-sided and even immoral and I offer my apologies. I do not, however, apologize for anything I have said. I have only answered as truthfully as my perspective can allow. I must commend those who have made themselves vulnerable to everyone in this community. Here is my confession. As Paul often struggled with the law as his great temptation, and even the thorn in his side, I struggle with nihilism. In the same fashion that Paul struggled with grace as a fundamental portion of the Christian experience I struggle with purpose as a fundamental portion of the human experience. This is not clinical depression as it is not self-centered. My heart mourns the cogs and sprockets of the political/industrial machine in which we all play a part with no choice. How can we even have a choice when the political/ruling class, who are supposed to be under our employ, do not even consider the will of the masses and instead forces us to give up our rights and sovereignty? Anyway, this is my struggle and in a way my hell. Please tell me where the meaning in life lies and please don't give me the uber-spiritual, cookie-cutter church answers (cop-outs). Post Reply

DontHitThatMark View Profile History	my confession Posted : 11 Oct, 2009 11:33 PM Preachers and missionaries are supposed to spread the word. That's it. They aren't judge and jury for the world, that is not the role for Christians. We are supposed to teach/preach/witness. And while we are supposed to stand up for our beliefs, picketing an abortion clinic is not the way you do it. Pregnancy clinics are good, trying to make it easier for people to adopt is good...work the opposite side of the field. All picketing does is make the field harder to cross. Picketing does not convince anyone that something is wrong...God does. :peace::peace: Post Reply
