Thought Dump Part 11.5 - Thoughts are Streams of Info / I am a Menace to Christianity / Each God for Each Nation

--Most of religion, specifically Christianity, makes you feel safe and comfortable because it tells you oftentimes what to believe, what not to believe, how to adhere to the dogmas and so forth. They treat you like a baby in a high chair while they comfortably spoon feed you the sermon that you should digest because it's "true" and "straight from the Bible." Some do encourage you to question their interpretations of the Bible, but only within the confinements of their creeds and beliefs.

However, if you disagree with them, they point out Bible verses why you should agree with them. Even if you have Bible verses to show why you disagree with their interpretations and continue to question their beliefs, many times most, if not all, will still dismiss your position because they were the ones who went to seminary and studied the Bible for years and you didn't.

Oftentimes they treat their church members as this baby in a high chair while they see themselves as well educated Biblical people who spent years studying with the "top Bible scholars" in the world. See they have to diminish you before they dismiss your arguments against their interpretations of the Bible. Then after gaslighting you, they convince you that your research isn't the same quality as theirs because they spent years paying for their education in the Bible while you didn't.

That's the equivalent of turning down a self-taught computer scientist who can code better than those who attended top four year universities studying computer science. It isn't about where you got your degree, but how much time, effort, wit, and desire to expand you put into your education and learning.

However, when they convince you that your arguments aren't valid because your lack of equivalent seminary school, you know it's because you threaten their very authority in the church, and they cannot have that. Another famous counterargument for when you question their interpretations of the Bible is when they say your education of the Bible wasn't as good because you're "interpreting the Bible wrongly", even though the interpretation of the Bible varies greatly based on the current perception of the person interpreting it.

The best part is when you never went to Seminary school however you still know more about their own Bible than they do because you know their seminary schools hold a covert bias towards information and therefore teach that bias to their students. Note to seminary pastors: If you want to learn from the most "objective" manner possible, learn from as many different perspectives as possible because I promise that you will learn more about bias from doing that then by only hearing it from your seminary school. This will also show you the bias you have personally and help you to expand beyond its limits. Then you will see how bias is the accelerator of divisions, dogmas, and interpretations and why you view most of your church members as "less well-verses of the Bible" in the first place.

I love the fact that transgender people confuses so many evangelicals who hold the belief that homosexuality is a sin because oftentimes, they don’t even know how to judge the people who are in front of them. They have to redefine their morality based off of another yardstick because they are confusing themselves with the old outdated yardstick of sexuality because it is well known in the scientific community that it differs from gender identity.

They will hear about trans men marrying a trans women and since they oftentimes confuse sexuality with gender identity, have to choose if they will believe rationally or irrationally in regards to how they will judge someone who doesn't fit in their simplified binary way of thinking. Then hopefully many of them will realize the irrationality of upholding negative viewpoints of transgender people when they find out 1 in about 400 babies have 1 of the 6 sex chromosome variations that biologically change their body in ways different than xx or xy babies and that sexuality and gender identity are two different things.

I am a menace to the system of Christianity. I go where it is afraid to go. I see things that it is afraid to see. I experience things that it is afraid to experience. I am the embodiment of individuality embracing oneness and eternal reality that Christianity is scared to embrace fully. My individuality does not threaten another, but rather it upholds each with loving awareness for their inherent existence. Together with those who are ready to experience it, we rip down the chaotic boundaries of duality to show the unique one this we all share within. Within being the essence, the expression, the beautiful, the unique.

The awareness always there, even when the illusions make things seem not so clear. We represent what people want to see until they’re ready to see something differently. Then when they are, we explore alongside them. Learning as they learn, flowing as they flow because escaping the limits of religion with someone once torn by division, is worth more than any sort of 9-5 job with salary and commission.

We are not here here to save you from yourself, but help you go within to see you've always been saved. We are not here to be your leader, we're here to show you that you are the leader of yourself. We're not here to persuade you to believe one belief over another, we're here to show you that you are beyond all belief systems. We're here to help you remember that which you’ve always been: A limitless, infinite and powerful multidimensional entity.

Jesus did not come to convince you to be codependent on him. Jesus came to show the oneness we all share from within.

Jesus did not come to convince you to worship him. He came to show you the meaning behind worship.

Jesus did not come to convince you to see himself separate from yourself. He came with a a sacred prayer that we would all see that we are all one.

Jesus’ message was not on separation, it was always sourced in oneness beyond our contemplation.

Living your most truest and authentic self even when religions want you to conform to a limited belief of yourself or whe religions try to get you to believe your existence means nothing as you dissolve into Source is in my opinion, one of the most courageous new experiences you can explore. Out with the old, in with the new.

--

Most of Christianity is an experience that teaches you codependency. It does not teach you how to tap into your power by going within. There are structures you must follow. There are rules and creeds you must stay aligned with in order to be considered "a true Christian" by their limited denomination. There are esoteric and mystical branches that are not like that but most definitely mainstream Christianity is like this.

If you are one with God and you truly don’t exist then that means God doesn’t truly exist and everything is an illusion. But if you are one with God and you do exist, that means God exists and you both are part of reality. See if you are truly one with God, that means you are the same as God, and if you are the same as God, that means you are in some way of God.

To say differentiation or separation is our eternal reality within the universe would infer that duality is in eternal reality and illusions are just as real as reality. That would mean that we’re all screwed, including God because he is one with chaotic, incoherent illusions of separation that always was, is and will be.

See when you have a fixed morality based off of the contradicting set of beliefs (In the Bible it says "Do not murder" then "God" tells them to murder) it’s not only confusing, but it also creates superiority mind complexes which can cause people to judge so badly that they put themselves in a perpetual state of judgment.

Another nation during the "Torah times" might call them out and say, "Why are you murdering us for being unrighteous when in your very own law by your very own god it says 'do not murder'?" Then they might say, "Well God says you're unrighteous so you deserve to die." Then the non-Jewish nation might say, "Then you deserve to die too because your nation has been just as "unrighteous" by the same measure! You treat your women like property that are bought and sold and you murder other nations innocent babies who do not deserve to die!"

Then the Jews might argue, "Well you also murder innocent babies in your wars and you see, the Creator said we are his favorite, his chosen people and you are not and therefore we get to live even though we were unrighteous and you get to die." Then because of that, the other nations claim that the god the Jews worshipped was only the god of the Jews, not the Creator of the Universe. For in their minds, they probably thought how could that god be for everyone when in broad daylight, that god proclaims patriarchy, and favoritism?

What’s interesting is that a lot of people within Christianity have tied a temporary thing such as beliefs with an "eternal" idea such as salvation. They have created some sort of chain between beliefs and salvation based off of the few verses which literally does not make any sense. The reason why it doesn’t make any sense is if beliefs are temporary and they don’t truly exist, so how do one tie eternal salvation to something that doesn’t truly exist?

People oftentimes say to me, "Why aren’t you afraid of eternal hell? Like if there is potentially an eternal hell why would are you not afraid of it" And I respond to that with the following statement, "Because since Christianity is a branch off from Judaism and I know that that hell doctrine came from another pagan religion and isn’t from the Jewish religion, nor is it a majority belief within Judaism, then why would I be afraid of hell when it didn't even originate from Judaism in the first place?

What you’re afraid of, you give it power to control you.
When you’re afraid of an object, an idea, or a belief you fill it with your power to control you. It alone has no power. It needs your fear in order to steer.
The power to create peace or miscreate fear in regards to objects, ideas and beliefs was always with us to begin with.

So there’s a passage in the Bible where apparently Jesus said it was a sin and even adultery to have a lustful thought of a woman on the street and I want to explain why that doesn’t make sense.
First of all who is the audience? Secondly what is a thought?

Thoughts are constant streams of information that come and go. We don’t own thoughts and thoughts don’t own us. Streams of thoughts can come from our biology, our conditionings, our desires and more, however they are not us. They just represent aspects of what we are currently going through.

Having a thought can’t be a sin because you are before the thought was. It’s a stream of information from something that pertains to this life which is more empty space than it is matter (99.99999% empty space to be a little more exact). You are that which exists before and after the illusion of this temporary reality. You cannot be subjugate and controlled by something that doesn’t truly exist unless you choose to be, but that is your choice to make.

If a thought is temporary and doesn’t truly exist, how could it condemn you and cause you to sin? The idea of what is a sin and what it is not are created by us through systems such as society, family, and religions, and will die along the ideas and things we call sins such as an “evil thought” or so on.

Some people are attracted to people who mirror how they look.
Other people are attracted to people who look the opposite of how they do.
Both are valid expressions of attraction.
Creating morality out of sexual attraction is a reflection of ignorance.
Using your Bible to validate the Bible is a reflection of stupidity.
Using your Bible to defend a particular interpretation of the Bible which cannot be validated is also a reflection of stupidity.

I existed before this stream of thoughts. So if I am not my thoughts, am I really sinning if they come into my peripheral? Or are these thoughts just a representation of the environment, habits, what one has observed in the temporal world and so forth? A temporal stream of ideas represented by a temporal world?

So then why would a stream of thoughts that do not originate from within me because they are not my identity nor are they an extension of myself because they are temporal and I am eternal, be a sin?

Wouldn’t the actual issue be me which is eternal, identifying with a stream of thoughts (temporal) and believing it is who I truly am or represents who I truly am? Wouldn’t the real mistake be thinking something that is temporal is truly me who is eternal?
