rofl energy cannot be destroyed, only changed. change can create the illusion of destruction, for example, shattered plates. the plates were never destroyed, just changed to more pieces.
energy is much the same, the only "destruction" of energy would be fracturing it and displacing the fragments.
[quote=IanCurtisWishlist]I prefer the first part of that quote. It says "Love the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind and strength". If people can say that they love Jesus that way, then I have no issue with them.Quote:

And what if they don't say that, Richie? What issue would you take with them? People come to G-d on thier own time, and not every religion holds Jesus as being G-d incarnate. What if they do everything right according to scripture in heart, but never come to view Christ as Messiah? What then?Quote:

To those who believe in reincarnation:
If you don't remember what happens between when you die and when you are reborn, how do you know about it? Honestly, I think reincarnation would be bitchin, but I don't see any evidence for it. So I would really appreciate it if you could somehow explain to me how you came to believe in reincarnation.
just a guess for me, lol! or maybe a hope; I haven't figured it out yet...
i've heard of people who have succeeded in remembering their spiritual past, and past lives, and as i understand it takes a lot of practice, meditation, and possibly even astral projection experience.
i believe it is logically possible, but not entirely universally true, though universally true through eternity lasts forever, eventually you'll get bored and live another life.
I think if you sat around in a dark room meditating for a few years trying to make "astral projections" you might "remember" all kinds of crazy shit. Prolly more if you got some danky dank in dat room...Quote:

the stark truth is that you dont. your perceptions are all in your mind, and your perceptions are all that you have, what you deem real is a matter of opinion.
A matter of opinion, sure. But you still rely on the same truths about the world you live in that I do. You still know that every day when you swing your legs out of bed they're gonna hit the floor, not fly through it. That is not opinion, that is real. Dress it up however you want, that is real and you know it.Quote:

If you're frying acid, and come up with some brilliant explanation for the formation of waves in water... whatever shit you spout about particle streams being dragged around by the great magnet of life is bullSHIT. Sure, it seems like it makes a hell of a lot of sense at the time, but that's only in your head. When you're no longer frying, you look at what you said and know it's absolute bullshit.
If it's all in your head, and it occurs during a state of altered consciousness, take it with a bucket of salt.
And yes, that meditation is causing an altered state of consciousness. So does fasting. So do drugs (alcohol, caffeine, peyote, weed, shrooms, choose your poison).
If I told you there was a drug that could make you reexperience past lives, would you think that it was false and created only by the drug, or would you think it was real?
