Re: i need enlightenment?
Yes. I do not advocate it, and l never would even need to try it to see if it "works " because that could "invite " satan . Getting into me , with all due respect is not appropriate for me now but l enjoy sharing the Truth with others here in this format. Yes, in fact it does happen and it is documented in many police files. But no , l have not been involved in any such activities and l thank my Lord that l am the way l am and the Truth is near for me. Sincerely, Mooskee.

Re: i need enlightenment?
One thing fifth, in your ammendment you are still saying the same thing because in saying you can believe in any thing as long as it doesn't hurt anyone is again in -accurate because your interpretation of "hurting someone else " is guided by "your " beliefs which could incorporate pain as a wonderful thing so we go by the Truth and not our interpretation of the Truth . Sincerely, Mooskee.

I am saying that even if someone believes that Satanism is right for them, then they should follow that belief. You should always follow what you believe in, not just because others do. I'm not advocating blind faith, by all means please learn all you can about something before you choose to believe it, but if it is what you truly believe, then follow it with all your might. |

Re: i need enlightenment?
Accepting what you said as different is okay, however what kind of world would it be like if everyone thought that way . We would not have any justice if anyone did whatever they believed was right . There seems to be a somewhat internal belief that we all have a right to live in peace but if your beliefs hinder my rights to a healthy normal life then perhaps that belief may not be right even though you believe it is right for you. So there is a reason to follow a faith that is just and safe for all and not just what the believer believes is safe but what is actually safe. Why do you believe that ? Sincerely, Mooskee.
