You can find all the answers in one place! again in my opinion questions are universal...answers are personal. What works for one person, may not work for another. Lets keep our minds open, shall we? Here we go again. I have to say my mind is wide open. Open the the truth, new opportunities, and many more possibilities. Even friendships I happen to believe in something more strongly than others - but it doesn't mean I don't share similiar interests or turn my head to thier ideas. Quote

Perhaps not more strongly kitten, perhaps just a diffrent lable or title or name for it. My faith is very stong but my faith is my own. I don't need others to believe how I beileve. Quote
kitten Posted July 9, 2003 Posted July 9, 2003 When you feel stongly about something - is it not something you would want to share? I don't push my faith on anyone, but I express it freely. It is mine - it is personal - it is a gift. Quote

I am more than willing to talk about what I believe, but I do not expect others to share my beliefs, but to think for themselves and figure out what they believe.

For all the non-believers out there, I say thank you! If I have one more Baptist, Mormon or Four Square try to convert me, I'm going to kill someone. I swear. Discussion = good. Conversion = bad.

Greg_W Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 kitten said: But forgiveness and love are selfless acts. If you can do these two things after being hurt - it is selfless. Only when there are no expectations attached. I may regret bringing this back up, but what the hell. Again, I will say that the definition of 'selfless' and 'selfish' have been bastardized; mainly by mainstream religion. What is the 'self'? It is your essence, your mind, your spirit; those unique things that make up YOU. To be selfless would be to deny those things. True 'selflessness' is denial of your mind and a betrayal of that which makes up your set of ideals and precepts. If it is within your person to be forgiving, that is not selfless, it is selfish; defining 'selfish' as being true to yourself and your ideals. In your example, regardless of expectations, one stands to gain, or hopes to gain, some benefit from their action of forgiveness. Yes? Therefore, forgiveness is a selfish act. There is nothing wrong with selfishness when defined this way. 'Society' (another dubiously bastardized word) has taken it's own meaning of 'selfish' and preached the evils of living for yourself instead of some ethereal 'greater good' of all people. Quote

sk Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 I would say something back... but I agree with you. All action, thought, feeling comes from the self. if you deney self you deny ALL. Quote
