It seems like my next step is getting to know my neighbors.
I was going to buy iced tea and visit on the week ends.
I could have done it sooner but i was distracted.
I mostly visit with the mormon missionaries.
This may eventually change once i get more contacts.
I shared food with the missionaries.
Once i made rice for them, with veggie and mushroom sauce.
Next I gave them double clam chowder.
I may share more food with them later on.
I’ve been to my local Buddhist Centre, where members are encouraged to bring (vegetarian) food to share for during the lunch break… contributing to a like-minded community manifests ones feel-goods. I must go back… I said I would… I am leaving it for far too long to do so.
My neighbour’s also do this… our neighborly spirit is strong.
We may call god, I am, and yes mean ourselves, but the longer definition is the best rules and laws to live life with.
Gnostic Christianity uses some of the bible and quotes from Jesus and perhaps it would draw more Christians looking to get away from their genocidal satanic god and a more moral religion.
IOW, you would be offering an easier transition for those who still hold a tribal need or want.
Churches exist to speak to large amounts of people live.
Email costs much less to upkeep than a church.
There for the RR church will use email to spread teachings and fellowship.
Text and audio files sent via email.
Welcome to the conversation club of Right Reason.
My email is : danzorz42@gmail.com
I want to start a “religion”.
But obviously I don’t want to make a false religion.
So for now, the first step, is to help form a congregation.
Who likes to have someone to talk to?
So it is called a conversation club.
Building churches can cost millions of dollars.But that was before we even had the internet.
We can reach 100 people in a few minutes via email.So, tell me what you’re looking for.
I will be handing out sheets for now.Thank you for your time.
It would be great later if you had any emails for the group, too.
[I am going to print these at the library tomorrow.]
How can we realize what is best?
Some christians would cut strait to the source: God is the best, biggest, smartest, etc.
Without God what comes up second-place?
Life on earth, i would say.
Life is more frightening when God is gone.
Death can be accepted. Pain can be accepted.
But these things are not desirable.
If all life on earth suffered greatly, life would be a hell-like experience.
Death would be preferable in that case.
Pleasant life calls to us to embrace what we have.
Happy life is the preference over death and pain.
I’m not sure i know where i am going with this.
I posted it anyway.
Jesus saw heaven when he looked at life on earth. So do I. Jesus does say that there are few of us who will see it.
It is demonstrable that we live in the only possible world. It thus must be the best of all possible worlds, given our history.
Sure we all have a wish list to improve things but that does not refute the premise I put.
Look around and see how well off we all are. To the point where only the minority will have any real problems in life.
Things have been really improving for the last 50 to 70 years but we have been on an upwards swing for 200 years. Poverty is almost a thing of the past, for instance, as we have pulled a billion over the poverty line in the last 20 years and they estimate we will do the same in the next 20 years.
