yes. before i asked jesus into my heart and renewed my thinking through his word, i was bitter like you.
back in the day i would curse god and feel sorry for myself and my situation in life- just like you. i would call people names like- weasel, in an effort to make myself feel better - lol
now i try and love my neighbors- even if they are a wally -lol
My bad.....what we're seeing is the new and improved turd, lol.
you don't know that if been the same old turd-lol - that's just you thinking you know everything. wally the know it all.
How does that happen when you pray to the same idol every day? You have been doing this all your life and you are still the same ol' turd. Only by letting go of such things can you truly be renewed.
Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
Philippians 4:6-9
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and BRINGING INTO CAPTIVITY EVERY THOUGHT to the obedience of Christ ...
2 Corinthians 10:5
Forget the past, think forward, be thus minded.
Philippians 3:13-16
Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 1:13
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
2 Timothy 1:7
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
Romans 8:5
And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of Him that created him.
Colossians 3:10
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 2:5
For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
2 Corinthians 4:16
RENEW YOUR MIND
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:2

Further thoughts on The Guardian...........
"I'm going to tell you about the tonal (pronounced, toh-na'hl) and the nagual (pronounced, nah-wa'hl). Every human being has two sides, two separate entities, two counterparts which become operative at the moment of birth; one is called the "tonal" and the other the "nagual."
The tonal is the social person. The tonal is, rightfully so, a protector, a guardian--a guardian that most of the time turns into a guard.
The tonal is the organizer of the world. Perhaps the best way of describing its monumental work is to say that on its shoulders rests the task of setting the chaos of the world in order. It is not farfetched to maintain, as sorcerers do, that everything we know and do as men is the work of the tonal . At this moment, for instance, what is engaged in trying to make sense out of our conversation is your tonal ; without it there would be only weird sounds and grimaces and you wouldn't understand a thing of what I'm saying.
I would say then that the tonal is a guardian that protects something priceless, our very being. Therefore, an inherent quality of the tonal is to be cagey and jealous of its doings. And since its doings are by far the most important part of our lives, it is no wonder that it eventually changes, in every one of us, from a guardian into a guard. A guardian is broad-minded and understanding. A guard, on the other hand, is a vigilante, narrow-minded and most of the time despotic. I say, then, that the tonal in all of us has been made into a petty and despotic guard when it should be a broad-minded guardian".
Don Juan Matus
"How" implies a method...........
"Try to be, only to be. The all-important word is 'try'. Allot enough time daily for sitting quietly and trying, just trying, to go beyond the personality, with its addictions and obsessions. Don't ask how, it cannot be explained. You just keep on trying until you succeed. If you persevere, there can be no failure. What matters supremely is sincerity, earnestness; you must really have had surfeit of being the person you are, now see the urgent need of being free of this unnecessary self-identification with a bundle of memories and habits. This steady resistance against the unnecessary is the secret of success."

Guardian or Dweller on the Threshold
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dweller_on_the_threshold#According_to_Theosophy
It seems to me that the real problem is the mind itself, and not the problem which the mind has created and tries to solve. If the mind is petty, small, narrow, limited, however great and complex the problem may be, the mind approaches that problem in terms of its own pettiness. If I have a little mind and I think of God, the God of my thinking will be a little God, though I may clothe him with grandeur, beauty, wisdom, and all the rest of it. It is the same with the problem of existence, the problem of bread, the problem of love, the problem of sex, the problem of relationship, the problem of death. These are all enormous problems, and we approach them with a small mind; we try to resolve them with a mind that is very limited. Though it has extraordinary capacities and is capable of invention, of subtle, cunning thought, the mind is still petty. It may be able to quote Marx, or the Gita, or some other religious book, but it is still a small mind, and a small mind confronted with a complex problem can only translate that problem in terms of itself, and therefore the problem, the misery increases. So the question is: Can the mind that is small, petty, be transformed into something which is not bound by its own limitations?

You got Etrade?
yes, a pity that I'm not familiar with options to go short on it.
You watching the FB train wreck?
Lol I just need 1!
3 to go; maybe a tip for Chloe.
More Henry 8th.......he just married his 3rd wife. What a great series.
that is true, but i do love you - lol
ok big man-you are a legend in your own mind- congratulations.
and with you as judge you win every debate- double congratulations - lol
G'nite little fella. Even with one hand behind my back you're no match and never will be.
that's right - whine , piss and cuss- i have 15min whether you like it or not.
You're STILL editing the fucker, lol.
Heh....you don't like me, "Love Your Neighbor", lmao.
Hard to have an timely conversation if you keep editing the meaning away.
i'll move on either when 1)you move on or 2) you ban me.
and let me guess, i have lost this debate- lol
You think you're slick....roflmao
Now...I think we've gotten to as far as we're gonna get. For the good of the board, I suggest you move on.
yep that's the post i read- to me multipler is no different than a lot of posters on this board- oh there is one difference- he did rub you the wrong way (and he lost the debate and didn't admit it-lol) - therefor he's got to go.
Oh no....we're not gonna start this shit again today. You walk into the room swinging your dick around....challenging someone to cut it off. Well...it's been handed to you on a platter.
Let me make this perfectly clear to you. Whether your "God" exists, or any "God" for that matter, can perhaps be proven to one's self, but certainly not to another person. You admit that yourself. As you said. "Well I can't pull him outta the heavens for you." That should be the end of story. It's an argument that everyone knows ya can't win, because what you believe is based on faith....I've been told that many times..... and yet here you are playing the fool......making claims you can't back up...."I take on any Challengers"...."I'll shred you to pieces". Maybe you can succeed with others that share your fantasy, but you're in the real world here.
The examples you gave are shared by many....the Jews, the Muslims, the Buddhists to some degree....almost ANYONE that isn't an atheist. I asked you to prove YOUR "God"....the "God" of the bible is THE God, and you haven't because unless someone accepts the bible as the the unerring Word of God (and that is my position.....that it isn't).....you can't!
As far as my contribution....you never asked. I've been making it here since the start of this board.....ask anyone. It's just another of your diversions. Most people get to know the posters on a board before they stomp in talkin' shit. You wanna talk about the REAL God......we can do that.
I think I've made my point.
More importantly....pay close attention.........NOBODY....and I mean NOBODY, walks into my house or my friend's house looking down their nose and issuing challenges. Talk TO people not AT them. Earn some cred. No more of your childish taunts, bluster and categorical statements.....have a conversation......stop with the name calling and arrogance. You're new here......we all have different opinions......show some respect. Calling people "heretics" is not a design to further conversation.
Get it?....if not.... get out. Take a couple of days off to think about what I'm saying. Then come back and post as you please but without the attitude.
Ok..........either you didn't follow the conversation or you're just being argumentative. In either case I've had enough of this. Read this again and see where I paraphrased YOU!

Have a nice nite.
then quit asking the same question. because you are going to get the same answer. just reread my answer post #20843
if everyone that was an asshole was banned from posting on this board- there would be but only a few posters- me and you wouldn't be one of them.
And to your first part
he lost the debate? who was judge?
'Cause he was an asshole.....nothing to do with being Catholic.
Since you don't relaste to the meaning behind profane words, I'll spell it out for ya....again.
He lost the debate before it even started and then wouldn't own up to it. As I said here....
chloe has always had a free for all management style- and it worked well. why silence the catholic?
What's really your beef, Luvvy? Seems to me you're just posturing.
i did ban chloe once- when i was a mod here for a brief time- and that was funny!!
.....god is love. 1 John 4:8
not on a discussion board- try and keep it straight.
since i've been posting here (up until a few days ago) you've always managed this board like a free for all. if you want to change the way you manage it- i can understand.
Did he really?....big LOL! Nevermind,,,,,I thought you meant here.
Wall expressed his arguments on the board.
I think that me, Chloe and Wall are at the same side of the line in this matter.
Lol you banned JLL! Sad!
