ola,

prosleytize?

Would you quit that chit.

Now I have another word to research.

Are you using a thesaurus, you rascal you?


Have fun,
Phil

Edit:

pros·e·ly·tize Pronunciation Key (prs-l-tz)
v. pros·e·ly·tized, pros·e·ly·tiz·ing, pros·e·ly·tiz·es
v. intr.
To induce someone to convert to one's own religious faith.

Now I can go to bed. I learned something new today. Thank you, "maker".

Later,
Phil

P.S.S.

BTW, it appears you misspelled it, "maker".

The only thing that can allow our small minds to even approach God is God himself. You seem to think my position is one of arrogance but you will notice the use of the word "our" in the above sentence. I am merely one of the seething masses as are you. Nothing in this world or the next comes without a price. The price for eternal freedom should be large. Only one out of a thousand will even question their eternal position. Only one out of a thousand of these highly intelligent souls will begin the path to spiritual liberation. I am one of the people walking that path. It doesn't cost you any money. Only time, patience, and an eagerness to understand your role in this beautiful creation of our supreme lord. I don't think that you are foul in the eyes of my God. My God is your God by the way. Even if you try not to believe in him, he is still there, helping you along your path each and every time you allow him to do so. Are you pure of heart or not? Only you and God know the answer to that question. If you perceived my meaning as saying that you were not pure of heart, I am sorry. I believe that this is the sentence you were referring to:

The infinite nature of God is impossible to understand by the small minds of human beings so they must approach the study of God honestly and with a pure heart.

If this meant to you that I was specfically saying that you had a small mind and an unpure heart, then you misunderstood my intent. I was speaking in a mass generalization. All humans, myself included, have small minds and in our current position in this material plane of existence, it is extremely difficult to approach anything with a pure heart. The mind is as difficult as the wind to control and without the help of God, it simply can't be done. But when one approaches that stilled state of mind when nothing at all exists but you and God, you can sometimes catch a glimpse of absolute truth, your eternal nature, and your relationship with those around you. When you do catch this glimpse, all fear and doubt are erased and all you want to do is see more.
