I'm not quite certain what you mean by this. I'm not certain what you are referring to when you talk about your "situation" and I'm not certain as to what effect a difference in that would cause.
What's the point in arguing against watching it? It's not offensive or anything, it's informational... information has always been the Achilles heel of religion though.....
Stigmata are unproven (and have pretty good secular explainations) and weeping statues are all but completely disproven.
This would depend on what sense you are applying to what we know. In an epistomological sense, nothing can be claimed as true except the existence of our own minds and that's it. If you accept the bare minimum outside of that (which is that would empirical senses give us accurate information a majority of the time) then a majority of what we sense and what conclusions we arrive to based on those experiences can be claimed as true. Now the way that I see it, anything above that (the supernatural or divine) is all based on nothing except wild speculation, lies, and/or highly inaccurate or unproven conclusions.
I'm always saddened when people say such things, it's complete ignorance to completely remove all doubt that you may be wrong about something. Worst of all I find it to be very egotistical and conditions people towards being conceited and pretentious. I also see a flaw in this statement, your notions that your possible delusions are simply delusions are destroyed by possible delusions.
You could just have an inferiority complex which leads you to underestimating yourself and when added to your belief in a deity leads you to transferring your actual value to your idea of a deity?
Could you elaborate on a specific time in which this has occurred (you can list multiple times if you want). Please include what your original opinion(s) was(were), what specifically made you alter your original opinions and why, and what your new opinions became. This is of course just a request, while reviewing this part i felt that it might come across as a little demanding with all of the specific guidelines that I requested.
No, your still not understanding this...

If you know we follow God, the message is not meant for us...The message is for others...
What is the MESSAGE?![]()
What GOD are you FOLLOWING?![]()
The GOD of your DREAMS and VISIONS?![]()
Because you PRESUME to be AWAKE does not make it so...![]()
But yet you feel the need to preach and bring on the rapture to everyone...When not everyone is going to be punished at the end times...(just reread your Bible)

Since you clearly do not understand this...I do not even believe your the 2 last Prophets, or witnesses, For I know who, and what I am...and that destroys your notion of being the last 2 left...
So, WHO or WHAT are YOU?![]()
According to the Bible, the world will end once flood, once by fire, once by man, then the final battle (Armageddon) according to most Bible scholars the world hasn't even ended by fire yet...
The world will end by FIRE...LIGHT
...ILLUMINATION
...
So we have probably thousands of years before the final battle...With the world being re-procreated each time...
Huh?weird you get that?

There is way to much stack-able evidence that goes against you being the 2 witnesses left on Earth...
Stack-able evidence,or **** getten DEEP?

While I do believe we are close to another ending, It is not the Final battle yet...I have said this maybe 3 times to you already and will say again...that time is not upon us now...You do not recognize it by the signs....Not any faithful person believes your the 2 left....and even your story shrouds out from what the Bible claims...So like I said, for you 2 to be the 2 witnesses, not many people will be saved at all....When the Bible claims...All these things which have yet to happen....And even in the end times, some will be saved...Your depictions show that none will make it or be saved from the rapture...What kind of God do you "think" you promote? One of Love? Or one of vengeance??
VENGEANCEis about to come upon the EARTH,
the EARTH will SEE
God's FACE

God is the reality of it all, Satan is the figment of his own imagination, within the imagination of the mind.
you could claim that a man's mind is corrupt by the Devil
CREATED by, the ILLUSIONIST of the MIND.
He is reality , logic, and reason, in DARKNESS.
GOD is LIGHT, in HIM is NO DARKNESS.
We are COMPLETE in HIM.
People are already wound up, tighter than an 8 day CLOCK...
I want to show, how to chill, how to BE...
I am sure XXS will agree, is something his God wouldn't do.
"Situation" as in different lifestyle, Livelihood, embracing, teachings, followings, experiences, than a man explaining what he "thinks is going on" in his video...
]Nothing...Just that I think before hand, that what he explains will not be 100% accurate with my life, and experiences...
What is this secular explanation? Since they all give glory to God...And how are weeping statues all but completely dis-proven? Is it dis-proven because you "think it is"?
But it doesn't make them false, or unreal...Or fake...You choose to believe that, but you could very well be wrong about it...
What kind of person would fabricate such a delusion of going to the pits of Hell? Do we not all feel like were right 90+ % of the time? Why then am I going there? Who is orchestrating me to go? Why would I orchestrate to go there myself, if we all believe were mostly right? Do you see the problems I have with what you typed above about my experiences??
You could just have an inferiority complex which leads you to underestimating yourself and when added to your belief in a deity leads you to transferring your actual value to your idea of a deity?
Does that not equal = truth behind God?? Seems like I am one cunning manipulative son of a bitch to do that over speaking the truth, and God being responsible for the actions/outcomes...
I really can't...The list would be way too long...and it happens all the time all day long...
I will give you an easy one...I thought to come on here and preach the words of God boldly...
Then God had revealed to me, that their are plenty who do that, there isn't a necessary For that to take place here...Whatever I wish to reap 100 fold in Jesus name, Is what I sow out...Be kind and patient, and embracing, loving, merciful, accepting, peaceful, because that is what I need from God, and what he would do himself if he was here preaching...
I will give you another one, which shows I am applying what God said...And applies directly to you...I knew my vocab was bad, and even said it was...After, you were the one who made mention of how bad it was...I said I would get a spell-checker so that you didn't have to see the mistakes any longer, and I followed thru...God compelled me to do and say what an atheist said, because it was right for me to do, and helped me, and them out in the process.... Something I wasn't thinking of, nor smart enough to orchestrate, and the test, was passed and the end result...was better for everyone...Honestly, me myself, in that situation, when we were arguing, I probably would have said, no, I do not want to change, deal with it...But I did not...God, saw the Holiness, power, and unity it would bring between us, and others if I did so...There is no saying a Prophet can't learn from others...Their minds are keen and receptive, and perceptive for perfect appropriate situations...Yet, God spoke and told me to do it...Which I did, and I bet it is probably forgotten by a lot of posters...

I'm afraid I don't understand how this really has any effect on the topic at hand? Are you just trying to throw up smokescreen arguments to avoid watching this video or something? It's been posted for like a month and you have yet to watch it. This tells me that you are either highly against it or have your mind made up that you aren't going to watch it and are just playing games. If you aren't going to watch it then just man up and say it.
I could have told you that, he does go over all the specific psychological processes the sheds light on why people believe in gods and believe they have visions and such. You can speculate what ever you want beforehand but you'll never know until you watch it. The only reason that I can speculate as to your persistant refraint from watching this video is fear that your last leg that you have to really stand on (from an argument stand point) would be swept away (your alleged visions and experiences). If I'm wrong in that speculation or there's some other reason please inform me.
Stigmata can be explained through hysterical origins or dissociative identity disorders. Basically if people aren't intentionally faking it, it's probably due to unconscious self-mutilation through abnormal autosuggestibility or something along those lines.
As far as "weeping" statues, there are several but my favorite is when you simply apply the same set up of a fountain to a statue and TA-DA you have a crying statue! I do encourage you to research this more however as there are several other explainations that I haven't meantioned as well as there are site that go into greater detail on the explainations that I have given and examples of disproven events (such as Vincenzo Di Costanzo going on trial in 2008 for placing his own blood on a statue of The Virgin Mary in his church in northern Italy).
This begging the question is really getting old. I've pointed out several of the numerous fallacies of this argument yet you persist in using it as it actually has weight here. A rational mind views truth through plausibility and not possibility.
What kind of person would mutilate their own body but claim that it came from supernatural origins?
I believe that you should feel as though you are right 100% of the time but be open to the idea that anything that you believe or say could be wrong. To blindly assert that you are right by means of avoiding or denying anything that contradicts what you say is disingenuous.
I'm not sure what you mean by "truth behind god" but I'm fairly certain that my answer would be no regardless of what you specifically mean. Just because you attribute certain event's, actions, personal abilities, etc. to something, doesn't mean that somemthing exists or works in that manner.
Many people believe in lucky rabbits feet and will attribute good fortune to it if they have it and attribute misfortune to it if they don't have it. This doesn't mean that the rabbit's foot actually has an effect on anything. As far as your comments on your being "cunning" and "manipulative", inferiority complex's are generally unconscious mental conditions thata you aren't actively aware of.
So you may consciously feel as though you are at your limits of this pathetic being and are conditioned to subconsciously apply your true abilities to that of your cultural deity much like that of a lucky rabbit's foot?
Ummm...not to sound like a smart aleck or anything but that sounds like everyday, ordinary thinking to me. In your second example you say that you were not smart enough to orchestrate or think of your grammatical errors, to me, this just sounds as though you were unaware of this. I brought the issue to your attention and it started that "supernatural" and "divine" process...
I do open my mind, it just is that the things I am certain about are the things your not, and vice versa...that does not mean either of us are being disingenuous...It just means we have different life experiences to compare the actions/results/thoughts etc....and have come to different summarizations....
Kinda tired of the analogies of a Spaghetti Monster, and rabbit's foot...I understand what you saying and mean...But God is Limitless, nothing impossible, and incomprehensible...(If real) it is completely different, on all levels....
Nope...
God empowers me in a Good way...and sometimes I feel the burn or wrath...Like I said....that would be one twisted, manipulative way or orchestrating of the mind, without being consciously aware of it if you right...
I do not believe people would do that, twist things like that, or think that way without God truly doing it....and making people aware of his ways...And the beneficial reasons behind unexplained actions...Or the Devil is the one manipulating minds...So either way to me = truth to Jesus...
No, it is not everyday thinking...You misinterpreted what I said...It is not the basis of which the things were done not done...ie...knowing of grammatical errors...It is the opening up, and accepting of God's words to do things I do not believe in my heart and mind are right, or I should have to do...
I did not believe I should do anything but preach boldly, till God revealed why to me...
If not true...Would you think of that on your own? And go against the Bible, or what clergy say?? To promote God, and tell the truth from his side of things?? (if he is real, and you believed in him)
And also, I was aware of the grammar mistakes....I said I was...I said I did not feel the need to change at all...till I met you, and we talked about it...a few jerks slammed me about it...and it jaded me from doing it...When you said it, it hit home...The action of God saying, he (you) are against me in belief, but am still right, your (me) better than that, and should do it (get the spell-check) ...Should hit home to you, and what kind of God I embrace, exactly...
