Who Hijacked Reality / #681 The process of the universe…

Journal Entry #681

August 8th, 2012

More so than not I am saying the same basic message at its core. I am trying as many ways as I can to get this across for discussion for verification and to just put it out there. I have come to the conclusion that this is the foundation and all else will flow from this in life, in our understanding and in the universe itself.

There is a process to life, a flow or the truth that to the best of our knowledge cannot be denied but understood and followed. We may not like it or understand most of it but that will not change it but only be part of it.

Recognition of this process as I call it;

The process of life, the flow cannot be denied.

Embrace it as it will take you places you have only dreamt of, only imagined and thought you would never experience.

Gary David Currie

 

Simplicity is the key to understanding… Understanding is the path to enjoying the process; the process is what we all must follow…

Gary David Currie

Now what that process involves is the journey of discovery but there are some very blatant things that we simply cannot deny and live to talk about. These are the obvious rules in the universe that our ancient ancestors acknowledged but probably did not understand.

All I do is point out the ones I discover and acknowledge and that others have as well while the vast majority of humanity denies them. It doesn’t really matter if they do or not again it will be part of the process.

Now I am not going to get into what the process entails at this time as it is vital to agree that the process exists before trying to understand it… Most will deny this as well. This simply is insanity, delusional and at best silly to engage in but humanity excels at these traits.

As I have said you are either all in or all out.. One foot in the water must lead to a choice of going in or getting out.

Denial of reality or the process causes the vast majority of our misery, our pain and our suffering. When we acknowledge the process we stand a better chance at happiness, less suffering and less pain. Why we continue to bring this upon ourselves is incredibly stupid.

So you will understand what I am referring to I will offer some examples and this will lead to the discussion on free will at some point.

We are bound by the rules of the universe. It is these rules that allow us to exist.

I will make it relatable;

We must eat, we must drink and we must sleep. We will grow old if we are lucky enough to be born and we will die at some point along the way. We are bound by these basic rules.

Nature will do as it will and pretending it will not do as it will, will not change it at all.

Now apply this to the rest of the universe….

The process will happen so I suggest you recognize it and your self induced fears will lessen, you self induced anger will lessen and you will recognize what life has to offer.

The universe will always seek balance

Once this is accepted the discussion is about figuring out these rules and how we fit into the process.

Seek the truth always

Who Hijacked Reality / #670 A nice door surprise from god.

Wednesday, June 13th, 2012

Journal Entry #670

June 12th, 2012

The other day as I was coming home from work I noticed this lovely leaflet in my door. I was so surprised and excited. Did they leave it for me personally? Did they want to talk with me and missed me? Well of course not as I saw a bunch of them blowing aimlessly down the street.

Well let’s have a look at what I was in for;

Cornerstone Baptist Church

  Ya another church and denomination because god just can’t seem to gather his flock into one religion, one doctrine and one ideology. You would think an all powerful god could get this at the very least right.

Our Mission – To lead people into a life changing relationship with god through Jesus Christ.

  Well it is good to have a direction but have these people really read their bible? Jesus and god are the same so you are creating a middleman that doesn’t exist here.

Life changing; well life changes all the time so no big deal on this one.

A relationship: Interesting what exactly is the relationship. Slave / owner, Battered wife and husband. Father that never relinquishes control or a pretend friend.

Really this mission is a bust because if god wants this he can take care of it himself and really doesn’t need the Cornerstone Baptist Church to do this.

Our vision – Reclaiming god’ people one family at a time…

Did god lose his claim on humanity at some point? One family at a time I guess those alone don’t count. This really is righteousness at a most disgusting level while being hidden with the air of love.. How about we first prove god even exists before we jump to all the pretend nonsense..

Our Purpose – we exist to glorify god..

Ok even if I bought into any of the other BS this is where I am laughing my ass off. Is god so insecure that he needs beings to exist just to glorify him? Come on how stupid is this. So based on the statement god created us as we exist just o worship him in all we do. How twisted is this?

Worship, worship and more worship and then more worship boy can’t wait for heaven.

The question is simple; If god exists why does he need humans to convert other humans?

Christians are relentless in their agenda… If they really knew their bible I would be put to death instead of being given a pamphlet;

Kill Nonbelievers

    They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.  (2 Chronicles
15:12-13 NAB)

Who Hijacked Reality / #652 One of the most ignorant quotes I have ever seen by Dusty Smith and I call bullshit on it.

Tuesday, May 29th, 2012

Journal Entry #652

May 28th, 2012 

Here is the quote and the person who said it. Now I have no problem with Dusty beyond this quote and I am strictly addressing this particular quote. I will link his website so you can see anything else he has written and made. Dusty is more than welcome to respond if he feels the need as I support his right to free speech and his views on life.

It pisses me off to no end when people say dumb shit like this but try and make it sound intelligent. This thought is truly not thought thru and leaves out so much that eludes to and I will address this as well as counter the stupidity disguised as intelligence in this quote.

“Nobody can “break your heart”. All that has happened is that the person who used to make your brain release pleasurable chemicals is no longer doing so and your brain is drug deprived. That person is not the only one capable of making your brain release those chemicals. Replace them and move on.”

Dusty Smith

http://www.cultofdusty.com

Now let us break this down and respond;

“Nobody can “break your heart”.

No shit it is a figure of speech representing an emotional connection that you have with another person.

 All that has happened is that the person who used to make your brain release pleasurable chemicals is no longer doing so and your brain is drug deprived.

I will agree with this but here is where we start to see problems. That is not all that has happened unless we are talking about a one night stand but of course this will not lead to heartbreak. You have now invested more than just a few chemical dependencies with this other person and based on the time frame that connection will deepen. When the connection is broken we know have many other chemicals released due to the feelings of betrayal rejection and other emotions beyond the feeling that love bring and I will go into this more later. SO really that is not all that has happened at all.

So if nobody can break your heart and it is completely up to you how you feel and what emotions you allow then when Dusty says that person who used to make your brain release chemicals is not true at all as you are the one who released those chemicals although it will be based on interaction with this other person., so a bit of a contradiction here.

That person is not the only one capable of making your brain release those chemicals.

That person did not do it at all you did it. So really you are the only one capable of releasing your chemicals as it is your choice.

Replace them and move on.”

Now this is the part that really pisses me off;

Replace them and move on, said as if it was easy as pie. You can never replace them as the relationship you had with them will be completely different than any other relationship. Now if we add to the mix children and all the other ripples that are created from this one relationship replacing them will be impossible. Of course if they are
not willing to be with you can’t force them but the process to move on will be intense as there is so much more involved than a few chemical reactions of pleasure as now we have so many other chemical reactions to deal with that are not pleasurable and they must be dealt with before one can feel pleasure again from another.

The ease at which Dusty eludes in doing this is ignorant.

 

Can you so easily replace a mother or a father of your children and now you must deal with children if you have any from this relationship. You relationship becomes so much more than a few chemical reactions as it becomes your identity, your life and the reason you live. You are a family and this can never be replaced so moving on is not just moving on as so many seem to think it is  when they tell others to just move on.

You have to go through the process of grieve the 5 steps of denial, bargaining, anger depression and acceptance as you are dealing with a loss in your life. This process will not be easy if you have any type of deep connection with this person and that is what your heart feels broken. You emotions have been twisted and turned around and this is no easy fix. Many do not get past the stages of grieve and stay in anger or denial and other combinations of these so replacing them and moving on is not an easy task in fact you will never replace them but you can move on with time.

Also along with this heartbreak will often com with physical and financial difficulties as well as the emotional component forcing one to completely start again and re-examine their life. Friends are often part of the couple and this all changes as well.

So it is not just a life that is affected but many life’s and their chemical reactions as well.

If we look at this from the point of view as a drug addict going cold turkey on their drug how can they replace this particular drug and why would they want to? They will have to go through the withdrawals and then deal with what happened before they can get off the drug or else they are just trading one addiction with another.

So it is not just replace them and move on at all and this is the ignorant part.  Id we want to break IT down to chemical reactions then we now have a huge mine field to get through as we know very little about the chemicals involved and their reactions with our emotions. So to try and equate this to science at this point is just a really bad guess. Hence the mixing of intelligence with stupidity in other words trying to sound smart when the smart person would not have said this at all. A little bit of information in
this case is a dangerous cocktail of ignorance.

I call complete bullshit on this quote by Dusty and if Dusty has broken up from a long-term relationship of say 25 years I doubt he would be saying this at all. I am sure the kids would love to hear that they are all part of a chemical reaction that can easily be replaced. I could be wrong and maybe he has and this is how he handled it but if he did he is in denial.

Breaking our lives down to be drugged or drug deprived is stupid as we know so little about the drugs that are our emotions. If he was following science as he eludes to he
would admit he knows very little on this one and would see the ignorance in his quote..

Moving on is a very difficult task and that person can never be replaced and that is reality.

Who Hijacked Reality / #643 Why I continue to speak out…

Wednesday, April 18th, 2012

Journal Entry #643

April 18th, 2012

My personal belief on god is this and I have said it many different times in many different ways. “ I don’t know”.

Truly this should be the answer for all and to pretend that you do know and have special access to the all knowing and then act on a set of rules  from this all knowing  entity is simply insane but many do engage in this insanity.

I will focus on a discussion I had with a person who started a group called “Born Again” from India. It seems that India and Africa is where Christianity is growing unchecked and completely unbalanced and this is where it becomes dangerous.

I will let the discussion speak for itself as it will be my best evidence for those I believe are thinking clearly to see what I am presenting. The righteous mind is a dangerous mind.

I will post the link to their page where they have amassed big numbers and continue to grow.

9,230 members…

https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/bornign

Born Again page on Face Book.

Now the person I am talking with is the founder of this group and actually invited me to join as they said so they could save me from my atheism and show all what devil atheism truly is. I like to play in the lions den and not preach to the choir so I accepted.

My original post and I even took out the swearing for them;

Gary David Currie

 I don’t know why but I get so mad and frustrated at how we treat each other but I do. There is no need for any of the terrible things we do to each other. I get so disgusted at humanity. We sit back and do nothing while so many suffer. What a pathetic species we are because we know better and do nothing. We continually hurt those we love and
ignore those we care nothing for.

We squabble over politics, religion and money, we engage in pathetic drama and self pity when all we have to do is just treat each other good and all this will not matter.

I am so frustrated…….Our apathy will be our undoing……

Jawahar Peter ……….when people deny their creator they become curse to other fellow humans. but they never repent of their atheism.

Classic line

Gary David Currie……….. Nice attitude. Sad for a god to be this way. By the way sounds like I care about humanity more than you do as you only care about your god. I am a human being first so quit with all this atheist labeling. There are no sides here. I actually thought you cared about your fellow man.

Jawahar Peter ….by acting kind hearted atheist, you create so many other atheists like you who can’t team up JESUS lovers. so many Islamic terrorists don’t allow Christian aid workers to reach fellow humans. u American atheists by your foolish ideology deny JESUS love on cross and resurrection to encourage Russian atheist leaders
to support Muslim terrorists.

Jawahar Peter … instead of criticising genuine love of JESUS and genuine Born again believers you can 1. believe in Lord Jesus and be Born Again 2. help us to criticise false infiltrated Satan agents like Benny Hinn Todd Bently who like parasites eat Christian aid money. then i can agree u are real human with kind heart ,until that time u are a hypocrite justifying your atheism which indirectly creating suffering for starvation deaths in Africa and elsewhere.

Gary David Currie……Jawahar Peter you know nothing about me. Ask Bappa Mukherjee who I am. I am not even American…You condemn me so easily..

Jawahar Peter  …you are not yet Born Again, that’s for sure. John2:25 JESUS did not need anyone to testify about man, for Jesus knew what was in man. it doesn’t matter u are American or not. you are human atheist denying Gods love on the cross thus dead in sin and are deceived by Satan. I pity u more than those starving in skin and bones. Many Born Agains were persecuted with hunger and perished in flesh but they are rich in Spirit. But u deny spirit and I pity u. but my prayer is u must be Born Again and be
our brother and co worker of Lord Jesus Holy Spirit to eradicate/minimise human suffering. if u don’t join Gods plans get delayed.

Gary David Currie….. See wrong again I did that years ago. Too many assumptions my friend..You think you are so righteous in you preaching and condemning others if you are what it means to be a Christian no thanks…

Jawahar Peter  …… Gary I could be wrong, its possible i am self righteous. but why don’t you become better than me by accepting Jesus as your Lord and saviour and then help so many starving people? Why you wanted to remain as a branded atheist and still wanted to appear good/righteous to others by posting about starvation deaths and thus appear as” LAST prostitutes and tax collectors and atheists are better than FIRST Pharisees and scribes “

Derek William Helberg …..Jawahar, have you not let the Spirit of our Lord guide you? Paul clearly writes in 1 Corintians 5: 11-13 for us not to judge those outside of
christianity. Matthew 10:14 and Mark 6: 11 tells us to dust off our shoes and walk away from those who do not welcome you, or listen to your words.

Gary David Currie  ….. Jawahar Peter you branded me an atheist as if it is some sort of disease. You cannot change me as I cannot change you so accept me where I am and see the good in me as I try to with you. Remember you asked me into this group I did not ask to join. I am a human being first and foremost and when it comes to Jesus or god my answer is simple ” I don’t know”. If you think you know then good for you but stop acting like the devil you think I am and telling me how right you are and how wrong I am. To be honest I am more like Jesus then you have ever shown you are.. Just stop all this judging nonsense.

Jawahar Peter…… you yourself told that you were an atheist. But Jesus paid the price on the cross or atheists also. I was also a foolish atheist for some time in my life. But I
confessed my sin and accepted Jesus as my Lord.

Jawahar Peter ….. its true Gary I invited you, so that me an ex-atheist can help a friend to come out of atheism. if u don’t like me or this group u are welcome to unjoin the group.

Gary David Currie …. Yes I am an atheist but only because I have no good reason to believe in god but that is my choice.. Like I said I concentrate on the good in someone not what you disagree with. Jawahar Peter you called me the devil and labeled me evil. What right do you have to do this. I fight for the rights of all every day. I look for the good in all and I champion the truth so how does this make me the devil.

Who are you to judge me? Leave this to your god and he and I will take care of our business… Like I said you know very little about me.

Gary David Currie…… If you don’t like me in this group you are welcome to delete me. Who do you think you are telling me that you are right and I am wrong? Let god do this not you…You job is not his job..

Gary David Currie…. By the way you missed the entire message of my post here in the beginning…So what does this say about you. Is this not common ground for us to work from?

Jawahar Peter…….. JESUS alone can be our common ground. We must be Born again. let the dead bury their starving dead but we must raise the spiritual dead atheists back to life with resurrection power

Jawahar Peter ….my privilege being Born Again is I am Gods co-worker and I am His child.

Jawahar Peter…. me missing your message is of not much importance compared to you missing JESUS.

and this says it all

Jawahar Peter …those who sit back and don’t worry about the suffering of Lord Jesus on the cross are of more cruel in heart than those who do lip service for African starving deaths.

Gary David Currie …. Actually I am professing the message of Jesus and you don’t even see it which is the sad part. The only thing we disagree on is the supernatural stuff. You are so wrapped up in your beliefs you cannot see beyond them in any way..

Jawahar Peter….. u believe a pseudo-Jesus ,not Born of Virgin, not suffered on cross and hence not resurrected. being an atheist for now you have all the beliefs of new age, Hindu, Islam, Buddhist assumptions. but to be our friend You must consider the Jesus who suffered on cross for your , mine and all humanity sin and rose again from
death. without that foundation your claim to further Jesus message is invalid.

Gary David Currie… sorry that you friendship requires I bow to your ways. I give my friendship for other reasons.. Really sad what you profess my friend and not Christ like at all..

Jawahar Peter ….apart from Christ all reasons are meaningless and temporary. we are eternal beings ,should talk eternal things. JESUS said we must be Born Again. why don’t u be more Christ like than me by being Born Again?

Gary David Currie….  Again you assume so much. I did this long ago when I was young. I have been baptized and according to the faith once done I am set for life. Also I know far more about your faith than you do I just chose to met others where they are at like Jesus would. You really are so wrapped up in what you believe you cannot see anything anyone else says. That is sad to me. This is what is wrong with Christianity today everything you are professing Jawahar Peter.. Very sad

This person is so deep in the chosen fantasy, so deluded that they cannot for a second even step outside of it to even listen to hear another. This is truly dangerous especially if they get a little power and influence behind them. This will lead to tragic consequences.

And this is an example of why I speak out to thwart the danger as best I can before it has tragic consequences. This is why we all must speak out.

Who Hijacked Reality / #622 The choices we make….

Friday, December 2nd, 2011

 

 

Journal Entry #622

December 2nd, 2011

Each day we all make many choices and sometimes we realize the consequences and sometimes we don’t but I do believe we will always do what we feel is best for us at that moment.

I believe we are limited in our choices as we have no control over what others do and what the natural world will do so we are confined within our view of the universe, of the planet and of the world that we surround our self with.

Delaying a choice is still a choice and once one realizes this it becomes easier to make choices that will have a better chance at positive results than negative. Often choices we make will decide the choices others must make and then they now must decide their options based on their inability to choose for others.

Life certainly seems complicated at times but if I can break it down I may offer to you that it really is simple. A problem or dilemma at times may seem overwhelming at times but if you are able to see the core or foundational choice that will determine either a problem being solved or continuing to be a problem then that will be the choice you make. From there you make choices in that direction.

This is what I see as the hard part for many; they do not see reality in the situation and if you are trying to include unrealistic options the choice will have unrealistic results.

Each problem we face is dealt with this system; At times we may bypass some steps very quickly but this will be the thought process. We may bounce back and forth between these steps or we may never get to the final step which will not allow the problem to be solved but nevertheless this will be the process. You can acknowledge this process which will give you a better chance at solving the problem or you can deny it and the problem will not be solved, your choice.

The 5 stages; Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance

http://grief.com/the-five-stages-of-grief

Now these stages are usually associated with loss and death but I do believe they have a much wider application and are vital in most problem solving. I must point as the article does that the stage of acceptance does not preclude everything being rosy and peachy it allows one to reach a stage where they can realistically deal with the problem and find a solution that will help them move on to the next daily event in life without carrying the weight of the previous problem. No matter what it is, no matter how big or how small this process is vital.

No one escapes this process, no matter how strong or confident you think you are we will all go through this and to recognize this as valid is a great start to a healthy mind which leads to a healthy life.

So realistically we need to get to a stage where we realize what we can control, what we have influence over and what we do not. This has been offered in many different ways from many different cultures in the form of prayer, affirmations and just general wisdom and to deny this process is unrealistic and the first part of the process.

Find those that can guide you, help you and have your best interests at heart and this will help you get through the process and onto the next stage of your life.

Personally I try and be as realistic and rational as possible and when faced with problems I acknowledge this process as true and do my very best to work my way through it.

Life is not fair, we do not always get what we want in fact I would say most of the time we don’t but the idea is to find the best possible happiness. How you do this will be your journey and how I do it will be mine I just hope we all have a great journey along the way.

So think about your choices carefully and the consequences of that choice both negative and positive before you make it but remember once a choice is made it cannot be unmade.

“Life is like licking honey from a thorn”

Seek the truth always
