Your intentions are irrelevant. Just apologize.

> I don't really believe in good and evil as absolute terms. Only good and bad from different perspectives. But sure, there may be other entities than God involved in my life and "pulling" me in different directions. Which reminds me of Freud's Eros and Thanatos -- the "love" and the "death" drives. And I have different alters with different personalities; it's possible they affect me in different ways. However, I've had experiences that were so grand that I feel it only makes sense to attribute them to God. Unless they were hallucinated experiences as part of a delirium. But I choose to believe.


How very pious of you.

I know that your words in this post are not directed at me specifically. However, they are directed to the community as a whole - which includes me. I find your pronouncements regarding our mutual existence to be at best pontificating and at worst presumptuously insulting. It is not your duty to change for me or anyone else. However, I suggest that you take into consideration how your words are likely to be received by others before you post them. Of course, my suggestions might be misguided, especially if I am experiencing the hyper-religiosity that scientists acknowledge can be an expression of a mixed-state dysphoric mania in the absence of euphoria.

I suggest that you don't waste any more of your poorly-chosen words on me if you direct those words to me personally. Your compulsion to demonstrate to everyone how "right" you always are is a character trait that leaves me doubting your value as a source of critical thinking, despite my considering you to be a valuable source of information.

I am fully aware that members of the Psycho-Babble community might see this. People will likely not find the tenor of my words to you to be endearing.


Some see things as they are and ask why.
I dream of things that never were and ask why not.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
