If God is somehow “everything and nothing,” this indicates a failure of human language. True faith in God is silent and internal. It’s the need to project this faith on to others that has led to eons of misery.
The sooner you remove emotional responses to ideas and occurrences, the faster you can improve the quality of your life.
Replying to @NoticingEgo
As a man, you must be in the driver’s seat and view your emotions objectively. You are not your emotions, you are merely an observer.
Take back control and don’t let them direct the way you feel.
The “truth,” if there is such a thing, doesn’t win or lose. It’s human ego that creates that notion.
And more importantly, why do you care?
Seriously why do you care about what another person “announces”?
Idol worship or projection of inner hate is the road away from your true self.
Too often our ego has us believing we need to be somewhere, on some path, but what if we ARE the path?
Our being is not defined by going somewhere outside of us, but by steadily becoming who we are.
It’s one thing to be informed, but if you’re basing all your supposed knowledge on the words and accounts of others, what do you really know besides what you were told?
When you begin trying to think solely for yourself you realize:
How little you know and how little you need to know.

A person as an identity is a fraud whereas the ideas underneath it are the goldmines.
Only carry the ideas with you do not associate it with a person, institutions or an authority.

Thanks for bringing attention to these sinister environmental factors
And surely men’s underwear with a tight little pocket for your loins is not in our best interest… 😬

Jealousy is showing us what traits we desire in others or what we want for ourselves in our own lives.
Pay attention. Jealousy is a teacher.
