[QUOTE="JimRinX, post: 99181, member: 6872"] I wish I'd seen this earlier; as always, it's yet another thought provoking Thread by the venerable aaad002 ji! If you read my Introducing Myself Item, you'll know that I have one serious objection to the idea that it's "all in our heads"; and that would be the FACT that I, shortly after awakening from a 'Transcendant Experience', discovered a White Streak had 'appeared, as if my Magic - or Miracle' in my Hair!!!! No Neuropsychological manifestations, which - by the way - I'm very familiar with the theories regarding thereof (I read New Scientist, Sceintific American, Science, Nature, Physics Today, etc..), required to explain that one!:D Don't let those Atheist Sceintists fool you! God is REAL! The fact that certain lucky (HA! It's more like 'cursed'!) people, have been granted an audience - in the formless realm of the Clear Light, The Spirit, The Soul, The Whatever - is also quite real. The only other way that this could have happened to me, is if someone had invented a 'Dr. Beverly Crusher-grade' Star Trek Medical Transporter; as only such a fictional device could have removed the Melanin Molecules that color our hair - leaving behind the white Keratin Protein matrice from which our hair is constructed, while simultaneously adjusting the Epigenetic Markers (Methylation Groups) on the Chromosomes of the Cells in my Hair Folicules (just the small bundle of them directly above and in-between my eyes) that would have otherwise 'instructed' those Folicules to continue to grow Hair that was Dark Blond - instead of White; as the small bundle of Hairs that God changed to bolster my Faith in Hirm, have continued to grow White all the rest of my life so far!!! As far as 'Selfishness' is concerned; could YOU betray Gods exhortations to be as Self-LESS as possible, if that had happened to you??? I don't "Fear God" - I just know that I'd feel awfully STUPID if, after I've died the final death, I were to stand before Hirm to be 'judged', and Hirm were to decide that I had not Done My Very Best to be the kind of Person whom Hirm would be pleased with Itself for having made such a Revelation to!!! It's become a Weighty Task indeed, during the last eight years! Some followers of The Prince of Peace think I'm "crazy" - or in League with Satan! They used 'Memory Reversion' to prove that it happened, you see; and in their view, if [I]something[/I] made my Hair turn White like that - and it didn't tell me to Read My Bible ands Obey the Pope, then it [B][I]must [/I][/B]have been 'Satan'. I'd suggest that you read the Christain New Testaments "Book of Revelations" , if you'd like to know more about why they'd think this way; and to remember that I was raised as a Catholic! It's the last part of the Christian Bible, and since it has all that "Armagedon/Doomsday/Final Judgement" **** in it, a Wise Sikh living in America (or with American Foreign Policies!) would be wise to get a firm grip on these peoples mindset; as many of them actually WANT the 'World to End'!!! It's easier to keep the SUV - and tell yourself that 'God sent his Only Son to die for YOU', and that your Sin of being a Poluter was thus somehow 'absoved' by this very un-selfish act of untold suffering - than it is to make the changes in your lifestyle that are necessary to be Truly Blessed in Hirms Eyes!!! This kind of thing is why I left the Christian Faith behind! Despite my Strong Feelings about this subject; I would, nonetheless, like to recommend reading the book, 'God is NOT Great' by Christopher Hitchens, anyway; as, though he is an avered Atheist, he offers some Real Perspective to those of us living in our increasingly fanatical world!:advocate: [/QUOTE]
