If you take your validation from authority (parents, teachers etc) deciding that the voice in your head is God, rather than just , well , you, is a way of vindicating youself by the highest authority.Steve Bowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15243178223616240845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6900870923576954613.post-65512737064287372192010-02-03T22:20:35.501+00:002010-02-03T22:20:35.501+00:00I think it's just an excuse for grown ups to h...I think it's just an excuse for grown ups to have and imaginary friend, maybe they are suffering childhood regression, or maybe they are just plain crazy. This is their way of hiding the fact that they secretly talk to a made up person or even themselves in order to have the will to live and feel they have to inflict their belief on others to make sure they are not the only ones that talk to invisible, supernatural beings.Kiznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6900870923576954613.post-88387602569565132192010-01-18T12:20:33.934+00:002010-01-18T12:20:33.934+00:00So what do we have to do to get our "backs ru...So what do we have to do to get our "backs rubbed" do you think? People who believe in God manage to "see" and "hear" him everywhere. More interestingly, whenever God talks to them he always seems to agree with their opinions, no matter how bizarre or loathsome they may be... funny that.Steve Bowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15243178223616240845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6900870923576954613.post-51176744763264209832010-01-15T11:13:14.579+00:002010-01-15T11:13:14.579+00:00My brother JD told me a couple years ago that God ...My brother JD told me a couple years ago that God wants to have a relationship with me. I asked him why God never calls, never writes, never buys me flowers, never offers to buy me dinner or drive me to work, never gives me a back rub or even a hug, he never really makes his presence known for me. Far from me pining after my object of affection ("He doesn't even know I exist!"), this is just the other way 'round.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02636891151357416715noreply@blogger.com
