WOTMQ: The Crisis of Meaning
People still embracing religion can't imagine a life of unbelief which is also filled with meaning and purpose. They've been so brainwashed to think that a religious worldview is the only way to find that meaning, they think we're all drowning in hopelessness and despair. And yet, when you really look into the offerings of religion — in terms of the meaning and purpose they allegedly provide, there's very little there. And certainly nothing that makes sense in the long run.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! Now, enjoy damnit!!! B

I still haven't heard from one of these apologists what that meaning is. You'd think that if it is so effing special they would have it plastered all over their websites.
Ya know, if the Mormons are destined to become gods, then what's the odds that the god they worship used to be some ignorant follower in a previous universe, and this universe is his best effort.
In Mormonism, our god was a person at some point, just like we are now. I always shock Mormons when I point out that at our god could have been a male prostitute or drag queen who later repented. LOL!
Every time the subject of "meaning" comes up, I remember what Joseph Campbell once stated, which opened my eyes and inspired me: "People say that what we're all seeking is a 'meaning' for life. I don't think that's what we're really seeking. I think what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that the life experiences that we have on the purely physical plane will have resonances within that are those of our own innermost being and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive."
That’s really beautiful!!! Hadn’t seen that before.
I need an honest answer from someone who knows. How comfortable (or uncomfortable) is that magic underwear? Also, how long did it take you to acclimate to "normal" underwear (ie. boxers or briefs)? Or are you still wearing magic mormon underwear?
The tops are just like any other t-shirt. The bottoms are just a bit longer than boxer briefs. No big whoop. And I don’t remember any problems transitioning. Now, I wear Banana Republic boxer briefs exclusively. Boy, I feel like Bill Clinton now! LOL!
He knows if you've been sleeping (and with whom), he knows if you're awake...🎶
LOL! possibly a salamander!
