you tell a pedo that just believe in jesus and he's going to
heaven, guess what that encourages...
that is the criticism of the RC forgiveness machine, yes,
that it encourages a lack of responsibility because at
the end of every day one may once again be 'cleansed'.

well, in protestanism it should be an ongoing thing... you are
either in a state of grace or not, and most of them think they are
''in'' grace... and all their actions being guided by the holy
spirit... but satan lurks in the shadows... watch out... that's
why you have people like dh concentrate a large amount of time
thinking about 'the beast' and 'satan'... without that dark anti-
element, their philosophy would lack action and adventure. what's
the point of doing something that's easy. it has to be hard! it
has to be a naked sexy woman so that you cannot fail to notice and
so now you need that forgiveness... now it's too late... gotcha!!

conventional criticism of forgiveness mechanisms in
Christian religion allowing for amorality in its
participants.

`We come now to the idea of the Gaeia Universe, where the whole of the Universe would be a single living entity of which all mankind is barely an organelle. But unlike the organisms of Earth, the elements of the Universe, energy and matter, are not connected by the bloody and battering interaction of consumption that we experience on Earth, but by the same forces of physics and mechanics which govern the aforementioned astronomical principles. The concept of pantheism proposes an additional connection, one of an overarching divine presence. In this divinity, mind and matter are one, and all things in the Universe are evenly connected'' --B.D. Abramson |
