Nips and Nazis

I think the Japanese blew up America while we slept.  But God stitched us all back together atom by atom, thot by thot.

Have you seen the movie Pearl Harbor?  The unprovoked HATRED the Japanese had toward us?  The murders they carried out were beyond heartless.

We had so many weapons, but were caught completely off-guard. 

Thank God we were able to wake up in time.

Thank God we were able to defeat those monsters.

Thank God we stopped the Nazis before they reached our soil.

Only because God was on our side were we able to fight and win two separate wars at the same time.

America was described as a "Sleeping Giant," and I know what is keeping it asleep:  Opium.

If you use opiates, you are the problem.

God does not want you dumbed-down, living in a stupor.  That's what the enemy wants.  The enemy uses drugs like opiates, amphetamines and cocaine to fuck you up.

Think "Ecstasy" isn't a hard drug?  It is heroin and methamphetamine particles formed into a pill.  Still think it's safe?

God does not want to wait till you die for you to turn around and see His face.  I hope He takes you by the shoulders, spins you around and lifts up your eyelids with His fingers.  "Look, you retarded monkey!  I am real, and I am good!"

Peace.

Stupid Nabrs

How am I supposed to love my nabrs as myself, when they are SO STUPID?

For instance, I have a large self-portrait painting hanging in my apt.  One nabr said something so vulgar about it that I can't repeat it.  Yesterday, I had another nabr over, and his comment was, "It looks like a demented Bart Simpson."  Thanks, buddy, that's just what I wanted to hear.

Stupid people don't appreciate art.  They prefer pornography.

Karma?

People love to say, "What goes around, comes around."  It's a simplistic statement that is often used by musicians and preachers. 

Some people also like to say, "Everything happens for a reason."  This is another simplistic statement you often hear on local newscasts.

But what is the reality of cause and effect?  Can some things not have a cause, and others not have an effect?  What role does God play in these things?

I've read, that when one becomes a buddha, the laws of cause and effect cease to operate.

If God forgives you of your evil deeds, will they not return to you?

Or is all of this just a lot of talk?

"Scripture-Ridden"

There is a condition in Buddhism, known as being "dharma-ridden."  It is when the scriptures become unmanagable in yer mind.  Their authority overrides yer own sense of self-control.  The dharma is said to spin yoo around, instead of yoo turning the dharma.

I've been having this kind of experience lately, but with Christian scripture.  I think it can happen with any kind of advice or sayings that yoo deem authoritative.

My solution is to take my problem to what I believe to be the final authority, the living and loving God.  I let Him tell me what is true, and He puts my mind at ease.

Making the Invisible Visible

This is what God's love looks like.  (God is the one on the right.)
