"Poetry: philosophy" by pandora713

satan is the simple personification of what the church teaches is immoral. what i think the church doesn't know is that there is no true immorality, only difference in morality. and through this difference in one person's perspective versus another's, good and evil hang in an unprecedented and almost unbreakable balance.

"We all want to be the best we can be, but how many of us can say we are truly objective?
You have read this poem, now let the poet know how you feel, and comment truly.

As nice as it is to read "great poem"
it does not make us better and does not give us an indication of what made it great.
Not all of us are literature students, remember to comment on things like style, subject and form.

So leave a comment, and help others in this community"

heh, now if you want to be a true philosopher... expand this one idea into a whole fucking book with a whole lot of nonsense.

on a serious note, your ideas are concrete and solid and it seems as if you have the mind of a philosopher already. I wouldnt want to get in a debate or argument with you.

man you are good.

ive thought about the whole morality vs its own existence before, but you seem to have a good grasp on what you believe and i respect you for that, as you already know. such a gift is so rare these days.

You say:

satan is the simple personification of what the church teaches is immoral.

But I say unto you:

Satan is the personification of the brilliant being who is a construct of selfish-desires: the ego of man. Ishu, (who is known as Jesus Christ), taught that man could be reborn and become, (LIKE HIM & MORE!), born out of the ignorance and egoism of our parents - we shall become "Sons of Men".

You say:

what i think the church doesn't know is that there is no true immorality, only difference in morality.

I say:

When the "first humans" took nibbles off the tree of knowledge of good and evil: they were forwarned that should they do so, they would die. God is Good, and Goodness is Living and does not die. In order to die, one had to depart from God, who is the truth. Hence (continuous) rebirth (and death) in these realm of mortals with, as you call it, a wide variation in the “difference in morality” between beings. [The snake didn’t really lie, but twisted the truth into higher and lower truths, or rather relative truths…Immortal Spirit cannot “die”, ever, unless it takes up the garb of the body, then Identifying itself with that body, by the power of “I am” one entertains, upon the death of the body: I am dead – then, later, I have died. However, one is also reborn, until the cycle is disrupted by transcendental wisdom which conveys the Good News that: God, the Supreme and Eternal Creator, has taken up residence in your very own Heart and is Fully Present throughout the world.

You say:

and through this difference in one person's perspective versus another's, good and evil hang in an unprecedented and almost unbreakable balance.

I tell you true:

Good and Evil do not exist but upon Judgment. “Eat of this tree and you shall be like God,” said the snake, with his forked tongue, also saying: “Surely, ye shall not die.” But immediately they saw that they were naked, and they knew that they were mortal, with bodies – so they hid, knowing that they had done something other than what God, the Good, had commanded them. But God knew what had happened and how it was to transpire: for surely He is the All-Knowing, the Wise.

We have, by eating from the tree of knowledge, been made in Their Image: a being capable of Judgment and Mercy (through our compassionate understanding, having lived in the ‘skin’ for countless aeons).
Freewill creates all kinds of possibilities – especially for that which is called evil – due to the forces of ignorance – however, God’s will is unified, and drawing near to it one will understand that Good that is beyond the comprehension of men: the Superlative Good.

What happens, happens. If you judge it evil – you will avoid it. If you judge it good – you will cling to it. If you come to the point beyond Good and Evil – you will know God, the One who communes DIRECTLY with the Sons of Men, blessed may they be.

exactly.

good and evil is all prespective.
church, therefore, is biased.

and the god we speak of does not exist.

the end.
nicely done.
