There is a distinct change in flavor from pre shut-down to post shut-down. Interestingly, M7 is still out of action. Given that he "was" saidit, this is a huge question mark. It does feel like some action has been taken to neutralize the value this site provided.

What a shitty world this is so rapidly becoming... it was always a shitty world in most of it, of course, but there used to be areas that rose above. The past twenty years has seen a concerted and largely successful effort to crush the last bastions of individualism. Join the borg or die.

Sigh.

seems those that have not chosen have the hardest time, GOoD or dEvil?

so many don't even know it is a choice

if you waver between the two, as most do, you have no power

evil people have the power of deception, but it only works on those inbetweeners

those that carry their own light make those folks run away as if you had injured them

usually it won't be obvious, they will just leave your presence

more need to be fully on God's side, meditate, read spiritual texts ..

define your own 'religion' .. only you can do it, following others is recipe for what we see now

if you do what YOU think is right, and then listen to your heart about how you feel.. it will tell you if you are on the Good path

if you are not (NO SHAME) shift to the right path you now see, condemnation for that which you didn't know is silly

condemnation for what you ignore.. is self inflicted

alright, hope you pull something from that.. or now you will call me crazy and I will return to my happy life and ignore you.

You are not crazy.

Finding the path you describe is the first step.

But even once found, staying on it requires a lifetime's discipline. So many holes to trip and fall into between "beginning" and "end"...

Thanks for the slap. Friends don't let friends wallow...
