hi, i'm in a serious relationship with a very special person but when we're apart i generate so much negative energy, as if something is missing or something terrible has happened. and when i see her again, i can't help but take some of that negative energy with me - which then turns into thoughts that she may not be happy or that our relationship is going downhill.
i have no reason to think these thoughts because i have more than i could ever ask for and i think they are caused by the negative energy i've been feeling.

to get to the point:
i was wondering how you guys get rid of negative energy - all mantras, meditations, rituals/spells, etc. are welcome. i need help!

Does anyone have any ideas on how to politely defend yourself against people trying to convert you?

I am one who is fine with what anyone wants to believe but do not think its cool when their beliefs get in my way. i.e. laws being made based on a certain religion, people trying to pass me flyers, people telling me I'm going to hell for sure no matter what I belief because their belief is definitely right.

How do you respond to people like that? They make me SO angry and frustrated, and I know I am started to judge them as a group, mainly Christians because so many of them are like this.

I feel like I'm being attacked spiritual from all sides. What can I do?

That question can be answered by the day she observes. Does she observe the seventh-day Sabbath, which is the memorial of creation? Of course not. At the council of Laodicea in the mid-360s she actually outlawed obedience to the Fourth Commandment, and executed Sabbatarians during the Dark Ages! She declares her authority apart from Scripture to switch the day of rest and worship, to the first day of the week. That is just like human nature because God said to work six days and then rest; man wants to take his rest day first and then work!

If we were created 6000 years ago, or intelligently designed, what is the purpose of body hair? It's too thin to provide warmth, and if you're hairy like me, it gets irritated when clothing rubs on it. Many people shave it off anyway.

So, what do you think is the purpose of body hair?

The ones that believe non believers are going to hell, do you not have any friends that dont believe in the same God as you?

How can you not care that "God" could send your friends to burn in "hell" ?

First of all they don't even worship Satan. It's not a religion but a half-baked unoriginal philosophy. It's more of a Lex Luthor fan-club except more embarrassing because they take it seriously.

As if they were ABSOLUTE?

I was told Christians try to convert because even though I don't believe in hell, it is a fact and they are trying to save me.

Why can't you just admit it's a faith? It is not the same as a car about to run over a child. No person of any faith would say a car about to run over a child was not there. But only your faith sees this car. And you judge me by it? Seriously, that takes some nerve, and that is true intolerance.

I have my beliefs, but I understand they may not match the ABSOLUTE which none of us can know for sure until we die. No one on Earth has complete proof that their religion is correct above all others. I would never judge anyone else, not even my husband by my faith beliefs.

So when someone makes it clear to you that it's fine for you to believe in somethng, but they do not and will not, stop justifying it by saying you have to or they will definitly go to hell. That is the most intolerant thing I have EVER heard.

So basically Im asking is..........Is it our destiny to die?

So what if I try so hard to make everyone believe that Jesus is our Savior is it still their Destiny to Die?

So i guess we have to believe for ourselves.

Just because you believe something is true doesn't really mean it is? I mean some of these people literally think they are great singers and when they are rejected Their entire worlds are crushed. I mean this just proves to me that no matter what the evidence the majority of people would rather be Delusional then accept the truth. Agree or disagree. I mean to them they would rather believe that they are good because it makes them feel better, rather then pay attention to reality and get hurt. Much like religion.

I am specifically referring to obesity.

There is a very simple solution to losing weight:
1. eat less
2. exercise

There is no excuse for not being able to do these things.

If from yourself, how am i wrong?
If from society, how is another society wrong?
What's the standard that judges whether one person is right and one person is wrong?
Was Hitler wrong in his actions? If he was, why? Was he wrong because his morality was different from everyone else?
1+1=2, but what's that third thing that tells us who is right and who is wrong?

You know it's going to happen. One day we'll reanimate a dead, cryogenically frozen brain and that person will say, "wow, it was just total black nothingness. I simply ceased to exist."

Finally, we'll be able to put all this god and religion nonsense to bed once and for all, and humanity can finally get its act together.

I can't wait!
