GD Lounge # Reforged_Insanity :)

You know, sometimes ‘ordinary’ is just the extraordinary we cannot see because we’re too close to it :grin:

@Aitharn I’ve long since discovered, as a happily Agnostic heathen, that sin is truly a social construct forged by men, women, and institutions who seek power over others. It’s not in living an impossibly sinless life that we find redemption or even in the countless edited and mistranslated words of your preferred holy text.

It is in seeking to follow (as I believe) the actual example of how Christ lived that redemption truly lies.

For example, does it truly matter as some would argue that Christ fed the masses because he was a ‘socialist’ or an Ayn Rand devotee? To me, the answer is no. It only matters that Christ fed those who were hungry and thirty because they were and he had the ability to do.

Peace be with you, you delicious looking cow! You can crash on my hamburger bun anytime :grin:

Edit: dang, it just occured to me I’ve just put into words, something I rarely ever would on the WoW forums and not get basted for it!

This is truth! He left his best example in the way that he both lived and died. :slight_smile:

I too am hesitant to delve into talking about my faith on the forums or the internet as a whole. The way you shared your beliefs was both honest and respectful. You will not be yelled at by me that is for sure. Can’t see anything that would upset anyone here.

Truthfully, I learned a long time ago that respectful conversation and honesty goes a lot longer way than spiteful agreement.

Want to come speak with the raid boss that looked at me funny?

i’m scum… i’m doomed i think
feel burning in my head, heavy weight of fat on my chest, strangling of throat, i know that i’m not okay. i know some or many people want to hurt me… for my sins. Because i became a public sinner instead of hiding it due to sinning way too much for too long. I’m just an alien lifeform that used to be human that is just walking trouble and sorrow now. I’m sorry for bothering you loungers I will sleep tonight and hope I wake up tomorrow better off dead or alive.

Wrong. You will wake up tomorrow and it will be better precisely because you’re alive. You dig?

Thanks Huggy. I hope so.

Not scum just human and struggling right now. Do you have a family member or friend that you trust that you can talk to? Sounds like racing thoughts and what hubby and I call crud(actual word got flagged oops) thinking. You need someone you can trust to tell you the truth. You matter. While there is life there is hope.

Only if talking to him will help more than harm. I just suggest talking to someone that knows you well enough to be able to be supportive and yet willing to call you out carefully when needed. Those kind of conversations might be better over the phone or in person. So much emotion gets lost in walls of text or can be interpreted incorrectly.

Not really. I’ve just been down some terribly dark wells in my lifetime and knowing that maybe if I can throw a rope I can help someone else, that’ good enough for me, I guess.

That’s precisely what makes you awesome! Just say’n.

My hubby is not comfortable with me having guys on my bnet besides my brother and son. I can talk to anyone on the forums because it is all public. While I would like to be able to help more than well this it’s all I can do, if that makes sense? With females being so scarce that play WoW it makes making in-game friends difficult.
