Albert,
Ok lets try to work with what you have said to me.
Quote:I did not feel like I'm a bully within my heart chakra when I wrote my posts. I was careful to look into this when I wrote them. In fact, my state of being felt very positive.
Egotism can be deceptive. The ego can make you feel good or bad. Whenever someone is fixated on something as you are with ACIM and or gurus, etc. this is a reflection of your own consciousness, your own experiences. Just because you feel you were deceived in your own experience does not mean that the author of ACIM or the author any other material intentionally set out to deceive people. What an author says may or may not reflect ultimate truth. However that decision should be left to the person reading the material. You truly can trust that each individual is guided throughout their lifetime and presented with experiences that are the most beneficial for the point of development they are in. Sure sometimes people make the wrong choices, but that is how we learn. To know is to experience. However, anyone’s experience is only relative to his/her self.
Quote:It isn't a matter of being egotistical. It is a matter of my caring enough about deceptive sources not having their way, that I'm willing to speak truthfully about them even though people such as your self throw stones.
Albert, as I have stated numerous times before, I do not oppose you expressing your opinion. It is the way you go about doing it. In this instance you claim that “spirit guidance” told you ACIM was bad. That is not only ridiculous. It is absurd. Any spiritual being of a high quality consciousness would do no such thing.
Quote:If you were balanced on this matter you would've spoken against a false source of information at least once. But you never do so. Instead you defend them, even when you don't know what a source is about.
You claim that I am trying to infringe upon the free will of other people, yet you never complain about misleading sources that try to do so. Not once have I told a person that you have to believe as I do. I simply share what I have found about sources that infringe upon the free will of people by misleading and brainwashing them.
It is a very sad day indeed if people can't speak out against false sources of information, with out people making accusations against them as you have. Perhaps a book such as Mein Kamf would not had been successful, if more people would've spoken against it. Some people might say it's not the same thing, partly because they don't understand how insidious it is for books such as ACIM to represent themselves in the way they do.
My belief is that there are light beings that don't just stand by passively while unfriendly beings have their way. I believe this partly because I have helped deal with unfriendly spirits, so they'd stop messing with people. If eveybody just sits around and sings "kay sara sara whatever will be will be" nothing will ever be done to take care of the deceptive forces that try to mislead people.
Actually I neither favor nor condemn any written material, unless I am judging it on the basis of whether or not it is helpful to myself. This is because I have had enough spiritual contact with high quality spiritual beings and understanding of how the entire system works to know that everyone is guided to have the experiences they need to have. What is helpful for one person is not necessarily helpful to another, but that is not for either you or I or anyone else to decide. Everyone has the freewill to choose. I trust the system because I know without a doubt that everyone is led and encouraged to grow spiritually by the entire system.
Quote:I don't believe it is good to step on people's toes. But such an indiscretion rates about a 2 or 3 on a scale of one to ten, when compared to the indiscretion of not doing anything. I rate that indiscretion a 10.
I doubt that Christ wants himself to continue to be misrepresented by ACIM. If you don't care about this that's your choice. But please don't tell me that I can't care enough to speak out.
Do you really think Christ needs you to intercede on his behalf? If so this might indicate you are operating from an egotistical attitude. If Christ objected to ACIM or anything else as misrepresenting him or not being beneficial to the evolution of consciousness then no doubt he could simply delete it from existence. Indeed the system itself would eliminate it. Whatever is not beneficial to the whole of consciousness sooner or later becomes extinct.
Quote:I re-read my posts, and believe that I went along with the flow. I started with one post, and then responded to responses and in one case a question. Is there something wrong with responding?
Again, I have never objected to you expressing your opinion about any subject including ACIM. Only the way you go about it by insisting that you are correct because “spirit guidance” told you so. Perhaps you would like it better if I were even more passive than what you think I am. Ha! If your answer is yes… that is your ego talking.
If you were to consider making it clear in your posts that each individual does have the freewill right to choose to evaluate the usefulness of any material for themselves, then this passive person may remain passive and refrain from interjecting her opinion.
