iambiguous … in a previous post I suggested you had enormous potential.
I just figured it out!
Seems I just experienced one of those sudden bursts of insight Jacob talked about.
You have been called to champion the materialist side of a certain dyad as I have been called to champion the spiritual side of the same dyad. You have been sparring with how many ILP members? … for how long? and yet collectively they haven’t even scratched your armor. You remain as forceful and energetic as ever. A valiant warrior indeed!.
Your victory in the sparring I refer to above … even if victory is limited to the last person still standing … still posting … is simply a reflection of just how strong the materialist side of the dyad is in today’s world.
Recently I’ve been harping about the intrinsic value of personal experience … especially the innocuous … insignificant experiences of our daily lives. Today you shared one of your own … how long has it been since you shared a simple personal experience on ILP? We shouldn’t underestimate the significance of this event. This insignificant event may be a “billboard” broadcasting which direction your life will take.
This insignificant personal experience of yours may also be the first instance of a “chink in your armor”. It’s important to note that this ‘chink’ was self inflicted … it didn’t come from the outside … from anyone else. When your armor is finally pierced it will also come from the inside … this will be a great day for you and for mankind! I look forward to it.
What experience am I referring to? Your “True Story” in the OP “Why is Islam [in part] So Evil”. Seems your ‘goodness’ compelled you to share your experience … and apologize for accidentally posting in the wrong OP.
Reflecting on the above thoughts triggered a memory … the conversion experience of Gaius Marius Victorinus at an advanced old age(c AD 355). While looking for some reference material I was tickled to learn that Victorinus and his post conversion writings are the topic of current philosophical/religious debate.
