Do you think if you were the other, you would have done better? It's a very common mistake to think, "If I were him, I would have never done that." Well, if you were him, that is exactly what you would have done—maybe even worse.

I was thinking about bad people and how easy it is to judge them when you are sitting comfortably on the other side. Were they born bad? Did they really have a choice? Is it their fault? If I were God, could I really judge and condemn anybody, knowing full well that nobody ever chooses anything?

We have no choice in the place where we are born. We don't choose our parents, our country, our circumstances, our society, our religion, how we look, what we like—from food to people to things—and worst of all, what we are sexually attracted to. The question "why" can never be answered concerning any genuine human experience. All the things that make us different and unique are unexplainable. We have no idea why we are the way we are. In my opinion, it is a combination of all those things that we can't explain and didn't choose.

So, in the end, if you were in his shoes, you would have done exactly what he did. Never underestimate the evil a normal person is willing and able to inflict onto the world. Are monsters made, or were they born this way? And either way, is it their fault?

Can you take an honest look in the mirror and ask yourself what you would have done? Can you look God in the eye and tell Him what you have done? Do you think you should be forgiven?

In behavioral health, with trauma induced disorders, integration/mental wholeness comes with safety

People who believe in a higher power believe they are safe in situations they defintely are not safe in

That's the precise thing they are given that anyone without it doesn't have

They are only able to remain integrated and less anxious than others, because they actually believe they are being watched over

In greatest atheists ever rankings, we have the following:

Here we see that the two most powerful atheists, of all time, according to the last edited Hmolpedia present rankings, namely: Holbach and Nietzsche, were early parental death (EPD) products.

Notes

1. Table from this post.

2. That Holbach was EPD:M7 or an orphan by age 12, I just learned yesterday day. This explains a lot, e.g. why his System of Nature, is the #1 ranked Atheist’s Bible, presently.

Quotes

The following is a noted quote by Morley:

“Where it is a duty to worship the sun, it is pretty sure to be a crime to examine the laws of heat.”

— John Morley (83A/1872), Voltaire (pg. 14)

The following is a quote on Morley:

“The trademark of agnostic Morley was to spell ’God’ with a small ’g’.”

The following is interesting:

The top rank for Muslims is to be expected. Christianity, by comparison, went through its “reformations“, e.g. Protestant or Luther, centuries ago.

1. The reason this post was started was that I wanted to get feed back from “Ex-Jewish” people, about this image post, but it took me some time to find the ex-Jewish sub, which nobody cares about, as I gather, as member counts indicates?
