Maybe in the future when we evolve to a certain degree of growth and maturity, we'll be allowed to understand more, little by little.
Theological thread stupid. The only one whining about it is you. Your cookie cutter sameness is not only getting old, but a great deal of the time makes no sense.
Evolve is one thing. Wisdom is completely different ... and seems to be stuck in reverse.
Some are very busy ... thinking up new ways to dominate and fleece they who can't be bothered with thinking
STuck in reverse or do you think we've just given ourselves so much to do, that there is no time to sit and contemplate?
Even 50 yrs ago, people didn't have as much to do and look after as we do now. Between the home computers, the lap tops, the smart phones, smart tv's, tablets, light bulbs you program from an app, to getting your coffee just the way you want it, collecting the points so you can save money on the next thing that will require your time, etc etc etc. We no longer sit without being entertained by some external stimulation.
I think we are evolving into busy busy creatures with very little time for contemplation.
I enjoy reading his posts. I don't think it's wailing.
You could always NOT read them if you feel the way you say you do, then you wouldn't have to wail against them...![]()
Eaglecrack is a broken record. If I posted a thread on a good lasagna recipe he'd say I was whining. I think his neuro transmitters must have some sort of glitch. Or, maybe he is simply retarded.

yep. I think the invention of sin was the most brilliant of business schemes. You can charge what ever you want and there is no way for anyone to prove them wrong and collect a refund. Brilliant.
Look at Joel Olsteen. Lives an extravagant life all on the dime of those who are afraid that death might be the end and that life is hard for no reason other then it is hard.

People like Osteen depend on guilt and fear to make their fortunes. I believe Jesus taught just the opposite. But his teachings were bastardized by those who came after him.
Take your eyes off the right wing religious nut cases. There are two things going on at all times; Yin/Yang. The Universe is always seeking balance. For every one who lowers his IQ to that of a knuckle dragger, one other raises above it all. There is no god separate from everything in the Universe. The Universe created itself and we are made of the same stuff as the Universe.
AN AGE CRISIS?
If we compare the two age determinations, there is a potential crisis. If the universe is flat, and dominated by ordinary or dark matter, the age of the universe as inferred from the Hubble constant would be about 9 billion years. The age of the universe would be shorter than the age of oldest stars. This contradiction implies that either 1) our measurement of the Hubble constant is incorrect, 2) the Big Bang theory is incorrect or 3) that we need a form of matter like a cosmological constant that implies an older age for a given observed expansion rate.

I don't see how his "flock" can't see what's going on. He must be very careful which things he gives sermons on...
Because people want to believe in something and are vulnerable prey for the parasites.
