Intense psychological turmoil - and encounters

[Creaky]

I'd argue quite strongly that love is human nature, it's a very distinct emotion amongst humans, when people have an incapacity to feel or express it we'll often diagnose them with a disease of the mind. That said we also say the same when people love "too much" and have emotional dysregulation.

I didn't blame a monolithic God nor would I, I would say it's absolute hubris when people claim to do things on his behalf though, ironically often led by emotions and 'feelings'. I also agree, apparently Jesus taught acceptance so anything done to the contrary is hardly Christian. I have no more right to call a Muslim Takfir than I do a Christian a heretic yet our history is littered with "in god's name" bs.

I honestly think the premise of the thread is difficult to apply to monotheistic faith systems since they've historically demonised any and all activity related to animism, nature worship and paganism. In short placing the utmost importance on the word mono.

But yeah... Nothing really to do with the teachings of Jesus. A lot of people do turn to Christianity and other monotheistic religions due to experiences though, every case will be different. Some people use exorcisms, others use crystals and some even take antipsychotics... Right or wrong is individual too, whatever works I guess.

Some aim to understand and are more than willing to poke the proverbial carcass to see what happens. That's seemingly what this thread is about and it's not like their isn't volumes of work regarding this stuff. More modern writings, although that probably has something to do with the purposeful destruction of anything "not like mine" which is the actions of humans, not God/god's.

Sirius? I appreciate the effort you're putting into these threads, it's a really interesting topic and it's hardly anything new. Links and conclusions that are as old as thought itself? Idk but it's highly interesting.

Love thy enemy is certainly not human nature
Christs main teaching

In Gods name indeed, even though He taught love 
Anyway, that’s a theological argument you can’t explain to a non believer
