Doing your job is not being a goodie two shoes. It's doing your job. You are getting paid to be there.

After three days the physical cravings are over. After three weeks you will see a huge decrease in the psychological desire to have one. After a year food will taste normal again which will seem odd but you have no idea how much flavor your missing. For every year you don't smoke you cross out a year you smoked. If you need to chew on something like a straw or pencil. It helps.

No I am not. There is no evidence anything in religious text actually happened. Any other statement is a lie.

I think posts where banned users are discussed should be locked until the ban is over. Mods discussing banned users who can't respond is one of many problems on the site. Those with no information posting on this is a problem with the site. Waiting till someone is banned to talk smack about them when they can't respond or flag a comment is bs. Discussing anyone's ban with other members is bs.

The religions may be older but how reliable is the information we have of these religious texts?
All religious texts are myth and of equal standing.

No one says you can't have people at your home. What i am saying is if borders mean nothing I can camp in your yard and crap on your porch.

I agree. We really want to get out of town and raise our own meat even. We had a few backyard chickens and loved it. Eggs and meat. But we need more space. I hate where we are right now. We had to move quick and it's not a great neighborhood. I want pigs and goats and chickens and make cheese. If I thought I could do the homestead thing I would.

I think a lot of the magic associated with the Old Testament God was hidden and swashed. Kabbalah shows a side to God most Christians would reject. I view Moses as the first of many shaman who translated events elsewhere to here. The Jews were not in Egypt but a city most like Egypt somewhere else so they called it that when talking to laymen.

What did you mean by holistic stuff?
Growing my own food organically. Nature remedies for things you wouldn't see a dr for. Making soaps and lotions. Making incense. I kept coming across witch sites with recipes and at some point realized I had done some spell work as a kid as well as some astral stuff. Which I have a hard time doing now. Same for dream work. Used to have great dreams and remember them. I struggle now. Think it's a not ready thing.

I don't think he walked the Earth. I think it happened somewhere else. Just like the other gods. Same for Old Testament. That is why there is no proof. I think the Bible is confusing. Half of what people focus on isn't Jesus.At some level I guess it wouldn't matter if one believed Jesus was actual or just a symbolic type figure, the application is the same really I would think. I tend to believe Jesus was a historical spiritual Master because of the contents themselves, not so much the doctrines that surround it all.

That's cool, I've seen a few too. That is rare, most people get freaked out by that. If I may ask, what got you into the whole spiritual thing? was it any one source that enlightened you?
Initially I think believing in ghosts sparked it. I got into tarot reading and what I would now call light spell work as a teen. One I left for college not much happened. Then I had an actually full on "salvation experience" in college. But I was surround by Christianity. I still didn't read the Bible for decades and had my own views on god and Jesus that I assumed were right. Second time I started meditation and holistic stuff that lead to the gods I work with now.
Interesting, did you grow up in America?
Yes. Still live there. God country too. My grandmothers were both Christians but I only went to church with one who was Presbyterian. They are super laid back. Neither were pushy on Jesus. I imagine out of respect for my parents. My area is pretty heavy Catholic due to the mills and they were never really preachy. I remember when I took Latin thinking the Roman gods were just stories like Jesus. Never occured to me Christians though he was real. I thought they just liked him as an example.

I was until I was 20 then for a period of two years about 13 years ago. I had no connection to god at all, sure none existed. Now I have always believed in a soul because I believe in the dead and have seen a few. But god was pretty foreign until college. My parent showed no inkling to religion and we never went to any type of service or really discussed god/ gods.

I used to care and was even pretty nice. Then I came online and found out what they all think. When I asked my "friends" about stuff it was, well not you. Your ok. I just can't respect a one of them. Not a one.

Don't bother. He basically stated no one who doesn't practice a religion should talk about it but he posts in a religion forum. He is a dying troll angry at god for being sick taking it out on theists. No one should engage him.

Keith has stated discussing a religion you are not in is wrong. Any posts by him at this point are lies and trolling.

The Jewish holy text is the TORAH five books given to Moses by God. The rest is law.

Have to keep in mind much of the literature for the Heathen faiths was adapted by Christians. The Norse sources are The Eddas and Sagas. Snorri Sturluson was the first to really translate the poems and he assigned Odin as All Father, Loki as Satan and made Baldr a Christ figure. The parts about Odin are mostly made up taking Wodan myths and making Odin more king like to endorse the new rules who were Christian.
While the same religion there are local and regional gods in all the areas where the Heathen religion is practices. Anglo Saxons, Germans, Baltic regions and the Norse have regional gods, local stories and hero worship. Grimm's tales contain myth and practices. Hexeri and Braucherei and Pow Wow are specifically German as are goddesses like Holle and Perchta. The Baltics are a closed practice and much of their lore is still private with goddesses like Baba Yaga being regional to them. Loki is not a German deity.
So I look to the Edda/ Sagas, folk lore, Grimm, fairy tales, current practices preserved but Christianized. I also practice solitary so if I get a feeling about something when working with a god or spirit I do it.

You watched an award show. I don't think they are going to last much longer. They just can't draw the audience.

Really? What does equal mean? No wonder there is a women's movement in 2019

Well I had typed a whole list of incidence and examples of women being equal with men in the pre Christian northern European cultures and it's vanished. Must have closed it out and not realized. Not typing it again. Monotheists beat down women. Real men with real gods don't need to.
