Believe it or not...




Believe it or not, you were designed with a few unique characteristics which elevate you above the jungle food chain: (1) Self Consciousness

(awareness); (2) Mentality (capacity for rational thought); (3) Volition (free excercise of will); (4) Emotion (appreciations); (5) Conscience

(norms and standards); (6) Perception Apparatus (empiricism, rationalism, faith); (7) Time on Earth (opportunity to mature to full stature).

You wern't designed to bow your neck, become unteachable, wallow in decadence, moan and groan and complain. That was your decision.

I'd say that's exactly what most of the people on this planet were designed for.

Modern Health care is polluting the gene pool by keeping these people around long enough to procreate. Natural selection is being subverted. We are becoming a bunch of generalists instead of specialists.

There will be hell to pay.

Years of study and careful observation.

For a quick classroom excersise, go to an american football game and watch the crowd. Or go down to your local entertainment district when the bars close and watch the barbarism ensue.

If you come away with a different point of view than I, then perhaps you wouldn't mind being a boy named Sue too.

I try to explain this to my husband every time we make piggies.

Deviant behavior doesn't offer proof of design, though it does provide confirmation of human will in action in its attempt to self destruct.

does a tree deviate from its design? Does it suddenly grow apples instead of oranges?


Does a car deviate from its design and suddenly grow wings and fly like a bird?

Does a lion deivate from its design and suddenly decide to become a vegan?




Why are humans considered a separate and distinct sub-set of all the other organisms on this planet. Why is "self destructive" behavior labelled as "deviant"??? It is neither deviate, nor "normal". It is simply another aspect of our overall design. We may choose to not exhibit certain aspects of our design capability, but those who do, should not be labelled as deviating from their design. They are simply acting out aspects of their design that differ from aspects of human design that other people have chosen to exhibit.


Always remember that you are unique....just like everybody else.

Those characteristics are not unique to humans. Humans are not only sentient beings. I have seen dogs with much more brain and emotions then some humans. πŸ˜›

With all due respect, you're confused. Only three categories of creatures... angelic, human and food chain. Rational capacity is the issue.

Shame on me for not reading your introspective profile, again, before assuming objectivity and replying to your logic emasculated posts.

That's just one of countless possible subjective interpretations of this world.

Only one that counts. Reflects all that's knowable in terms of absolute truth on the subject. All else is philosophical speculation and counterfeit.
