What's your point?

Nope. I think I was born on the wrong Planet. I was born on the wrong Planet. My Soul was zipping along to its material testing zone when zoop... it got whirled by a surprise berth on of all places mother earth, the only place in the universe not inclined to kill a Soul like that for a radius of probabilities greater than the hyperspace surface of the universe. The real action is up there. This experience of material life from beginning to end, was a TV show to how big it gets up there.

Imagine two compatible people burned by previously failed relationship-attempts. They're lucky to have met each other, and in a quiet corner of their heart the Holy Spirit is whispering as much, such that they are hesitatingly, haltingly, circling each other. But previous experiences have heightened the self-preservation senses of both, such that both are waiting for a real-world indication from the other that the feelings are serious and sincere. If both wait for the other to do something real to prove the feelings be real, and if neither side does anything, it could end in a stalemate of nothing, when it could have been a perfectly happy match. How do we teach kids to know something like that can happen strong enough for them to get it and make the grand-kid's generation better? I got an idea for a Temple Building Training Centre for strong guys.

They will be until your i-pad breaks, at which point those stockpiling magazines are going to make a fortune.

I mush hamburger meat with eggs and onion soup mix, squeeze it into sausage shapes, dip them into pancake batter, fry them, and eat them out of a napkin with one hand.

The story about Lilith goes way back to early Jewish times, and if you're concerned about why Eve got all the attention then look at how popular media works. Everyone keeps missing the point. Humans started in a state where they could waltz around healthy young and nude, doing whatever came naturally, and nobody thought anything about it. Then one day Lucifer tricked humans into thinking about what they were doing. Yes I know the story says it was from eating an apple (which didn't grow there... if anything it would have had to have been a pomegranate) but the point is, humans were smart and nice enough to be just-right for God to love, but were also just a bit too-smart such that there was a risk, so he told them to not... hmm... how do we put this in modern terms... smoke dope. And yes I know that's a fantastically clumsy metaphor, but... I trust enough will get the point. Suppose you created dogs, which are totally lap-loving tail-wagers. Do angels flap their wings with enthusiasm when in God's presence? But what if you want more? What if you want something that loves you because it chooses to, and not just because it's wired up that way? What if you make cats? You know their weakness, and tell them not to sniff nip. Then a bad dog sneaks the cats some nip, and the cats get stoned, and you find them staring at a mouse carcase thoughtfully, so you ask what the problem is, and they tell you that maybe they shouldn't have done that. You kick the bad dog out. You send the cat to the barn where it will eat mice because it has to, and you go back to swatting mice with a broom, when it would be really nice if the cats would get back to doing what they're good at in your house, so you can do other, more useful things. Kind'a thing. Maybe. In as much as is the story of Lilith.

The flip-side of having a neurological capacity for Free Agency is that the rest of the universe gets to operate with quantum disorder. Therefore look for patterns. When it was said that the way to tell a true prophet from a false one was by seeing which one's predictions came true, that wasn't as retroactively self-validating as it sounds. It was meant to say that that prophet could see the patterns. On a personal level, if I knew enough farmers, I'd be putting in five years worth, plus storing coal and wood and tools to be able to build things to trade back to the farmer.

Duh... because they haven't grown up yet, nor have yet had enough experience to know what the risks are?

If as a Creator one were to make the Universe operate Quantum Mechanically in order to enable Free Agency, then the best one could hope for with Prophesy is to say where things are going to end up if things keep going the way they are going, in which case it's kind of sad if a negative prophesy comes true.

Americans are lucky. They can actually stand up and ask questions. You should see what it's like in other countries where the targets are not gangsters. Examples are: Israel so presumed its citizens would do everything to avoid taxes that the government upped the taxes to the point where if anyone payed by the book, they'd be over-taxed. The deal is, you pay a percentage of what you make unto Cesar to keep the nation going, and that's it. After that it's unto God.

By semantic do you mean issues like if a gay guy with good DNA makes a deal with a bunch of lesbians for them to have his DNA if he at least give them a spare bedroom to crash in while the mothers are on vacation?
