Spiritual schizophrenia means exactly what it sounds like. But that's the beauty of the Bible, even people who only understand power and 'sky daddy said so' can get something out of it.

Look for the treasure buried beneath the dogma. Or don't, and continue to unconsciously worship fleeting idols.

The Bible commands no gods before God, thereby disproving this statement. Polytheism is for spiritual schizophrenics.

Traumatized by fiat... but it's always good to have vigilance. It's good to have people with trust issues on your side. Don't trust, verify.

The term conspiracy theorist was coined and stigmatized by intelligence agencies in order to make people ashamed of critically thinking and distrusting the government.

It's clear that you have nothing to contribute except sarcasm and a universal failure to understand basic economics.

Stockholm syndrome is strong with this one

Crony capitalism is not capitalism

There is no other system that uses human greed to improve life

The perfect angels you expect to come manage the economy are a dangerous and childish fantasy

Only a victim of extreme hubris and ignorance could surmise that the collective testimony of all ancestors from all cultures is hallucinatory.

Atheists simply unconsciously find something even less worthy to worship.

There is no escape from the necessity to account for that which transcends the faculty of reason.

The testament of those who have first-hand experience with the divine and its prevalence in all cultures and time periods should be a major wake-up call to anyone who legitimately subscribes to the scientific method.

Saylor specifically belittles bitcoin 'maxis' so I think there is a definitional issue here

Maxi sounds like maxi pad tho so I'm down with a new term

Currently using Agent Zero because it has a very streamlined setup guide and doesn't require 8 GPUs. Excited for more accessible solutions or lambo AI

"Just because some people misuse the words of the Bible doesn't mean there is anything wrong with the Bible. The Bible is God breathed."

> We & the entire Universe are God breathed. "The Spirit of God has made me, and the breath of the Almighty gives me life." - Job 33:4

"Using anything other than the Bible to guide you can lead you astray. "

> (Mis)using the Bible to guide you can lead you astray, too. Properly using anything can lead you rightly, because God made everything and his law governs all of creation. "For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed." - Isa 9:16

"if we don't have the Bible as our foundation, we can be misled by people, science, feelings, and spirits and have no idea we have been misled."

> Agreed, but there are other foundations which can also protect. The greatest of these is direct communion with God in your heart, something a child in the rainforest who has never heard of the Bible can accomplish. "That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you," - 1 John 1:3 || "For by one Spirit [[not Bible, not Creed]] are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles" - 1 Cor 12:13

"Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so."

> Critically examining the Scriptures daily is very far from dogmatic obedience to flawed human clerics and their interpretations. "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind" - Rom 12:2

Even a child who has never read the Bible may be closer to God than someone who reads regularly and adheres to dogma without understanding. "See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven" - Matthew 18:10

God's Word created the Universe. It is a living force-- it is a living power at work at all times in your world, mind, body, and soul.

Christian teachings are only a representation of God's Word. Whether they actually lead you to God's Word or not depends entirely on your ability to interpret and implement them. Conversely, misinterpreting them can lead you far from God's Will.

It's true, the Bible can be indispensable, but it can also be a roadblock, just like anything in life. Meanwhile, there are people who have never read the Bible who are closer to God's Word than many dogmatic Bible thumpers who idolize flawed interpretations from men on podiums.

It's true that many people should be more reverent for the Bible and study it more closely. However, it's important to remember that God is revealed primarily through first-hand experience and the natural order of His Creation rather than ink on paper.

> Romans 1:19-20 "What can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made.

Ironically, many Christians fail to share and spread their faith due to dogmatic judgmentalism, which is something quite far from the true Christian spirit. It's important to remember that Christ transcends all creeds, and as Shakespeare says, a rose by any other name is just as sweet.

> Romans 2:14-15 "When Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them."

> Psalm 19:1 "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork."

> Job 12:7-10 "But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the Lord has done this? In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind."

You are missing the point. This is not why they are Commies. They are Commies because they worship whoever has the most power and largest megaphone, and therefore would never even see your post or seriously consider this question in the first place.

Cool but has a ways to go for plot
