Try reading a little Krishnamurti on freedom. It’ll help.

Try taking off your rose-colored glasses.

It’ll help. Big time.

No mention of Jesus Christ, God, Heaven or Hell.

The Pope's letter reflects what I believe he's voiced before, I.e., that men of good faith can somehow bring about a better, virtuous, fair and humane world. What he seems to miss or believes unnecessary is the need for men and mankind to be changed through Christ becoming preeminent in their lives. The Pope recently taught young seminarians (in Spain I think) that the gospel should not be preached to non-Christians but that our example, not words, is what will convert anti-Christians. I suppose the church needs to apologize for all the missionaries it has sent into the world preaching the gospel to unbelievers from the 1st century to today. Where would the church and you and I be if someone didn't preach the gospel to our ancestors who "heard" the gospel and coverted to Christ? Is the Pope even familiar with the following scripture or is New Testament Truth optional for Jesuits?

" And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. - Mark 16:15,16

"So faith comes from hearing (not by example only), and hearing by the word of Christ." - Rom 10:17

"Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God." - James 4:4

Anybody whose read my posts knows I don’t wear rose colored glasses. I do know for a fact that fear is where they want us. Fear makes logic and reason impossible. It makes folks reactionary. It makes folks easy to manipulate. Therefore fear is a tool of those who wish to dominate. I refuse to spend what remaining days I have being fearful, continuously looking for monsters, satanists and pedo’s (oh my) under my bed. Carry on.

I was speaking of perception, but you’re smart and knew that. I love the yellers of name calling, while name calling the name callers for name calling. Adios 🖖

And I’m sure you’ve read him and may well worship him.
