Conversations With God
Thursday, December 11, 2008 Labels: doctrine, God 0 commentsA friend recently told me about this book targeted for teenagers. It is a bit dated as it was published in 1996. It is called 'Conversations With God' where the author Neale Donald Walsch has a conversation and he responds as if he were God. If that already did not put up a red flag there is a website that provides his chapter on abortion. Here are some of the stuff you will find: (Author/god response in bold)
"I want to get back to my question. Can you tell us anything about when life as we know it starts? At what point does the soul enter the body?
The soul doesn't enter the body. The body is enveloped by the soul. Remember what I said before? The body does not house the soul. It is the other way around.
Everything is always alive. There is no such thing as "dead". There is no such state of being.
That Which Is Always Alive simply shapes itself into a new form-a new physical form. That form is charge with living energy, the energy of life, always.
Life-if you are calling life the energy that I AM-is always there. It is never not there. Life never ends, so how can there be a point when life begins?"
So I guess he thinks we are infinite like God. We have no beginning or end?
"It never begins. Life never "begins", because life never ends. You want to get into biological technicalities so that you can make up a little "rule" based on what you want to call "God's law" about how people should behave-then punish them if they do not behave that way.
What's wrong with that? That would allow us to kill doctors in the parking lots of clinic with impunity.
Yes, I understand. You have used Me, and what you have declared to be My laws, as justification for all sorts of things through the years.
Oh, come on! Why won't You just say that terminating a pregnancy is murder!
You cannot kill anyone or anything."
Well he just eliminated the 6th commandment.
"So my earthly reality is not reality at all?
Did you really think it was?"
I am convinced he copied this is from the 'Matrix'
"Everything We are doing, We are doing in concert with each other. Our reality is a co-created reality. If you terminate a pregnancy, We terminate a pregnancy. Your will is My will.
No individual aspect of Divinity has power over any other aspect of Divinity. It is not possible for one soul to affect another against its will. There are no victims and there are no villains."
"So with regard to abortion or war, buying that car or marrying that person, having sex or not having sex, "doing your duty" or not "doing your duty," there is no such thing as right and wrong, and I have no preference in the matter.
You are all in the process of defining yourselves. Every act is an act of self-definition.
If you are pleased with how you have created yourself, if it serves you, you will continue doing so in that way. If you are not, you will stop. This is called evolution."
Obviously I think this guy is way mislead and misleading many young minds.
