    you're just assuming

I am making a conclusion base on available data. You have never surprised me, theologically. johnnyfive has presented me with ideas I have never heard before, as a contrast.

    Once again, I don't think you give me enough credit.

Once again, unless you have experienced the level of religious trauma I have, I don't think it's POSSIBLE for you to understand. It's not a dig at you, it's a compliment that you haven't been fucked up in my unique and colorful ways.

    Have you considered that, capacity wise, we're all limitless and that means despite our short comings we have near limitless potential to do immeasurable good in the world?

Yes, and I have discarded it years ago. Potential is meaningless unless it is actualized.

I wanted to stop a long time ago, but the train keeps on rolling with or without me.
