Check out the Light in the Darkness community on Discord - hang out with 12 other members and enjoy free voice and text chat.

Hello everybody! To be clear, I have left Tumblr, but I don’t know how else I’m going to advertise this without being pushy or disrespectful of other peoples’ personal space. 

This post involves Christianity. If this will make you uncomfortable, please do not read this. Hurting someone is the last thing I want to do.

Welcome to Light in the Darkness, a Christian discord server made to teach people about a non LGBTQ+ phobic, non trump-ism side of Christianity! All people are welcome, including non Christians seeking a positive space/place to learn about a kinder side of our religion! If you are a non Christian seeking to debate with someone about philosophy, you can join, too (I personally adore debates!), but please do not join simply to harass members. You will be kicked.

Whether you want to join or not, I hope you have a wonderful day!

When Christ proclaimed “let he who is without sin cast the first stone,” he wasn’t suggesting restraint; he was saying “me first!”

Humans need a sense of purpose and more importantly something to believe in. They need a guiding hand and a need to believe that there is a higher purpose and a reason for living.  Over the journey of human evolution, the human consciousness invented religion and myths.

 In ancient times there was the Greek and Roman Mythology. The ancients had many gods to guide them. In our modern times we have modern philosophies of religion. The current influences in religion can be found in the forms of Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism and tribal religions.

The main theme of the modern religion is that there is a focal point or god that provides for a particular point of view and a way of life. There are particular rules that one has to apply to follow one’s faith. Religion is a very powerful form of controlling masses and has a way bringing to a common purpose.

With human brain understanding more and the invention of the concept of science, cosmology the study of how the universe was created and works became a competitor to religion.

The never ending road to Calgary is a Jesus thing, Calgary is the place where Jesus was crucified and there's this whole journey there that's important to Christians, so it would be like being on this torturous road to death forever

et abib:

“Calvary” represents the place where jesus was crucified so in context they’re basically saying “this never-ending road to death” or the more dramatic les mis perspective of fateful, predetermined death

Merci à vous tous!
