We are cave men and women that are trying to live and adapt to a modern world that we simply did not evolve to live in. It perfectly explains the low level anxiety we all feel. The feeling of being overwhelmed. The disconnect between our own existence and the universe itself. Even God.

It just isn't right. We were meant to live a more peaceful and simpler life. People become anxious and depressed because they're not designed for this kind of life.

What do you think?

I would say we are living in the best of times ever in History !
How many people are living on easy street ! and crying about nothing but BS a lot of the time.

I have seen people on easy street crying about everything, dull boring people who have never had to work full on like worse then a slave !

I was so happy not to have to work on my days off, it was just so great ! To look up at the Sky and see the clouds etc, what a releaf !

When I look back on my working days, I think What an Idiot I was ! like, who does have too work like, That ! must be a retard !
I was a Fool !
Some People say, that they would not change a thing of their past.

But When I think back, if I ever had to repeat such again, I would Not bother !
I would get a life !
Not become a Slave to idiots and fools in the creap show !
If I had to do such again, I would punch a lot of people in the face directly, as soon as they disrespected or tryed to use me ! or rip me off !

I was to good natured ! that was a fault of mine !

I would say that lucky that I road dirt bikes, I loved that ! or I maybe would of killed someone if I did not.

Their was a few times that some Builder came about and lucky such did not turn up an hour before or else, with coming that angle !
I remember that I smiled at one low life so called moron builder, because I would of grabed him directly and tossed him out the closed window of the 2 story house.

Another I felt that I would of smashed him in the face with a peice of 3x2 timber full on. because his intentions to outright undermine me, the first day on the Job !

Not to mention I feel I did the wrong thing because I should of done what I thought to do to them ! because They were outright evil ! and people like that need sorting out directly ! for their sake and everyones sake ! seriously !

So what is wrong with the world nowadays one may ask ? well Sin ! is the biggest Issue problem of all in fact ! and some people that have the easy road can not see past their own nose. but some Grubs full on know what they doing and it must make their day to do such !

I said to a Builder mate, One day you will come across the wrong person ! You know what he said directly ? No I Won't !!!

The Devil himself is a good bloke in fact ! but one has to truly understand where it is that such as he is coming from in fact ! he will offer you the World ! and put you in charge ? of his world ! for carnal dupes ! who only inslave themselves and all as degenrates !
He will give you Power so as too dominate over others, like Gay rights and child molesters etc being in powered in Schools to teach depraved nonsense and the Mum and dad have no rights regards their own children !

Now years ago that would never of happened ! because parents would not stand for such !

But we did see such tactics in Nazi Germany and Communist Nations in fact dominate over peoples children !

Socialism is all about owning the People ! to become their Government's Slaves !

The far Left is just as the far right, in that they want to feed you all like mushrooms and keep you in the Dark ! They are much like a small rudder on a Ship, of Fools !

That's why you all need Salvation ! so as too open your eyes ! and be worthy of Christ Jesus ! or you are just a Slave to Sin ! The Government will tell you what is correct or incorrect ! for they have a Politicaly Correct god that they clearly Idolise in fact ! I have seen such open displays of devout devotion that are up their with the likes of the worse Nazis and of Stalin himself ! not that the say that, but they show the same zeal !

We climb the ladder thinking we climb the ladder. When in reality we are that simpler being...and to actually climb the ladder--we need a Hand.

On the red you are exactly right.

Consider reading the first 3 chapters of the Bible and especially the Genesis 3 chapter.

Mankind was created to live in Paradise in the presence of God, a place of peace, harmony, love, a place without death. Then Adam & Eve were seduced by the devil and instead of listening to God -- DON'T GO THERE -- A&E wanted to be like God in knowing not only good but also the knowledge of evil, they actually insisted to know.

And the Lord God gave them what they desired, He kicked A&E out of Paradise, away from His presence and they landed on the hostile evolved Earth where death rules as a necessity (without death Earth would be an unbearable place after a couple of months without insect death, one big buzzing place), where there are earthquakes, volcano's, giant storms, terrible diseases, terrible wars etc. Yep, a perfect place to learn about good and evil, exactly as A&E desired.

So we get a limited time (a blip in eternity) to learn and to decide where we want to live after this life, back in Paradise in His presence or choose for a not so pleasant alternative. God's goal hasn't changed, we are created to live in His presence in Paradise. And Jesus is the key as He said to the repented criminal next to Him at the cross just a few hours before His death - And he [Jesus] said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise. And so the circle was round for the criminal, just in time.

Indeed, we not designed for this often cruel kind of life, we are designed to learn and make a choice.

Hope this helps.

I think we have alienated God. What I mean is, God has not alienated us yet we are convinced he has alienated us and needs appeasing. His message to us in the person of Jesus is that God is very fond of us. He gives us a never ending stream of gifts.

The anxieties men experience are because of their perception that God is a threat and no matter what they do he is not appeased.

Our view of God is a lie. We need to stop for long enough so we can see the tenderness with which God views us.
In seeing this and trusting it (believing) peace is established in our hearts.

I think we were created by God to trust in Him. The more you trust God, the less anxiety you will feel.

Much love!

… they're not designed for this kind of life.

What do you think?

The designed aren’t living as the designer intended.

I think your language is becoming more and more distanced from agnosticism. Have you noticed a change?

I can agree with that. We were created in paradise (Eden); that is our natural habitat. Living in our current fallen state is the cause of all fears, anxieties, stress, and general uneasiness. There's a longing in each and every one of us for something more. Humanity has tried to get back to that idyllic state on their own but have failed miserably because it's impossible without God.

I’m sure that’s true. I’m inquiring about one specific thing.
I think it was more of a figure of speech. I do tend to be more open to God in my drunken state. But he appears to not be very open to me, so to speak.

Thanks.

The one God himself says that he wants all people to be saved. That tells me that he’s open to you.
