Please do not take it too literally. 😆 The truth of the ten worlds is not black or white. As you grow, you will understand how the ten worlds work, for now simple understand that you have control over which world you go too.

But... why would you not take your own religion seriously? I just fail to see it actually existing. Sorry.

Do you think that literal and serious mean the same thing?

Because they dont.

Heaven is easy to get into. All you have to do is truely believe that Jesus died for you.

...

Very good.

I feel like you're taking the meaning too literally, as if we physically jump into a whole new world (A new fantastic point of view!) each time we enter a new emotional state. But that's not what it's saying.

fantastic indeed.

Oh... good point. o.o'

But still, I just think you should take your religious both literally and seriously. Otherwise, why have a belief in that religion you know?

Because theres more to religoin than senselss dogma. And the dogma is not the important point.

If you do that, then you miss a lot of the truth. There are some trues in life, that cannot be spoken, so we tell parables. This is what Jesus did to teach a deeper truth. If you only listen to the story, you will miss the meaning.

Because the stories of religion are meant(generally) to convey points. Not convey what actually came to pass. Like any story, they use analogies, allegories, etc. to teach a lesson.

Its mythology, parables, fables, etc. Stories with points.

I wonder how many different ways we can state this? Shaky didn't use the word "point", so points(ha!) for him.

intentions?

I was being sarcastic, not literal.

Jerk.

Yes. Way to resort to bashing.
