An Idealogy created by men to keep people from straying from what they wanted them to believe. Fear can do amazing things to people.
Has any one ever seen Kali or heard her voice? Would God not explore different forms of Pleasure instead of always being in One? Could you eat pizza for the rest of your life?

Hum, indeed. i have often wondered how could a good and merciful, and all powerful and wise god such as Mithras would allow suffering, ignorance evil in the world. But i reckon, because there is suffering and evil in the world then that proves that Mithra is not good and merciful. If we reason that Mithra introduced evil and suffering and disease and death to us to make us better then we can reason that Mithra is flawed, and the god is not all powerful and wise. Therefore if you believe in such a god then you should have fear.
From a biblical perspective because he demands it and shows favour to those that do fear him. Ruling through fear is quite typical of tyrants and the biblical god is no exception.

I imagine it would be like that yeah.. But then Christians can be horribly insecure about their own good intentions, strangely enough..
hence any religious discipline that advocates "fear of god" as the ultimate relationship with god is far from perfectional. It may be good premise initially to install a bit of discipline or obedience, but such relationships cannot persevere.
I was meaning that a relationship forged on fear cannot persevere. In an eternal relationship of fear, something would have to give
Kaboom!!! Someone asked if I would kill if God told me to. No. I am me and God knows that. I would kill someone if they broke into my house and attacked me or I would be killed. It doesn't matter, I'll live as long as I am going to. I wouldn't kill for any other reason, if I could help it. Because to kill another is to kill your own spirit. Not entirely, but you do become spiritually retarded. That is not what I want, no no. Has anyone here ever seen the devil???
