Faith and disbelief, God and atheism, caste and equality are twinborn foes.
When one is born, the other rises to challenge it.

Masjid toot Jaaye toh Gunah,
Dil ko Todna Sawaab Samajhte hai,
Aey Khuda Tere Bandey Ajib hai
Amal kuch bhi ho Sajde ko Sawaab Samajhte hai
Main Ghabra Gaya hu Aisi zindagi se Khuda...
Jahan Rasmo ko log Imaan samajhte hai
Mai Khaamosh Ho gaya
Jahan sach kadwa lage,
Wahan Log sachaayi ko Gunah samajhte hai.

So you are MUSHRIK since your creator is also DAI.
BTW if DAI is a creator why does he ask everyone to read GHANO JIVO GHANO JIVO since he creates the life.
The more you open your idiotic mouth the more you shows how stupid you are, May by Zinger and DBL needs to counsel you about your postings
Where is Adam and Progticide to reply to this DAI created creature.

When you lay out all possible pathways, no matter how ridiculous or counterintuitive they may seem, and sort the multitude of data, events, and actions upon their appropriate piles, a new reality may emerge to compete against your own bias. It is your ability to believe and amend your belief system, which separates you from the masses. “The task is not so much to see what no one yet has seen, but to think what no body yet has thought about that which everyone sees.” ~Arthur Schopenhauer, 1818 ~

The devil was talking to his friends when they noticed a man walking along a road. They watched him pass and saw that he bent down to pick something up.

- What did he find? – asked one of the friends.
- A piece of Truth – answered the devil.

The friends were very concerned. After all, a piece of Truth might save that man’s soul – one less in Hell. But the devil remained unmoved, gazing at the view.

- Aren’t you worried? – said one of his companions.
- He found a piece of Truth!
- I’m not worried – answered the devil.
- Do you know what he’ll do with the piece?

As usual, he’ll create a new religion. And he’ll succeed in distancing even more people from the whole Truth.

The tale about the little fish

#199

Unread post by Conscíous » Sun Sep 15, 2013 4:56 am

This fish went on a quest to find the meaning of "water" a mysterious force, or power, or quality, of which he had heard much but never ever seen.. Everywhere he flew, this little fish, he heard different stories, different legends, fables, and opinions.. But none of them ever seemed to agree, and so they only confused the fish all the more...

Water was the source of all life, said one..
Water is the figment of fools* imaginations, said another..
Water is everywhere and nowhere, and cannot be known directly, said a third..

When the little fish plucked up his courage and approached the wisest of all creature, the blue whale, he received only deep thunderous laughter for his response.. Finally, the blue whale settled down and told the fish the following;

"My dear little fish, I fear that nothing I can say will ever satisfy you..
If I told you what water is, and where to find it, you wouldn't belive me..
And if you did belive me, you wouldn't understand me..
I can only say that the answer is to your seeking is closer than you know."

Not to be discouraged by the such cryptic ramblings, the little fish continued on his quest. One day, his seeking reached such a fevered pitch that, unaware of what he was doing, the little fish threw himself out of the water and onto on dry land!
For a time, he thrashed and flailed there, in a paroxysm of terror and despair. And as he took his first and last gasps of air, his death but moments away, he realized, in a flash, what water was!!

"The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or be so dependent upon its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of people, mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system, will bear its burdens without complaint, and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests."

THE FINAL INTERVIEW WITH GOD

THE FINAL INSPECTION

The soldier stood and faced God,
which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.

'Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?'

The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
'No, Lord, I guess I ain’t.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.

I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.

But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.

And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.

I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.

If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand.

There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.

'Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell.'
