I have to confess the more I attempt to understand steemit, the more I feel like I am incapable of getting it! It's kind of depressing and I have no one near to me that I can discuss it with. Or, with whom to discuss matters pertaining to steemit. (for you grammar snobs who I am sure find me offensive.) Which is another discouragement to my pursuit of a steem lifestyle. I write like I talk which leads to many run on sentences that I throw semicolons at in hopes I hit some rule of grammar. LOL, it's not that bad, I hope! I digress!
Today it was my intention to really understand curation and it did not go well, at all. On top of that my computer malfunctioned and I lost the post I was attempting to understand. I can refind it but you know the search in steemit takes you outside steem to a google search. Why is that? It ends up taking you to really old posts which are no longer applicable. The good thing is I have learned to check the age of posts before I bother.
I am 55 and pre-internet with no millenniums at my continual disposal. They pop in and out of my world but are impatient and not really into helping mom with her steem trouble.
Last but not least I have zero following. Most of my posts are theology and I know what it is to be rejected. Or a preacher preaching into a void. "I'm keeping them away by the thousands!" I just want to help people consider God. For Christ's sake, for their sake. I feel like he is misrepresented, underrepresented and basically ignored in our society. That is a large part of what I have against Facebook: the lack of "Like" for anything about God, Jesus or the Bible. If one wants to ignore Him they should know what they are ignoring. Hence, what I see as my mission, my desire to put out relevant, accurate information about God. Leave it to me to pick such an unpopular topic, but it is what I know and study continually.
So, there is todays post. One, not too long, stupid and depressed rant.
Hey there, no need to go so much depressed! Take an upvote :)
If you post about theology then no need to question why you're ignored. Theology isn't an interesting subject for 99% of us and it's clearly not something you want to discuss on the net. You can't discuss correctly about anything too complex too personnal or too spiritual here, the writen conversation isnt made for that.
You're saying that if one is to ignore god he should know what he's ignoring. But you're mistaken here because you don't think about other people. I don't believe in god, so i dont need to learn more on him, he doesnt exist for me. There is no point into learning more before ignoring him, i cant learn anything: he doesnt exist!
You see the point? Its a bit like if I said that you need to learn more about the unicorns before ignoring them. Now you dont want to talk about unicorns because you KNOW they dont exist.
Same thing for god if you dont believe :)
Good luck though!
Thanks for making me laugh:) Thanks for confirming my point. If you look at the sky, He says, you know in your heart He exists.
Well how can you know better than me what I think or feel? ^^
I freaking don't think anything exists above us and unless you can demonstrate I'm wrong there is no chance for me to get convinced of the contrary.
If any god wants make me to believe in him he'll have to come right here and talk to me in person!
Wow, okay. I am pretty sure that is not going to happen but demons will speak to you anytime you like. I can refer you to another post of mine that may help.
Also, I was not trying to say how you think or feel. I was saying that God says you can tell He exists by looking at the heavens. I hope I did not upset you! https://steemit.com/growth/@sarabjones/why-spiritual-things-make-no-sense-to-you
