I have given them out only to friends and family. Your name is somehow vaguely familiar. Maybe someday we'll find out where you got it, might be interesting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I'm revising this community to be more focused on Freedom and setting up another (&lt;a href="http://funinfitness.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://funinfitness.com"&gt;http://funinfitness.com&lt;/a&gt;) focused on Fitness. So been busy with that and my j.o.b. My new Fitness blog has taken most of my spare time along with twitter and facebook but this community is about to undergo a nice revision.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What is RScP and TLC??&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Rich Dunstan aka Dhanamjaya, aka Blissfit&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 12 Apr 2009 17:09:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Weary</title><link>http://atheists-and-christians.blogspot.com/2008/10/weary.html#comment-4198445</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Mike, who makes it interesting? You do!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Some Christians would not see it all that interesting and interpret it into whatever they want, just like Christian leaders have interpreted the Bible into what they want. For example, the core Christian belief of Jesus suffering incredible pain to pay the punishment price of His believer's sins or wrongdoing. That is an absolutely ridiculous way for someone of Jesus' stature to save people but that is what Christianity fervently preaches because that's the way they want to see it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You can make anything in life, and life itself, whatever you want it to be. It's called free will but you must be healthy in mind and body for your creation to be good and worthwhile. The main idea of the Art and Science of Funology page on my blog is: our Creator granted us free will to either feel bad and create problems or to feel good and promote our health, wealth and wisdom; the better we feel — the more miraculous our creation; the more pain or lack we feel — the more disastrous our creation.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 05 Dec 2008 00:07:07 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Weary</title><link>http://atheists-and-christians.blogspot.com/2008/10/weary.html#comment-4190630</link><description>&lt;p&gt;The present, the gift of right now, is fortunately what you've accepted more than most. And that's wonderful because how you feel in the present is all you ever will have as Truth. The way to full blown truth is to cultivate a truly healthy heart. That is, have fun in thought and action, exercise, eat healthy wholesome food. And as you continue sincerely believing in your unencumbered feelings you will be going more and more in the direction of Truth.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And if Jesus did exist as a representative of full blown Truth then you are following much closer to Him than most devout/zombie Christians.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I recently read in another Life Coach blog, “You are on this journey to learn to trust yourself.” Keep on trusting your unencumbered feelings and you will enjoy the True Freedom of Life. Life is Freedom.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2008 20:22:44 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Turn Christianity Right-Side Up</title><link>http://fortuneflourishingfun.com/blog/2008/10/20/turn-christianity-right-side-up/#comment-3461873</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Roger! Sorry for the delayed reply. I work a job on the weekends.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I revise my text and graphics here often although getting comments to respond to will take my focus there.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Are you now or have you ever been a Christian church goer?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;You will find my new email in my facebook profile.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jai Guru Dev for the rule of Silence (the Way and the Truth and the Life).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 03 Nov 2008 16:40:47 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Bewitched</title><link>http://refutingchristianity.com/2008/10/21/bewitched/#comment-3221850</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Couldn't read much of this, too spooky, and some of the cartoon text is too small for me. But I get the point you're making anyway.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am convinced that Jesus Christ did NOT suffer on the Cross and came to Earth to save us from our own wrath, because made in God's image we create every little detail of our life.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jesus did not have any modern miracles like the Internet or medical science to prove he did not suffer. Way back then the only proof he had for not suffering was to rise from the dead - let people see him walking around again after they saw him dead. Today modern medicine has discovered and defined endorphins as biochemicals hundreds of times more powerful than morphine. So why would Jesus not create a few endorphins to kill the pain during crucifixion??? His whole life he save everyone he saw suffer by performing a miracle. Why would he not save himself from suffering??? It was a no-brainer. He did not have any second thoughts like should I suffer or not suffer?!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;That's why I say on my blog that Christianity is upside down. All the fear mongering and brain washing comes from seeing their savior suffering or making suffering purposeful to the extent that if a Christian doesn't suffer, doesn't bear their own cross they wont go to heaven.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Christ came to earth to demonstrate that being made in the image of God means you have the choice to create whatever you want in your life. The tagline on my blog and Jesus' message for human life is, "Joy is certain, death is optional."&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 21 Oct 2008 23:18:05 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Weary</title><link>http://atheists-and-christians.blogspot.com/2008/10/weary.html#comment-3054048</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Have you read Conversations with God?&lt;br&gt;Walsch tells his story that how he got started talking to God was when he was at his wits end or you might say very weary.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 14 Oct 2008 19:12:04 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Weary</title><link>http://atheists-and-christians.blogspot.com/2008/10/weary.html#comment-3053276</link><description>&lt;p&gt;@ Mike and Matt&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Did you guys every watch TVs Laugh-In comedy hour in the '60s. They had this heavy set dumb looking Nazi soldier show up, now and again saying, "Veeery interesting, but stupid."  I know my comment above (Christianity is upside down) probably sounds stupid or moronic to most people.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But thanks for asking how I got there Mike. That is a very very good question, but I would have to write my autobiography here to answer it completely. I will make a few good points about it here and also recommend you guys take a look at my blog @ &lt;a href="http://www.fortuneflourishingfun.com/blog" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.fortuneflourishingfun.com/blog"&gt;http://www.fortuneflourishi...&lt;/a&gt; where I am discussing how I arrived at Christianity being upside down as well as where I am going with it. I am in the process of writing a book entitled Fortune Flourisng Fun and my blog is to help me write by discussing it with people around the globe. So any pro or con comments and/or questions you guys have are welcome.  Hopefully you will learn some useful things there as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In '73 I opened my heart to Jesus without any middlemen like Ray Comfort or Billy Graham. It was and always has been just Jesus and me without Bible study, sermons, church, or any kind of brotherhood. You see, I was born with Asberger's syndrome, which is a mild type of autism that gives people weak social skills. I have always shied away from social groups and gatherings because I feel very uncomfortable with them. However I am breaking through that know more and more.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Jesus and I have not had conversations, like Neale Donald  Walch in Conversations with God, but I know a lot of my ideas are coming from Him, aka the Way and the Truth and the Life. I feel Jesus organized many experiences and events in my life because He needs someone to turn Christianity right-side up.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As I said on Matt's blog the Way and the Truth and the Life is back enlightening people to the real value or truth of things. And your comments below say to me that the Way and the Truth and the Life has influenced your beliefs to be more truthful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As Miceal Ledwith, Biblical scholar and former adviser to the Pope writes, "If you believe it is as easy for us to read and understand the New Testament as it is to read and understand the morning newspaper, then you would probably have to concede that this is so. But the Bible, even the New Testament, comes out of a time and culture that is as far removed from us today as it is possible to imagine. Its techniques of communication have little in common with the techniques of the New York Times or The Washington Post. It is far more close to the techniques used by fiction writers of genius in our own day, such as JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis, or Jonathan Swift in former times."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have been trying to imagine how people could live in the time of Jesus without the modern conveniences (hot water, AC, toilets, internet, beds without cockroaches etc....) A big part of turning Christianity rightside up is knowing how stories can change a lot from one person to another, let alone from 2000 years ago and a culture it is hard to imagine. My therory is based on how the Greek word that has been translated in the Bible to faith meant something quite different from how we define it.  I think the Greek word translated must have some feel good or fun connotation to it. I wonder if the Greeks even had a word for fun.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And the word sin is a very interesting word. It is my conviction that the word that has been translated to sin from Greek meant something more like being dumb shit and hurting onself. Because if we have a definition of God being Almighty it is not possible to offend Him or do something He doesn't like; God made us in His image with free will so we have a choice about everything. You have choosen and created everything in your life without exception. Jesus chose not suffer, and it was an absolute no-brainer for someone who had performed miracles all His life to end suffering. Jesus even chose to come back from the dead. The tagline of my blog and a summary of Jesus' message about human life is: Joy is certain, death is optional.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Finally, you choose based on how you feel about something. If you feel good about it you will probably stay with it; and if you feel uncomfortable you will let it go. And as I discuss on my site the better you feel the more good luck and success you will have. And that is because you will be enlivening your almighty image of God.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 14 Oct 2008 18:34:29 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Weary</title><link>http://atheists-and-christians.blogspot.com/2008/10/weary.html#comment-3028828</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Christianity is upside down believing that Jesus suffered on the cross. It would be the ultimate irony that the Christian faith, with its core belief of Jesus suffering to pay a price, turned out to be the prophesied anti-Christ. Because suffering is anti-Christ since it is what He miraculously saved many people from His entire public life. And on top of the fact that by definition it is impossible for God to suffer, why would Jesus not save himself from suffering on the cross, as He did with every other suffering person, or group of people, He encountered?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Now the above upside down Christian belief further deludes devout Christians, as well as people in other religions, into preaching and believing the backward advice that one should look forward to going to heaven in the future as the result, or reward, of action in the present. Because as everyone knows, the problem with looking forward to results is it prevents or distracts one's full enjoyment of what he or she does in the present, and thereby miss out on the wise council of Ralph Waldo Emerson, who said, “The reward of a thing well done is having done it.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I propose Heaven and Hell are in one's present experience of good and bad respectively; and when we drop our body, and we are beyond time and space, Heaven and Hell will be the sum total of all the good and bad we experienced as an image of God on Earth. And if one has not done justice to his or her self, experiencing the wonders of living in the image of God, they will be remorseful like having sold a diamond for the price of spinach.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Blissfit</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 13 Oct 2008 17:00:05 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
