On what information do you base this statement? |

It is a hypothetical question with its basis on that no one has ever proved that there is a God.
Many think they have and they are all different.
Belief in God is a belief. Thats cool and all but to follow a man without confirmation that this God is the same assumed God one believes in is just asking for trouble.
Why do you ask? |

I ask because I'm curious by nature and wanted to know more about what you are thinking.
What kind of confirmation do you think is necessary or possible? |

I'm just saying that for me the only confirmations i ever had were still just in my mind.
That doesn't make them confirmations. We don't really know anything. We think we do and we live accordingly but its when we take what we think seriously that we create more problems for ourselves.
Even what we expereince is subjective. It's personal.
It's why people fly planes into buildings.
Beliefs are fine, don't get me wrong....we need them IMO, but they are and always will be beliefs (I believe...lol)
Following someone elses beliefs is just asking for trouble is all I am saying.
Blessings, James |

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

well, "messengers of "God"" will generally provide messages from "God" that merely confirm what one already knows or believes. the mass mind channeling itself via a singular vehicle.
Oz never did give nothin to the Tin Man that he didn't didn't already have.
