Hey, at least he's up front and honest about what he believes. Act_of_Reparation Oct 2018 #8

And upfront with insults and condescension. guillaumeb Oct 2018 #9

I see you've dropped back in to talk about me. MineralMan Oct 2018 #10

I already did. guillaumeb Oct 2018 #11

Which creator? There are many. MineralMan Oct 2018 #16

My answer is consistent with the poem that is the subject of this post. guillaumeb Oct 2018 #19

I cannot ask Rumi. MineralMan Oct 2018 #20

Again, as my posts make obvious, guillaumeb Oct 2018 #23

Never mind, then. MineralMan Oct 2018 #24

We both have our own answers. guillaumeb Oct 2018 #25

You love this shit! PJMcK Oct 2018 #29

He appears to be a deist who calls himself a Christian marylandblue Oct 2018 #28

Well, of late, it looks like he's branching out. MineralMan Oct 2018 #31

Many formerly liberal Christians went further, like Gil. Bretton Garcia Oct 2018 #32

Thank you, Guillaumeb, as always for getting to the heart of why we all matter. cornball 24 Sep 2018 #2

Thank you. guillaumeb Sep 2018 #5

I am human. I am flawed. The life I've lived deserves no laud. So I pray cornball 24 Sep 2018 #7

What a stupid premise in the poem. bitterross Oct 2018 #26

Funny. The first two sentences are things you often say. marylandblue Oct 2018 #34

Look. See, they're not true when others say them. MineralMan Oct 2018 #36

Is that what the author meant? Voltaire2 Oct 2018 #35

That is my interpretation of Rumi's poem. guillaumeb Oct 2018 #37

Seriously? Voltaire2 Oct 2018 #38

It means whatever I say it means at the time I say what it means. MineralMan Oct 2018 #39

What is a name? guillaumeb Oct 2018 #40

I'm rubber and you're glue. Voltaire2 Oct 2018 #41

No, it was your responses that did that. guillaumeb Oct 2018 #42
