I've certainly called you some of those names but I don't fit into the description of these people you're describing, neither does Andrew Torba of Gab or Alex Jones of InfoWars. I actually find myself in agreement with some of the things you are saying but I don't take it upon myself to help you as you've generalized above. I've learned that's very foolish. I only hope you realize you aren't a victim. Sometimes it sounds like you choose to be. Alot of what you're describing is grossly exaggerated, and most things online equally so- by believing this you are perpetuating the very same limiting and isolating views, sickness if it were, that you speak against. I'm not saying YOU I'm saying anyone that chooses to make such assumptions. Be they Christian, Hindu, man or woman. Its better not to spend so much time and energy worrying about others especially based on limited assumptions.
Despite past experiences, some people will surprise you. I find it more liberating to apply compassion, forgiveness and to seek understanding through common ground. Not that we are always able to practice these qualities, it's obvious when our impulsive and egoic reflexes have won the battle in our minds. But we can help remind each other what's most important.
Despite someone I love calling the person I cherish and find most inspirational a false prophet- I do not isolate myself from her or assume she is stunted in her growth. I've seen her desired path lead to spiritual understanding touted by the very same master she's once condemned. I've seen animals lovingly run up to her and by the power of prayer she's revived an animal. She's receptive to me, and without my needing to try and prove anything about what is right or what is wrong- we are able to live, learn and love. She is very traditional with biblical scripture. But even you called her a Yogi when I shared a photo of her here.
I understand most westerners who are bound to old biblical tradition(and I think this majority falls with your generation or those before mine) they are moreso scared by what they don't understand. I've learned people who are scared can lash out in very aggressive and disappointing ways.
The thing about disappointments, I don't let it get in the way of living the life I choose. I choose not to give up, to continue seeking god in all and serving to the best of my ability- if I fall, I get back up. There will be more disappointments in this life and there will be even greater rewards. I have faith, I believe in life after death and I believe despite religious or political differences people deserve a chance. As long as there's people like us willing to give others a chance, we're doing the world a great service. The noise I disagree with becomes just that.
There are regular everyday people on gab who believe in one thing and one thing only, Love. To them, that's most important. They don't care who you are- they don't care if you're great or if you're low. All that matters to them is sharing goodness. What you're seeing and experiencing is definitely a reality, as well as what I'm seeing and experiencing. I stand by my original reply after you said you were happy for me. That is this, despite our differences we will arrive at the same place. I'm noticing a secret light language a unique phenomenon. Spirit is speaking through us, for us. I've been noticing it since finding your stink bug totem post. Are you seeing it? You will!
Brother we're going to be labeled no matter what we do. I hope you're finding ways to enjoy the ride.
Kind regards
PS, I just typed all this with swipe to text(one finger) from my phone. Wow... Getting tired, sorry for any typos!
