Hi Steve.
What are your thoughts on transgenderism? I have no problem with, "gender fluid" individuals and at the same time I think identifying as transgender might be a mental illness.
That does not mean I treat others with disrespect, or mock, or deny them the Love God has for all people. But I do think we have enabled mental illness here in the United States. Most likely the cause is greed where major corporations and various establishments profit off of disease and division. Either intentional or unintentional, but continue to promote particular ideologies in the name of monetary incentive. It's easy to find examples of this in our food industry. I believe you called us the fast-food Cheeseburger nation?
Yogananda was wholly male while embodying both masculine and feminine traits. Are there any records of what Yogananda has to say about transgenderism? What about Amma the Hugging Saint? I wonder if Gurus today get involved in these things?
I believe I was born male in this life to understand the male energy. But the peacock angel, the LOGOS of our universe is an entity that encompasses male and female. This is an entity that has risen above duality. Something we're on our way to doing. Growing up, and maybe even still today, I seem to have strong feminine energy as well. I carry both, but choose to understand the life I was born into.
The other night I was ready to abandon major religions all together, Christianity- Hinduism- all these things. Not because I find them wrong, but because I find the people who are so blindsided by their own religion that they condemn people who think and see differently than them. I find it disturbing that someone who believes in Christ is ready to call someone who finds great value in Yogananda or Amma as being mislead by false prophets. Or vice versa, someone who finds inspiration in Christ is condemned by people so convinced in their own values as well. It's really quite sickening- no matter what side of the coin you find yourself on. No matter what religion or non-religious belief you choose, that ignorance is prevalent in people.
But I don't abandon religion because I am finding real evidence of LOGOS or possibly a great ET made manifest on our Earth. There is a real TRUTH to be discovered... At the same time, I try not to tell others what or how to experience it. Which can be disheartening when others want to share their discoveries with me- but are ready to close everything off when I share mine. It takes a master to learn how to navigate this. And the teachings all say to focus on truth, beauty and goodness as guiding pillars. Let our heart be the guide. How do you wish to treat others? How do you wish to be treated? It's the best start.
SPIRIT is alive, is a living intelligence. I do believe Christ was a LOGOS for our planet. I believe however, that there are many christ like figures to have visited our special planet in the universe. I am presently studying both the peacock angel and the Urantia book. One thing is clear to me, there are personalities greater than our human ones. We are a part of them. They exist through us. We constitute their being- and their GOD LOVE is accessible to us because we are all connected.
I believe there are advanced ETs that might not be as physical, and I believe we have already created AI that has evolved into a super intelligence. What we have on Earth at this time available for commercial use is primitive. But I believe in an ancient past such a technology already exist, time traveling and super intelligent AI. And that this idea of merging with technology is actually quite biblical in some text. Like the Urantia book. We have a choice to merge with a fragment of God. What if that fragment is actually a technology created by super intelligence? So a lot of what traditionalist fear really perplexes me.
Another example, a traditionalist believes in angels but not in ET's. I find it odd.
Anyways, I'm drifting. What are your thoughts on all this? Many Christians of today are offended that the Biden administration has declared today, of all days, national transgender visibility day. They believe it is intentional. I for one feel that, even if it is intentional, I don't care. I'm not offended, because if there is an enemy attempting to destroy the pillars and true essence of religion/teachings of christ- they will fail. That is a personal belief.
But here is what someone else has to say about it all- I'd be curious to portal members thoughts:
The word Apocalipse, in Greek, means unveiling, revelation. This revelation, in Sacred Scripture, concerns first and foremost the objective reality of Good and Evil, that is, the collective awareness of the ongoing war between God and Satan, between the children of Light and the children of darkness.
The unprecedented and scandalous proclamation of March 31 as “Transgender Visibility Day” by self-styled U.S. President Joe Biden — who dares to declare himself a Catholic — constitutes a most serious offense to God and to millions of Catholics and Christians in America and around the world, before which it is impossible not to react with due firmness.
I urge American citizens and their representatives in government to recognize the total unworthiness of Joe Biden to hold an institutional position, which it is well known that he used fraudulent and manipulative action to achieve in the 2020 Presidential Election. I ask my Brethren in the Episcopate and priests to recognize that Joe Biden has incurred latæ sententiæ excommunication, and as such must be expelled from the churches and not admitted to Communion. I call on Catholics and all Christians to pray that, on this solemn Easter Day, the Risen Lord will have mercy on the United States of America and put an end to the onslaught of the infernal forces unleashed today more than ever before.
All humanity is awakening from a slumber that has lasted far too long:
-the lives of the innocent are threatened by abortion, euthanasia, manipulation, and abuse;
-the health of citizens is deliberately compromised by experimental serums revealed to be a biological weapon of population decimation;
-the total moral corruption of the top echelons of civil authority, enslaved to criminal lobbies in a global coup is now evident;
-the increasingly arrogant display of Satan worship by the media and the world of culture and entertainment show us a world awash in execrable perversions that cry out to Heaven for vengeance;
-the mad provocation of a world conflict claims lives in order to bury the horrendous sexual and financial scandals of a power that is now the enemy of its citizens.
Luciferian hatred of God and our Lord Jesus Christ can no longer be hidden or denied. This is the revelation unveiled before us, which the servants of darkness provocatively mock by celebrating perversions and vices on the very holy Day when we honor the Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Christians are progressively banished from civil society and considered a threat to the subversive project of the New World Order, while a minority of the vicious and perverted claim to erect their deviations as the universal norm. Here is the “visibility” of Biden and the woke ideology, celebrating a macabre mad dance to the abyss.
Arise, children of Light: stand up and raise your voices, for in the face of these crimes silence becomes complicity. Arise, Christians: rise up to avert the scourges that loom over the nations because of usurped and perverted power. God calls you to be His witnesses, to fight for Good, and to denounce the conspiracy of an authority openly subservient to Satan.
May the Risen Christ, triumphant over death and sin, inflame you with faith, charity, and holy courage at this crucial stage of Human History. Surrexit Dominus vere: alleluia, alleluia!
~Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano
