No I have not. I will look it up, do you have a ready reference?

Here's one article about it:

flo, have you ever been tested for schizophrenia?

He doesn't strike me as schizophrenic; just manic, dim and lacking awareness of his own condition and behaviours.

he is disorganized and sprouts word salad. :P

If Judas Iscariot was destined to betray Jesus as per Daniel and Isaiah in order to complete his part of Prophecy, should he then be condemned for doing what he was hardwired to do?

Have you heard about the Gospel of Judas?  It asserts that Judas's act was not a betrayal, but rather an act of obedience to the instructions of Jesus.
Yes, but Judas still erred gravely- just as men who follow their wives' instructions not to make a big deal of major gift-giving holidays and celibrations err gravely.  Judas should have known what Jesus REALLY wanted him to do.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

According to the gospel of Judas, he did know what Jesus wanted and he did it, even at great personal cost.

Quote from: http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/gospel/feature.html
The “secret account” gives us a very different Judas. In this version, he is a hero. Unlike the other disciples, he truly understands Christ’s message. In handing Jesus over to the authorities, he is doing his leader’s bidding, knowing full well the fate he will bring on himself. Jesus warns him: “You will be cursed.”

Lol, I was just joking, Callaway- I get the basic principle behind the gospel of judas (it was a crappy job but somebody had to do it).

Oh wow. That's actually a really big deal to me. I had not heard of this.

You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

Is it a sin that I enjoy fucking up?

Not if hell doesn't exist.

I went to the local small bookstore in Benicia yesterday before work and did not even have to order the Gospel of Judas, they had it in stock.  :thumbup:  If I could make good money working at a bookstore I would do it. The last religious related book I read was In Search of Zarathrustra and that took 2 months or better. Since I am more familiar with Christianity than Zorastorianism this should go quicker, a lot of the book is commentary and brushing up on the Gnostics might be helpful, the text itself should not take long to read through and do a quick initial evaluation. Now I'm undecided about finishing Journey to a Revolution (about the 1956 Hungarian revolt against commie scum) or jump right into this new one. :green:

Great grandma's Christmas decorations were there before I was born and will most probably be there when I'm dead. A human life is shorter than that of a Christmas decoration.

  Likewise the house I currently live in.  I was looking around my (now-clean) kitchen after the
  mouse occupation, thinking that the house will outlive me, that I am temporary and ephemeral.
  When my body dies, will there be anything left of me to feel how ephemeral I was/am?
  Will I know I'm dead?  Will I haunt my current house, or will I return to my childhood home?  :boo:
