>>42135949I’m a pretty good lucid dreamer. At the very least I can recognize when I’m in a dream fairly often and then start manipulating it. My dream manipulating abilities are inconsistent. I usually just waste my lucid dreams either on sex or flying until I forget that I realized I was dreaming to begin with and the dream carries on as usual. Sometimes though I can have more control over the world of the dream, and create amazing songs and movie like scenes that I can fully control and even rewind and replay and change and stuff. It’s all pretty natural for me. I’ve never been able to astral project or go to the astral plain through meditation or any of that stuff no matter how hard I’ve tried. I once saw a guy getting interviewed on YouTube about it and he said that one shortcut to the astral realm was to catch yourself in a lucid dream and then just tell yourself “I want to have an out of body experience! I want to go to the astral plain!” etc over and over until you left your body. I tried that a ton of times but it never worked.

Come discuss the worship and conjuration of Ishtar, Inanna, Aphrodite, other historically related deities/spirits, and their entourages. "Appearing in more literary compositions than any other deity, Inanna embodied endless complexities and contradictions: an unbridled goddess at once upholding and destroying the status quo; a passionate goddess engaging in romantic and destructive erotic love; a heavenly goddess who trod the underworld; a feminine goddess who was sometimes portrayed as a bearded warrior; and a mercurial goddess bestowing tender mercies even as she moved freely from one conquest to another.""[Astarte] is often paired with Baal and also — in a warlike form called Astoreth — with Set. The Mesopotamian goddesses Ishtar and Inanna are other forms of this goddess. The mysteries of Inanna and Dumuzi, Ishtar and Tammuz, and of Astarte and Adonis, were an influence upon the Egyptian mysteries of Isis and Osiris, in which a Queen Astarte appears. Given the combined influence of the cult of Isis, and the Syrian Goddess, on the later Christian cult of Mary, Astarte is among the most influential and important of all Classical deities."If you're interested in working with the Queen of Heaven, the best things you can do are to start meditating, making offerings, and maybe banishing. Preferably do all three daily, or at least a few times a week. This will get her attention and improve your ability to communicate with her, as well as generally train your occult abilities.Pastebin: pastebin.com/SQmZvivkOther recommended resources:Enheduanna and the old Mythsmostlydeadlanguages.tumblr.comRod and RingLioness: The Song of InannaLiber Astarte, on worship: sacred-texts.com/oto/lib175.htm/sum/moning Information Page, for Goetia to work with Astaroth: pastebin.com/ZHPM0KVzComment too long.

>>42142553Also I wouldn't consume anything you offered to the gods. Throw it or dump it out.
>>42149378It is my understanding that you and many others adhere to Hellenistic practices and I respect that. I am sort of constructing my own personal practice with Lady Ishtar and I tend to lean toward what ancient Mesopotamian practices I can find. In my research, I have found that in the ancient temples offerings were commonly used to feed the temple staff or the needy after rituals and observances were completed. In some cases offerings were handled similarly to a Hellenistic fashion, but typically they were consumed when the deity was done with it. I used to dump out libations to the ground before I was sure what to do with them but I began consuming the libations after one particular night.
>>42149610I had purchased a libation for Ishtar and I intended to offer it to her at the altar later in the evening. I was spending time near the altar hours before I had started any religious observance and I felt a sudden and strong instinct to immediately get the libation and offer it in the chalice. I take it as a direct instruction from the goddess herself. During this experience, I strongly felt she wanted me to do this so she could have many hours enjoying it and be finished with it by the time I completed my religious practice was completed with the intention of me to also partake of it. Later that night when I had concluded my ritual and prayers, I spent time thanking her for everything as usual and spent some time meditating. I had that inkling she wanted me to consume the libation but I was very apprehensive about it as I feared it could be disrespectful. I spent a lot of time thinking about it and eventually felt she approved and might be displeased if I didn’t act on whatever she made me sense earlier so I respectfully but apologetically drank it. After consuming it, my anxieties about the matter vanished just as Ishtar always dispels my various stresses. I felt I had her approval and blessing and it is a practice I have been engaging in ever since. It is only now that I feel completely comfortable with it because of the feelings she gave me from direct experience combined with my new research that the ancient Mesopotamians did consume offerings when their deities were finished with them.

>The Noahide Laws are a set of seven universal moral laws in Judaism that are believed to have been given by God to Noah after the flood. These laws include prohibitions against idolatry, murder, theft, and sexual immorality, as well as the obligation to establish courts of justice.>Do not eat flesh torn from a living animal >Prohibition against cruelty to animals and consuming their flesh while alive.Genesis 9:9-10 (In your preferred KJV) "And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you; And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth. And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth."God established a covenant not only with humans, but with every beast of the earth as well.>There isn't anything in that bible that suggests beasts have any kind of preeminenceEven in the KJV, it says, as I just quoted, "yea, they have all one breath; so that a man hath no preeminence above a beast." And notably in the Hebrew the word translated "breath," ruach, is the same word translated "spirit," in the verse under discussion. Man and beast all have one spirit.

My objective is to present the miracle case for Catholicism in a way that is rigorous enough to persuade those that are strongly predisposed towards skepticism. That means empirical data has to be inferred from primary sources and every skeptical explanation has to be excluded by multiple lines of evidence.In this article, I focus on the evidence for the supernatural charisms of St. Pio. In the first section, I argue that skeptical explanations of his stigmata are not tenable. In the second section, I argue that skeptical explanations of his extreme hyperthermia are not tenable. In the third section, I argue that skeptical explanations of his healings are not tenable. In the fourth section, I argue that he was heroically virtuous. In the fifth section, I conclude the best explanation is that his charisms were divine vindication of Catholicism. In the sixth section, I respond to objections to that conclusion.This article is much longer and more thorough than previous installments of this series. Nonetheless, I barely scratch the surface of the available evidence for the charisms of St. Pio. There are many charisms that don’t receive their own section (scrutiny of hearts, bilocation, levitation, radiance, prophecy, etc…) even though they are supported by overwhelming evidence. Moreover, I only discuss a fraction of the available evidence for the charisms that do receive their own section. This article should be regarded as a representative sample rather than a comprehensive summary.https://motivacredibilitatis.substack.com/p/st-pio-of-pietrelcina#_
>>42149643>>42148865In Matthew 12:32, Jesus declares “And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.” Now, generally Christians interpret blaspheming The Holy Spirit as being a poetic way of talking about remaining rebellious against God. But it seems a more natural reading is simply that blaspheming The Holy Spirit (which is, assuming the trinity was a later development, closely wrapped up with the father) is something unforgivable.In Matthew 12, Jesus says:46 While he was still speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers[a] stood outside, asking to speak to him. 48 But he replied to the man who told him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” 49 And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”This seems…oddly mean. That’s no way to treat your mother and brothers! I don’t think this is a decisive proof, but if Jesus’s moral character is to tell us about Christianity, him appearing petty or vindictive will be evidence against Christianity.I could give many more examples. Once again, the examples I’ve given have come almost exclusively from casually reading a few chapters of Matthew. Certainly the best examples would come from a more comprehensive survey of the New Testament, which is filled with bizarre claims. For instance, John 6 declares:
>>4214886552 The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”53 Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.Certainly the notion that we’re supposed to drink Jesus’s blood and eat his flesh seems quite odd. It strikes me as very bizarre and improbable on its face.When one considers the ubiquity of these bizarre passages—which must be explained away—it seems there’s a very powerful cumulative case against the perfection of Jesus. In particular, let me list three of the kinds passages I find the strongest evidence against Jesus’s moral perfection. So far I’ve surveyed just a few chapters to show the ubiquity of these odd pronouncements—here I’ll list the most troubling.First, it seems like Jesus incorrectly predicts the second coming happening in his lifetime. David Bowen writes:The basis for this view of Jesus is found in the gospel writers. Five particularly important verses are all found in Matthew. “When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. I tell you the truth, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes” (Matthew 10:23). “I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom” (Matthew 16:28). “I tell you the truth, all this will come upon this generation” (Matthew 23:36). “I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away” (Matthew 24:34-35). “But I say to all of you: In the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven” (Matthew 26:64).
>>42148865Probably the most decisive passage comes from Mark 13. In it, Jesus declares:24 “But in those days, following that distress,“‘the sun will be darkened,and the moon will not give its light;25 the stars will fall from the sky,and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[c]26 “At that time people will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory. 27 And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens.28 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 29 Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it[d] is near, right at the door. 30 Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.Now, one can posit that Jesus was really foretelling of more immediate events that would be fulfilled in his lifetime. This is Bowen’s interpretation. But this seems rather ad hoc. If you simply heard the sentences displayed above, the most natural reading would be that the end of the world, wherein the Son of Man comes in all his glory, sitting at the right hand of the father, is imminent. This is particularly strong evidence against Christianity because such pronouncements are likely on the supposition Jesus wasn’t divine; at the time, apocalyptic prophets were relatively common.
>>42148865Second, Jesus seems to endorse a morally objectionable antagonism towards one’s family. We’ve already explored this in some detail, but perhaps the most explicit statement comes in Luke 14:26, where Jesus proclaims that “If anyone comes to me and does not hate father and mother, wife and children, brothers and sisters yes, even their own life such a person cannot be my disciple.” Were one to hear this sentence out of context, they’d think the speaker a cult leader.Third, Jesus provides remarkably vivid picture of hell. I won’t describe in detail why I think hell is immoral I’ve already done that at considerable length. In short, I think the notion that most people deserve to suffer brutal torture is wildly implausible and would be recognized to be so in any other context. If anyone other than Jesus declares the permissibility of brutally tormenting much of the population, we would think this obviously immoral.Jesus declares that in hell “there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth,” and “This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace.” Matthew 25:46 declares “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”Even though, in this passage, the term for eternal can have multiple meanings, eternal is the most natural reading. It seems likely that Jesus, at least, believed in an eternal hell. At the very least, Jesus believed people would be cast into a blazing furnace and burn. Christians now endorse a version of hell where it’s self-imposed this is not the picture one gets from Jesus.
>>42148865Most alarming is what Jesus seems to claim will send a person to hell; Mark 16:16 declares “Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.” In Matthew 7:13 Jesus seems to indicate that most people will suffer extreme torment in hell, when he declares “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.”Similarly surprising on the supposition Jesus is divine: most of the things he said are the sorts of things one could have been expected conceivably to say at the surrounding period. There are a range of important things he could have said that would have clearly vindicated his divine claim. He could have described the germ theory of disease, thus going on to save millions of lives. He could have advocated for the position that animal rights are of vital importance. He could have advocated for the abolition of slavery.If Jesus were divine, he’d have likely provided many important messages that were not obvious to the people of the time. The fact that he had no messages that seem like they couldn’t have been devised by a person of his time period is surprising.Now, it’s true Jesus provided some teachings that you wouldn’t expect someone of the time to make. Someone in the surrounding time period would have been unlikely to command people to drink his blood and eat his flesh. What is puzzling is that while he had some clearly good passages and some weird passages, there are few passages that would have been extremely weird at the time but that are clearly good in hindsight. Many people say things that are strange what one would expect of God is commands that sound weird but turn out clearly right. It’s hard to think of many that Jesus uttered, that one could have been expected not to utter in the surrounding time period.
