@all: I used to be a Born Again Christian but I've "backslided." This is the term they use when you revert back to your old self. I really don't know what to call myself. I was born a Catholic but the truth is, I don't believe in any religion anymore. I do know that people have the power to see the future. Believe it or not, I saw a classroom scene in a dream when I was in 1st year high school. I saw familiar faces but I also saw unfamiliar ones. The only time I remembered the dream was when I actually experienced the scene when I was in 4th year high school. Maybe this power is stronger in some people. The question is, where does this power come from? X-genes? Aliens? God? Who knows? I mean a book titled "Futility" was published in 1898 about a ship called "Titan"
which struck an iceberg. 14 years later, the real ship "Titanic" did. Coincidence? No such thing in my book. We can talk about space-time continuum, astral travel (where our spirits can traverse time), etc and we wouldn't still be able to come up with an explanation to the "weird" things going around in this world. Of course, the question of what is "good" and what is "evil" remains? I'm no expert but I think "good" follows the natural order of the universe while "evil" does not. For example, murdering somebody is "evil" because that person's natural order has been deliberately severed. Killing somebody in self-defense is not because self-preservation is part of our natural order. If you can disable the person by not killing him, then that's up to you. That's what we all call, "free will." The person you killed out of self-defense chose his natural order. Murag ra gud ka ni-ambak sa dagat na puno ug shark. Gi tuyo nimo. Now, the question is, asa ka padung after death. Kani ang pangutana na di ko katubag. Naa ba dyud dako na video screen na makita na nag-masturbate ka? Na nangupit ka ug kwarta sa imo mama ug papa? Etc. Sounds far fetched. Did we sign a contract before birth that we should do this and do that? Ingon sa Bible na gihatagan daw ta "conscience" to tell us if we're doing what is right or what is wrong. Siguro tinuod ni pero what if gipanganak ka usa ka tribe sa jungle na pwede daghan asawa? Or pwede mu-kaon lain tao?
We can go on and on and discuss these things (Rapture, The Last 7 Years, signs of the times - famine, natural disasters, etc.) but it will not change the fate of the world or the behavior of people. There are just some things that we're not ready to know. Who decides whether we're ready or not, I have no answer. Basta ako mumata buntag, ligo, kaon, kiss sa missis ug anak goodbye, trabaho, balik balay, drawing kadyot, kaon, watch TV, ligo, make love kung dili kapoy, tulog, etc.
