Awesome!
I did not see the end coming.

Sorry, this girl's message is beautiful. One thing I love about God is His incredible love, patience, courage, faithfulness, and general character. Another thing I love about God is that there is a hell and that the right people will go there. All the tears for lost loved ones will be wiped away and replaced with laughter and freedom from abuse. One day all heaven will laugh with God at the eternal infinite suffering of the damned. With joy. Out of reach of abuse, betrayal, & robbery. Bye!

Awesome point, godOWN3D, and I started to agree with you wholeheartedly, but then I had to stop and realize these things do not make us apathetic; our own insincerity, cowardice, laziness, and bad choices makes us apathetic. We would rather sit and comment on others' work than do work. We would rather lie to ourselves and make excuses saying we can't make a difference than make a difference. We take life as a spectator sport like the people on the cartoon movie WALL-E. Will we change?

I have to come clean. I actually laughed at the -4 rating and had hoped for much worse, but I would not write stuff like this if I actually hated people who were hurt or hated God or didn't believe in God. Most of my contempt is for fake Christians who give people cause to dislike God. And at the same time, I feel a wakeup call can help bring people to face their situation with God more straight on for what it is. I don't want anyone to perish. Neither does God. Well, I tried...
Anyway, what does ... ( 3 hours ago by danieljdick)
Anyway, what does all this have to do with the video? If we believe in a good God rather than an evil one, then our faith in God will drive us to do good things. Good things please a good God. But if we screw up ourselves, our world, our family, and our eternity, nobody is going to mourn forever regretting the fact they did not pander to us and give us what we want. If we go to heaven, we go to love. If we go to hell, we go alone and nobody will feel sorry for us. Harsh, but loving and true.
If we are apathetic ... ( 3 hours ago by danieljdick)
If we are apathetic, cowardly, lazy, or if we participate in Inquisitions, abuses, marital unfaithfulness, and such, we can try to say God made us do it, but that will not go well for us when we have to face God, now, will it? God gave us blessings and life and gave us the grace and ability and desire to do something great, and we can. Or we can watch people on TV and pretend we're one of them but do nothing. Or we can pay others to sin for us. Would God call our bluff maybe? I think so.
Anyway, sorry, ... ( 3 hours ago by danieljdick)
Anyway, sorry, enough preaching. Nice video!!!

Exactly. It takes more than just hope. It takes talented people with a real determination to make a difference. Don't see a lot of that around the place
Only if we see ... ( 2 hours ago by godOWN3D)
Only if we see something in it for us will we make the effort it takes to mae it reality - and the corporations leading our generations have no desire to see us change in that way
To paraphrase ... ( 2 hours ago by godOWN3D)
To paraphrase Newton - an object at rest stays at rest unless something outside it makes it move.
i like this vid - it briefly made me feel fuzzy - kinda like an episode of Oprah where she gives away toys to needy kids... It even made me feel like doing something good for a few seconds.
But then it just irritated me. Will we change? Not without something really powerful forcing us to... Another Great Depression, a world war, the return of the Cosby Show?

What was the first thing you said? the stuff that got screened out by the people who couldn't listen to a little harsh reality?

This is the root of our problem.
In our current way of life - the one where corporations can influence election outcomes by funding the politicians who support corporate greed, where they can control the media to make sure the ignorant masses do as they are expected - we do need money.
But money is only a recent invention. We don't need it to be happy.
We do need selfless people to change the system to stop us from becoming the first half of the poem.
