Is it normal to relax to a religious book?

This isn't uncommon, I think, but to get at his goat, I stressed my brother Ashley out by reading the Holy Bible as an atheist, but the truth is doing this helps me to relax, it strengthens my atheism so I can point out flaws in logic and untruths in the Bible. But my ultimate spiritual relaxation is but two: Tibetan Buddhist books and the thinking of theosophy, Boehmian theosophy, and the more I think this way the more I connect and explore all levels of reality, I even co-penetrate human with the divine, I find truth in this, extremely difficult as it is to creatively think this way I learned all that needs to be learned in theosophy, which is in 3s. But with Tibetan Buddhist books I get my relaxation, simply because I find that secularisation's a poison and the antireligious are crazy and the pro-religious are sane people. Think about it, being 100% antireligious when you try to disprove the religious can make you aggressive and it can drive you mad, and I'm talking about the atheists. People think my atheist preaching is evil, they think I'm an asshole, well I can assure you I'm not an asshole. Calmness and peace of mind, along with meditation, which I read and reread in my religious (Tibetan Buddhist) book helps me to relax more than a secular book, like a science book or a travel book, which has no comforting words, just stating the facts, both the secular and religious books are true, and the atheist books are true, and I can relax to a book called 'The God Delusion' whilst drinking a cup of coffee and smoking a hand rolled cigarette at night, is any of this normal?

      It's terrible, my housemate was an overload of problems and I can't stand how he hates the smart, fuck him! I was surrounded by idiots all my life, that's the difference between spastic people and sane people.

    I agree with everything you said. I'm not super religious. I dont believe much of the bible, but I do believe an intelligent force created us. Whether we were created in its likeness or possibly its something we cant comprehend like a computer. Seems to me its less likely that a bunch of cells came together magically to make a heart for pumping blood, lungs to provide oxygen, brain to control it, then an opposite sex creature to procreate. What told the cells to create these organs? Humans and animals are built like engines. Its so advanced that it seems less likely it happened bgy just chance.

      Because you're adding sperm you've planted a seed, it starts to germinate and create a miniature you, does that answer your question? And by the way you're wrong, I always said to an Ietsist, "you're wrong", there's no intelligent "force" that created you, only the intelligent genius who's your dad, admit it, you're wrong, tattoo "wrongest in the multiverse" on your forehead to see how sickeningly wrong you are, wake up to reality!

        Who designed the organs? How did they all grow to all have a individual purpose? Think of it at a cellular level. How did the cells know to create a heart to pump blood, lungs for oxygen, brain to control it?

          Because it's a seed and once it enters inside a woman's body, namely her womb it expands and develops into a human because it comes from a human, this isn't God's creation but the father's creation.

            You're not understanding what I'm saying or you're putting up a strawman. Im talking about the first humans.

            So again
            "Who or what designed the (first humans) organs? How did they all grow to all have a individual purpose? Think of it at a cellular level. How did the cells know to create a heart to pump blood, lungs for oxygen, brain to control it?" Something smart had to design it.

              The first humans, it's hard to tell, because it came gradually (from apes), you can't say that this is the first human because it happened gradually. Argument from design, just because something looks designed it doesn't mean it's designed, it's produced by nature, there was no designer.

      Yes that's exactly what I meant, I relax when the war over my religions and my anti-religions starts, this doesn't mean I will die on a sword poked in me for it, far from it, no one's except atheists and antitheists thinking any of this is evil. However it's when I read religious books for lessons on peace of mind that I will relax. My religions are innocent religions, they don't start wars.

    So your an athiest who reads religious books for fun? That sounds dumb to me, but if you have nothing better to do it won't harm you. At least your not as dumb as the gullible cunts that actually belive in that horse shit and base their life off it.

          Good to see that you're doing well, Hans. Stay on the lithium, and check in occasionally with a good post like this one.
