Yeah, no kidding! Most of these folks are not just happy, vagabond philosophers on a spiritual quest. They're homeless because they're too messed
up to take advantage of the many, many official organizations who get billions of dollars in taxpayer money to take care of the homeless, single moms,
or anybody else who is in dire straits. A lot of these people are liars, users and manipulators with a well-practiced line of bullcrap, who have used
up and alienated everyone in their families and all of their acquaintances. Real Charlie Manson types, looking for gullible people to take advantage
of.
Oh, sure, they might be Jesus Christ. But really, what are the odds?

His reason was that "you never know who it is- that homeless man could be Jesus Christ himself."
On the other hand, so might Donald Trump be Jesus Christ. He seems very Christ-like to me. After all, the
Original Jesus was not poor, by any means.

Bill wasn't poor. He was rich with knowledge and good will towards others.

Bill said Jesus saved Satan by dying on the cross. Satan is with God, and evil is mans doing. Bill had a look that I can't quite explain. When I was
on the right track, he would look at me with those eyes that were, well, divine. It was like he knew. He made me feel so peaceful and calm. He told me
to drink more tea, and less coffee. He never drank any soda. He drank tons of water. He kept the motorhome spotless. He wanted to get some food one
time, so I gave him $50 (I owed him $24, he earned it at $8 hr that I paid him for his help) and sent him to the store in my truck with all my tools
in it. He brought back the change. I kept asking if I was doing all right, and he would say, your faultless. I truly loved the guy. He was extremely
interesting to talk to. I would go out and interview him, taking notes. I was posting on a religious debate forum, and they were just attacking me,
not even listening to what I was saying. These were people who called themselves christians. I was flabbergasted. They weren't even curious. They
picked me apart about the battery acid cure to cancer, hence my thread about the onion. After about a month of abuse, I moved to this site. It's much
better here. I realize now some of the abuse was my fault, because I was trying to make them believe, but man they were mean. My horoscope keeps
talking about the heavens, divinity. It's like God is talking to me through the horoscope. Two weeks ago, I watched Oh God with George Burns. I never
watched it before, because I thought George Burns shouldn't act as God. But it was wonderful. I actually cried at the end. Imagine, a 6'1" 240lb
man crying at the end of Oh God. It was exactly what had happened to me, and how people treated me. But in the end, I realized it was all going to be
alright.
Bill said that Mary Magdalene was the mother of Jesus, and that she floated him down the Nile, and Jesus was picked up by a high ranking Egyptian
lady. I said, you mean Moses, right. He said, no, I mean Jesus. Jesus spent the beginning of his life in Egypt, and didn't return to Jerusalem until
later, to escape Herod. This was where he met the two thieves on the cross.
Bill said that the people of Easter Island brought their statues from another place, and dug big hole to stand them up. Each statue represented a
family. Bill said there is something under the ice in Greenland, and if we cut blocks of ice to use them to irrigate arid areas, we would find what is
underneath. Bill also said there is another world that exists under the crust of the earth. He said that Jesus never went to hell after the
crusifixion, and he healed himself. Mary Magdalene didn't recognize him because he changed his appearance. She only recognized him once she believed
him. He would talk about these things like he was there, sometime accidently saying I, instead of He, when talking about Jesus.

And you want a guy like this hanging around you? Okay, but when he's walking around in a sportcoat made out of your skin, think of me.

People tend to fear that which they can't explain. Money is not the root of all evil, fear is. If you were broke down on the side of the road one
night, and I passed by you because I was afraid you might be wearing a coat of someone elses skin, where would that leave you. Stranded. Trust God,
and fear doesn't control you.

It's not fear, it's common sense. I wouldn't blame you for not picking me up any more than I would blame you for not checking to see if a gun is
loaded by putting it in your eye and pulling the trigger.
Trust God, and fear doesn't control you.
I'd rather not put my trust in somebody (or something) so quick slaughter people en masse -- Old Ones, Flood, Sodom & Gammorah, etc. I think it
would be wiser to trust God, but keep some nunchuks handy.

Why are some people here allowed to put links to their personal websites in their signatures but others can't? Please U2U me your links.
BTW if anyone is interested in reading the bible, many people feel that the "New Living Translation" is the easiest to read and is most reliable to
the contexts of the original text. This translation follows the dynamic equivalence or "thought for thought" method of translation rather than a
more literal method.

Thanks elmo. Having trouble keeping up with requests to website.
It makes my heart sing to see people who are at least curious, and don't jump on the attack bandwagon. May God bless you all.
One day when Bill and I were working together, I was explaining the sine wave to him. He was paying attention, but somehow I got the feeling he
already new more than I could ever explain to him. Then a couple of days later I took him to the thrift store, thinking he might want to buy some
clothes or something. He bought two VCR movies. One was a latter day saints movie about Jesus. Another was a Power Rangers movie. After he watched
them in the motorhome, he brought them to me and asked me to watch them and see what I got out of them. I watched the Power Ranger movie first. It was
about an alien that comes from the future to plant a virus on earth. The leader of the power rangers Dad is the owner of a drug company who ends up
helping the alien spread the virus. Another power ranger comes from the future, and takes charge. He tells the leader that his Dad is going to die,
because it's his destiny. In the end, the Rangers Dad doesn't die because his son doesn't accept the destiny he's told about, saving his Dad and
the planet from the virus.
The movie about Jesus was about Thomas, and the fact that he had to see the holes in Jesus's hands to believe him. One part, Jesus draws a sine wave
in the dirt! Bill was telling me that there is more to the sine wave than what we currently understand, and blind faith is necessary to see Jesus, and
that we can control our destiny, rather than accepting what is told to us. Also, there are those who are trying to destroy us with viruses. All out of
$2 worth of VCRs.
He also really liked The Passion Of The Christ, saying, where did they get the people to act in that movie? Another one of his favorites was Harry
Potter. I watched some of it with him one night, when I drank one of the two beers he had saved. It took on a whole new meaning to me. I have about
600 books in my personal library, and he was always grabbing a new book to read, then he would come back and show me a passage about something, like
UFO's in Atlantis, amongst others. He said the government knows all about UFO's and are keeping secrets from us.
Anyway, last post for tonight. I have hidden the original notes that I took and only told one person that is outside my family about the location. If
something ever happens to me, they will publish them. There is some stuff about the government that Bill said I shouldn't discuss until the time is
right. I'm sure the government is watching. I have cable internet, and I keep getting these wierd beeping signals coming through my speakers. And
I'm getting clicks on my phone. And there are these funky telephone vans cruising around the neighborhood. I say, bring it on.

after reading your stories about bill it makes me wish i could meet him.
this guy sounds inspirational and i think its wrong that the people in power are where they are and bills on the street. we should have people like
bill in government and bush and blair should be on the street knocking back special brew.
where are the wise,honest leaders? are there any?
its true what they say: the blind lead the blind

Hi Stompk,
Can you explain this to me?
Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness: and let them have dominion over the
fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and
over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. Genesis 1:26
I have several different versions of the Bible and in each one God refers to "US", "OUR" and "WE".
Can you explain this to me?

Well, I personally don't believe this, not that I'm saying your lying, I just have a belief structure fundamentally different from yours.
Anyways, I just wanted to say that it was nice to see a religious toned thread that did'nt put anyone down, or tell people they were doomked if they
did'nt do this and beleive that.
Also, in your original post, you said you and your girlfriend were in bed, and decided this guy was a hloy man, so I gotta ask, why in the world were
you having a philioreligious discussion in bed, when theres, well other more fun stuff to do?

i'd like to share with you my opinion on the subject.
the hebrew language has male and female words to describe God
God also said " I am Alpha and Omega"
Its pointless trying to pigeon hole God as being one thing only, my beleif is that God is everything, every element in the periodic table that makes
up our universe.
i hope this helps
