What is Love?

Finaldesire,

You do know that Magenta is one of the most highly respected members here, correct?

I'm not sure why you seem so insistent on criticizing people on this site.

I've read your posts in which you have publicly stated that you are angry about the way Christians have treated you in the past. I'm very sorry about this, but I can't also help but notice that you have also posted about your battle with schizophrenia as well.

I am very sorry that you are struggling with this, but I want to ask you point blank: Is it you, or your illness, that is causing this criticism of people you don't even know?

You seem to be consistently accusing people of supposed spiritual wrongdoings that only you seem to perceive for yourself--and I'm curious as to why.

Is that piece of burnt toast for your avatar a graven image?

i meant to say isn't

whoops

Toast is acceptable.

However, grilled cheese is definitely a pagan shrine and must be avoided at all costs.

A graven image is a representation of 'a god' but not of God itself for the express purpose of worship. A painting of Jesus is not a graven image because He is fact God and if that helps a person to focus on God for the purpose of worship that is very much a good thing in my opinion.

Tastes good with tomato soup though. It's not pagan as long as the soup is Campbell's.

this is my favorite Magenta..

I worked on this one this morning for Rosemary,
and then posted it again for Monnkai

My old fears
Have turned into courage,
and
Those terrors that haunted me
Into the night,
I wrapped them up in Wisdom's Cup
and
Burned them in The Light...

Magenta,

it would be wonderful if you expanded your expression of your 'love' for your Saviour in a
different way, something like a '360'...in a special and unique way, for talent is something that
is a continual growing process...another STEP of artistic expression...

sorry, couldn't resist:
(it's a children's story--most ppl have heard of harold and his crayon--)
my mother read it to me...
i think the moose was skiiny,so he drew some pies for it to eat! saw the play in Seattle several years ago--
