The source of the problem is something which would take many threads and much discussion to convey - and I would not be given the chance here (and I am sure of that). So, I am merely trying to help people out in a lesser way, by at LEAST pointing them in the right direction, away from delusion and evil.

I do understand why. It is because of "religion" - which is a cancer on the souls of men and turns more people away from the truth than any atheist ever could.
Therefore, I COULD "begin" to explain what I know and how I know it. But I know full well, that I would not get more than several responses into my explanations and knowledge (much of which comes with actual experience), without attracting a hoard of satanic New Ager's which would (of course) mock everything I say until every thread or comment I made became so full with mockery and laugher, that any point I tried to make would not come through.
So these days, I tend to show up on a forum -- spit out as much truth as possible before I am lynched and then when I am no longer able to post because of the constant interruptions, I simply move along and try to share what I know with the next forum.
I would need months to explain what I know (n detail). I would need open minds and sincerity. However, the vast majority of people are incapable of behaving in such a manner, and the moment I'd mention "The Bible" (even if a Biblical reference was a foundational side note, and not my whole point), I would be labeled "religious". Of course, I am not religious, and I cannot stand religion, but the ignorant people of this world seem to hold fast to the idea that the Bible is a religion and that God is incapable of having it written for us (assuming that any person who holds such a view actually acknowledges God and isn't wrapped up in a fantasy of "higher self", "channeling" and "aliens").
Already on this forum, several snide remarks have been made about "preaching" and "Jesus" to my few of my threads and responses -- which I have so far ignored. They are of course, pokes, to see if I will response with a Biblical quote -- and I know what happens at that point. I know full well. The hoard shows up. But it just goes to show, that it is not possible for a forum that is loaded with New Age Movement disciples to learn the actual truth behind things.
I have been on other forums before. I was lynched at the utterance of "Jesus". However, even though I mentioned the Bible and Jesus (because it is absolutely necessary for me to convey the "rest" of what I have come to learn), my point was to show people the true reality be hind actual events and circumstances of the world.
I have never, to this point, been able to full explain my life story, what I know and how I came to know without being either lynched, banned, losing my temper (which I don't do anymore, but I used to), or simply being unable to post ANYTHING because a dozen or two of the forum members decided that they would follow every post and turn it into a circus. I am not personally upset by this -- only that I cannot get my experiences out to people.
I understand that I do not have much time left on this forum (after this post), before I am lynched. I will then, of course, move to the next forum and try again.
I would advise, that any forum looking for truth (earnestly looking for truth) set a policy that gang bashing people who derive their message from the Bible, be extended the same courtesy of those who preach the religion of channeling, tarot cards and aliens -- without mockery.
This is because there are many people on this earth who "have the truth: or at the very least -- a nice portion of it (literally from God), and have been shown the truth with both visions and personal experiences, along with a true gift of discernment according to God's word -- and it would not hurt anyone to at least let such people speak without being abused.
On any forum full of New Age people, any topic is allowed. Everything is tolerated (you name it) - except the views of anyone who mentions "Jesus". That says something right there. It is sad, because there are a LOT of knowledgeable people on tis earth, who are very intelligent, very wise and have experienced the most phenomenal things that want to share them, but feel as if they have to fit in with the New Agers to do so. However, I will not and cannot.
I can handle the odd joke and the odd snide remark. Don't get me wrong. I don't go around handing out flatteries either, if I don't agree with something. There is such a thing as "being frank" and I am not adverse to it. It's not that I am thin skinned. I am actually quite patient, but when the mockery gets to a point where conversation is literally hijacked (purposefully) and turned into a festival of laugher and one-upmanship to see who can be the most insulting, the message (or the attempt at delivering it) gets lost. That's the sad part. That's the frustrating part. I have a LOT to say, but I can never get around to actually saying it. If I just "spit it out" off the bat, I can't even get started before the threads become a circus.
I can even handle constant questioning (even though it's distracting), like people who want to test me on why I believe what I believe. However, any "Jesus" thread on a forum full of New Ager's (such as this forum) WILL be pulled down to the ground like a pride of lions on a deer.
Yes, I will combat New Age statements. I will offer my view that it's garbage (if I think a statement is). But I leave it at that. I don't hang around the thread and follow the person around day in and day out with 12 of my friends, doing everything I can for a laugh -- and to eventually have that person leave. That's just sad. I see it ALL OVER the Internet, and only ever happens to anyone who loves God -- which are usually genuine, honest and caring people who are sincerely trying to convey information, but then get all upset and flustered and wind up getting upset.
If I were running a large forum, I one of my policies would be that "debate" and "argument" is allowed, but group bashings and going "on and on" to abuse the statement of one person (no matter WHAT they were) would be strictly not allowed, because -- again: No one knows WHAT that person might "know", who they "are", where they got their information from (aside from prayer and the Bible), and what they may be trying to lead to.
Hint: It's not always: YOU'RE GOING TO HELL SINNER! (I would never say that anyway).
Let me say this: No one on this forum will find truth if they hate God. That's the truth. What people need to understand is that although the "church" (which is not a building -- it is "God's people") has fallen away (as the Bible said it would), and that the vast majority of people who say they are Christian are not, there ARE "some" people in this world who are not religious, but do have a relationship with the most high, and can understand the spiritual messages of both the Bible and spiritual origins of things that are happening in the world - and want to share it. But it takes time, sincerity and patience.
