I think it would be great if you discuss spirituality more often with famous. It would help slowly "spreading the message" and slowly raise awareness about God and Truth. JP would be really interesting, but it shouldn't be just with him.

Personally when I used Instagram for the very first time a year ago, it already gave me such a stimulus overload that I could feel my brain melt. I deleted after one week. It's scary because most people consider Instagram as normal Social Media App and don't question its effect on them. People got so used to it that they don't realise anymore how extreme the effect is on the mind. You can only really notice then when using it for the first time or after having a really long break to give your brain the chance to normalise itself. It really tought me that we should constantly ask ourselves where we got so used to something in our lives, that we don't feel it's negative effect on us anymore. Tik Tok, I don't even dare to touch..

Lol. I'm the most godly man I know You can keep your religious preaching for someone else. This is the wrong place for this.

No one can save you but yourself.

That is great to hear, I really wish you all the best with it and hope that it keeps improving for you! That would be interesting to hear why. I just like to use this term for example when I try to explain someone with a severe mental condition that they need to see a therapist for it to become better (because I know some people, that just don't like to see therapists for different reasons, even though they really need it). I like to compare it to any other illness that your body might have, like the flu or a broken leg and for these things you need to see a doctor as well. And then I point out that a therapist is basically nothing else, but a doctor for your mind.

Genetics are absolutely a major factor, that's why people who suffer from it seem so irrational to healthy people. They don't understand that those people cannot just simply think positively or think your way out of it. It's not a bad mood, it's an illness based on physiological and bio-chemical reactions in their body. Most - if not all - mental illnesses have a genetic factor as well as a factor based on environment / experience. Genetics gives you the foundation for whatever mental condition and then some traumatic experiences causes this condition to trigger.

Quite the opposite. If a suicidal and desperate mind hears that it is morally okay to do it, there can be a gigantic feeling of relief. It's like a ton of tense feelings of guilt and shame and confusion suddenly dissolve inside you. And THAT is exactly the moment, when the mind suddenly can start open up to the better things in life. Because now it knows, there is always a possible way out, if things get too bad. But the mind doesn't get locked on that idea. What makes mental illnesses and suicidal thoughts even worse, is that the person is stuck with this horrible thoughts and feelings and the desire to just end their suffering but at the same time, everyone tells them that it would be wrong or selfish and a waste or whatever, and that creates a conflict inside those already ill and suffering people, of which it's almost impossible to get out. Honestly I can tell some people here have never experienced a period of mental illness themselves or never had contact to a someone with those issues, let alone something as severe as like borderline, which is a frigging personality disorder! It's not just going away after a while, people usually have to live with it for the rest of their lives and it turns their lives into hell. Imagine to live in hell for decades where you get emotionally tortured and see no end of suffering. This is the place of which a person like this girl is coming from. I'm just a bit baffled here by some of the comments to be honest, which seem really not empathic and not understanding the perspective of someone like this at all. You can live in the best country, and in the wealthiest family in the world, it will all completely be worthless to you if you have a condition like this. And you can't just think your way out with a positive attitude or by just looking at all the good things in life. It's honestly naive to assume that.

Well said.

The media does not treat this "just for show". They treat this as a serious attack and will support Israel in this undoubtedly. I just hope they won't justify everything in the name of "self-defence" now.

This is a really good insight, thank you for sharing.

If you lose a war how do you want to continue your fascist regime, expand for more territory or continue the Holocaust? Of course they would have continued their insanity. Don't be naive. Mao and Stalin didn't start a war with the entire world (and Stalin was on the winning side of WW II anyway) that's why they could continue their bloody regime and more people died to it. Why the need to compare them to each other? Why the need to defend and downplay Hitler?

Only because the Nazis were stopped before they could cause any more harm (which they most definitely would have). Why are they the "bigger" fascists? They were all horrible. Why would you distinguish between those dictators? Be mindful not to use whataboutism or relativizations to defend Nazis.

sorry for not clarifying. I can see why this is not a good choice of words I simply meant that at its core each religious message is simple. Love one another, treat each other with respect because you literally ARE them. Obviously that's as far away from Nazism as it could get (because the discussion before was about the common ground of Nazis and conservatives). But as Leo already said, people think too little and follow too much, and they rather talk about the superficial stuff of religion, so all these teachings sadly become pointless. And people who claim to follow Jesus teachings fall into these right-winger traps.

@Yimpa The german nazis had the audacity to use footage of soccer fans as well as Rammsteins song "Deutschland" (which is ironically about their conflicted relationship to the country and why they cannot love it!) for their anti-gay propaganda!
