"What is the definition of GOD?"

I think GOD is a human perceived concept for an essence undefinable.

I have abnegated my previously established religion. Fortunately, at an early age, I understood what existence and life are and how great their difference is.

I believe in the dualist pantheistic idea that the universe and God is an identical force, and that everything, man and woman is unified with the cosmic God. Taoism holds the notion that Heaven and I were created together, and all things and I are one. Panendeism, especially in Hinduism, would have the same stand, God is the Universe, and everything in it. Everyone is God.

Is it because animals don't communicate the way humans do that you see them inferior? Be ashamed, you don't communicate the same way they do, so similarly, you are lowly, too. If we could only connect to the universal "essence", then language isn't really necessary to understand each other, in whatever life form, because creation has no voice, and vibration is the only immanent language in our brains which transcends all boundaries of existential beings.

When it comes to dealing with arguments about the Deity and religion, human beings should be free to find, know, and worship God in their own way. All views of God should be respected, so long as they do not cause harm or oppress the views of others.

One day, a superior asked me if I believed in heaven and hell and I replied no (not in the sense you believe those to be), and it seemed to be a great shock for her. I didn't expect her reaction as she would always say she's understanding. But I heard the different tone of her voice as she presented her Christian views and somehow, I felt insulted. Why then should I explain myself to people?

As long as there is religion, as long as people blindly follow the beliefs HANDED DOWN to them, as long as each one thinks he's right and the other's wrong, there'll be war. Throughout history, Disparity in religion have always created violence. Love for peace and humanity doesn't need you to conform to any institutionalized religion.

It's heartbreaking to hear about these continuous break-ups in humanity.

I know this might creep you out, but some have also considered this. There will be another major World War in addition to those in the Islamic States within the next 20 years. I don't usually believe in everything I say about the future, but I can't deny the ill premonitions I have, just like many times before. Nations will break apart. Globalization will also mean battle for humanity's sake.

I just want a peaceful and progressive country, not totally perfect, under a leader whose values are incorruptible.

Poor Filipinos, woe to you my countrymen! How could you lower your principles to a sickening level that you would rather consider the honesty of someone's immorality as admirable? Why have you stooped so low, the country's future is not one you see in action films, and the citizen do not deserve a life less inhumane and laws not near to being unconstitutional and moral? Are you all so hopeless and helpless? Change in the government starts with you and not with who you put in charge. What would become of the nation?

I miss the beaches of the Philippines--the smell of brine in the breeze as I idly stroll along the shores, the biting saltiness of the seawater on my lips and eyes as I dive into the cool depths below, the sight of underwater life forming a mirage of a distorted rainbow, the fine sun-heated sand sticking between my toes as my feet sinks into it, the clouds languidly moving in the clear azure sky, and the delicious aroma from grilled fish and meat for lunch.

If you're travelling to the Philippines on a budget and expect to experience authentic local food in the streets, you'll just be disappointed. Good food are always served in houses for family and friends and in restaurants for other locals. Street food isn't like what you'll find in other Asian countries. In the Philippines, cheap food is cheap for a reason.

I don't love humanity but I hope for its survival only if we limit birth rates. I might be one of those who are insensitive human beings and I am glad I don't think like everybody else.

If only the earth could be shredded into bills, the money-hungry society wouldn't need to worry about scarce material possession...what are left for them to buy and own anyway?

October 5

How utterly unfortunate to be sharing the same race with so many cruel, heartless other humans! I am not one to say I'm as spotless as a white slate, but I am so upset with the human's imposing superiority over other life forms on Earth and how they disrespectfully treat the poor animals, other people and the environment in the most incorrigibly deplorable ways! Humans have become the large over-breeding cockroaches, the parasite that exhausts the planet, the virus that kills all other life, and the destruction to itself.

Language, my friends, is alive. Accent is the color that makes it vibrant. By large, no one is better or worse in communication by judging only the accent. I foresee the radical change of the native-ness of English language to a globalised multi-standard English in which it is not exclusive to those born in the UK, US, Canada, NZ and Australia anymore. Accent and regional slang matter no more. Pretty sure, the dictionaries would definitely be revised for the new language of the world. The old Germanic language has sure gone through a tremendous change over the centuries. Mankind is soon building the tower of Babel.
