    Faust, I’ll keep it simple.

    Faust, I will make it even simpler.

    You can take one of two approaches.

    A) Reality. Life is just unfair. There is no god who is punishing or rewarding anybody.

    B) There is a god who unfairly and unjustifiably punishes and rewards folks without reason or rationality. Or maybe he’s just a sick and twisted omnipotent asshole who like’s to f~~~ with people like you for his own amusement.

    Please get back to us and let us know which way that you’re leaning. If it’s the latter, I don’t want to be wasting any more of my time trying to help you cope or reach a resolution with your problem…

    What is your diagnosis?

    Lupus?

    Reaumatoid arthritis?

    Mixed connective tissue disease?

    Some kind of vasculitis?

    To those following me, be careful, I just farted. Men those beans are killers.

    Lupus.
    Atherites.

    But would they not show up in the blood work?

    What makes misery so intense is that it seems to be without cause. All appears to be madness.

    If on the other hand it’s karma – things that you have done in the past returning to you – then there is a cause, a machine at work.

    Understanding this is key. Once there is understanding there is acceptance and then progress.

    Yes they should. Anti neutrofil antibodys should be positive for lupus, anti dna, prp should be fake positive, etc

    In artritis reumátoid factor should be positive.

    In both glomerular sediment speed should be high.

    But mixed connective tissue disease could be even trickier to diagnose.

    And some other sistemic inflammatory problems are still unknown.

    What we know is little and it even might be wrong.

    Faust, i can’t offer you any answers as i’m struggling myself but if you need a friend pm me. Sometimes a guy needs someone to bust his b~~~~ and other times someone to listen.

    “Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!”

    I do not have a belief or “faith” in any “god”.
    I am usually the author of my own fortunes, good, bad, or neutral. When I am not, I find a way to not bother with it.
    I adapt, overcome, and persevere much to the dismay of others. I just make the best of life and move forward as best as I can.
    Don’t get me wrong. I’m pretty sure I can bitch and moan about s~~~ with the best of them. It’s just that most of the time I just take the lesson and move on.
    There is always going to be good and bad days in life. How you deal with it is up to you.

    There was a time in my life when I gave a fuck. Now you have to pay ME for it

    After I lost a bunch of my friends and some family during 9/11, I gave up on G-d. If s/he works for you, congrats. For me, I’m agnostic. I cannot prove there is or isn’t a G-d. However, I do not think the said fallen angel Lucifer himself would cause as much harm and turmoil as 9/11. If there was no 9/11, then all of our lives would be much different. Everything changed for the worse. I consider it similar to our ice age.

    HEART BY THE LORD OF HOST
    JESUS.

    WE ALL HAVE A RIGHT TO OUR BELIEFS
    WITHOUT BEING CALLED A FOOL.

    Your truth is what you say it is
    and I will never disagree because
    I respect your right to have your
    own beliefs.

    I am harpo’s father unless you
    have evidence otherwise.

    There is no other place that a man
    who died back in 1999 could possibly
    be alive but heaven.

    “Those who argue on the opposite side of
    the truth reveal themselves as fools,
    because the truth will not argue back
    nor will it change just because you
    refuse to accept and believe it,
    The truth will just stand there
    self evident while you continue
    looking foolish!”
    I am not evil so not all gods
    are evil. That is being so
    general.
    I am triggered now
    All heavenly fathers are
    not evil.
    I am a loving father who lives in
    harpomason’s kingdom of heaven on
    earth.
    Actually My son gave it all back to me
    So he lives in my kingdom now.

    Scientist peddle theory they don’t
    know the truth about creation.

    Hope you figure out that a fathere
    creates both genders of children.

    I created harpomason’s flesh this
    is my solid testimonial evidence
    that the spirit of a man’s creator
    lives but I only Live in my own kingdom
    of heaven on earth. My son believes
    heaven is where the heart is and
    JESUS is the truth.

    I Winston McKinney a mans creator
    have accepted my son’s gift of his
    living cancer free flesh.
    I also endow him with his right
    to his religious beliefs and the chance
    to expose someone who should not call everyone
    fools who do not share your beliefs.

    Maybe your God is evil, but that should not
    apply to everyones God just because yours is.

    NAGALT= not all God’s are like that.
    HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!

    Your deity profiling LOL!

    I could be trolling or I
    really could be spiritually
    guiding harpomason’s fingers
    to type this out to you
    from heaven on earth.

    believe what you want Faust but
    arguing will not change the truth.

    Justice is your truth being what you say it is
    unless I have evidence otherwise.
    My typed testimony is my evidence of
    my truth.

    My truth is what I say and void of any lies,
    has Faust For Science (FFS) any evidence otherwise?

    Did not think so. My truth stands as my truth.
    as long as it does not infringe on FFS’s right
    to his own beliefs.

    Love and respect to everyone without prejudice.
    Yes I even love evil gods. I just do not approve
    of their evil ways.

    Taking someones right to their own beliefs would be evil.

    Insisting everyone share your beliefs or they are a fool was making a very foolish statement.

    I don’t have to share your beliefs about god.

    I only have to respect your right to have them.

    I do respect that you have the right to believe
    your God is evil.

    I don’t respect that you can call me a fool for not agreeing with you.

    We all do foolish things, but that does not
    make us fools.
    We all make mistakes but a mistake is not a failure.
    Unless you make the same mistake over and over
    and refuse to back up and correct those mistakes
    or the behavior that is causing the mistake.

    You may have your evil God and I will do
    the lord’s work for My son harpomason and
    endow his rights like it says a good creator
    should.

    I laugh at the world and everyone on earth
    while in my fathers spirit and my father
    laughs at the foolish attempts to convince
    him that he is dead and everyone knows
    You do not die when you go to heaven because
    the Bible says you go to heaven to live
    not to die.

    HA! HA! HA! HA!

    HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!

    That is how I cope when the world
    brings me misery My god never brings
    me misery.

    Your god is who you say it is,
    I would never disagree.

    No one has a monopoly on fathers who
    art in heaven and I have every right
    to one of my own I do not have to share
    your evil one with you.

    How do you cope?

    I ju

    I was bound to be misunderstood, and I laugh at those who misunderstand me. Kind mockery at the well intentioned, but unfettered cruelty towards those would be prison guards of my creative possibilities. This so as to learn as much from misunderstanding as from understanding. Taking pleasure in worthy opponents and making language fluid and flowing like a river yet pointed and precise as a dagger. Contradicts the socialistic purpose of language and makes for a wonderful linguistic dance, A verbal martial art with constant parries that hone the weapon that is the two edged sword of my mouth.

    Lupus.
    Atherites.

    But would they not show up in the blood work?

    Yes they should. Anti neutrofil antibodys should be positive for lupus, anti dna, prp should be fake positive, etc

    In artritis reumátoid factor should be positive.

    In both glomerular sediment speed should be high.

    But mixed connective tissue disease could be even trickier to diagnose.

    And some other sistemic inflammatory problems are still unknown.

    What we know is little and it even might be wrong.

    Part of the problem is artritis. I know it has been there since I was a child, but they always told me it was in my head. They said they would do blood tests, with blood they drew for me. But, they likely did not do those tests

    You see. I am poor and finding a problem would cost them money.

    After I was crippled, I was finally able to find a doctor whom would agree to doing an an x-ray. In the doctor’s words I had “horrible” arthritis.

    Before any of you suggest I sue. Keep in mind I am broke and they have law firms on speed dial.

    I am not joking why I say I am screwed ever ways.

    I have no options for justice for myself.

    The only options I have in this life are to be the monster in the story, or being the forgotten wimp that never fought back.

    Either way, those whom hurt me are rewarded and seen as heroes for hurting me.

    Faust, i can’t offer you any answers as i’m struggling myself but if you need a friend pm me. Sometimes a guy needs someone to bust his b~~~~ and other times someone to listen.

    Thank you for the offer.

    I am sorry for your suffering.

    Your sympathy is valued.

    And that is one of many horrible experiences I have had to endure.

    That is why I am asking how to cope with so much trouble.

    It is one thing to get into trouble. It is quite another to be thrown into a pit of trouble.
