Greetings, friend. I have organized my post to respond to your comments respectively. Thank you for responding, though.
1. I feel I have understood your comments. I just do not agree with them.
2. Being evil, naturally my actions are not right or just, in your sense. My point was that I am not a hypocrite, but instead the actions of the Church in respect to the shrines are, in that their actions are oppressive and evil, making the Church hypocrites.
3. I did not mean to generalize that the Church bears grudges. I just remarked that I know some members who do.
4. I do not pursue greatness because it will cause happiness, but rather I do because I believe it to be us mortal's destiny to do so. I believe Maya was raped for a reason in a larger sense, and the production of humans was to make us great. Contrary to what you said, I shall never achive happiness. I have no emotions - how many times must I say this?
5. You stated, "Good does not strive to be great." Naturally. Good strives to be weak and insignificant. You also said that the concern for others trancends greatness. This sort of thinking eliminates greatness, and must be destroyed. Otherwise, mortals will indeed become weak. You will most likely debate this stating that my mind is not open to your thought, but indeed I am. It is obviously apparant, your beliefs. You might use grand language, explaining how giving is stronger then selfishness, and it glorifies strength. Realistically, they lead to weakness.
6. Yes, there can be free will when one has no hope. I do not hope for anything.
Where has the original topic of shrines gone? You are clever enough to avoid questions by changing topics. I still wish to hear how shrines are not oppressive.
May evil guide you on your path towards greatness.
