In other words, they were lousy prophets?

As example, such phenomena tend to reveal how human activities are so often composed of multiple levels.

As example, on philosophy type sites the cover story is that the process is intellectual, when the real story underneath the cover story is that the driving force behind most of the typing is ego and emotion.

To test this claim, we could remove all names and screen names from all the posts so that authorship would be totally anonymous.

If this was a forum, we could start a thread dedicated to the rather relevant topic of the emotional ego engine fueling all sites such as this.

What's the point of this nasty personal attack on the author of a post from five years ago? What do you think you are accomplishing here?

Amen! And that is ultimately what must drive our love of others and our desire to share Jesus with others. These intimate encounters of God are not purely for us, or for us to somehow lord it over others. Obviously this would be pride.

We must have that fire in our hearts brought about by our experience of God and our desire that every person we meet would know how much they are loved and what glory the human person is made for. God did not make us for suffering; he made us for the most pure joy and peace that only comes from loving others with God's love. So it is God that does all the work in and through us!

And I will always witness to the fact that it is our beloved Mother Mary who is the ordinary means to union with Jesus. She forms us in the love of God most easily and quickly. How sweet she makes all the trials of life! If only we would begin to promote this fact that so many saints have known, God would transform the world through her Immaculate heart, since that is what he desires to do at this point in history!

Oh Woman Clothed with the Sun, Come quick to our aid!

"I can tell you that a true "extraordinary" experience of God is near impossible to deny"
This is such truth. I always ask God, why me? Why did he choose to give me such an extraordinary experience and not the others?
I see so many people struggling and doubting with little faith or no faith at all and I wonder why was I given such faith and not others? I wish everyone would experience what I experience.

Beautifully said Jennifer. It reminds me of my own conversion from Sikh to Catholic back in 2003, which I wrote about in one chapter of the book, 'Canadian Converts' by Justin Press. What you have said perfectly describes the relationship between faith and reason. When I was going through my conversion, I realized that my own intelligence could only take me so far, and I knew there was so much I didn't know that was there for me to know (and to love), but I had to accept that my own intelligence wasn't enough to get me there (humility), and I had to 'step off the cliff' and take the proverbial leap of faith into the domain of FAITH. Then, a whole new world opened up.

Unless you believe, you will not understand.
-- Isaiah 7:9

Seek not to understand that you may believe, but believe that you may understand.
-- St. Augustine
