Do You Love Your Parents ?

Anyone see any contradiction here ^^^ ?

Yes I would do anything for them

I did.

Before they died.

Even more so now.

I see subtly

He had a specific audience in mind when he said that

How is if possible to honor your parents when they Don't honor you. You have to, God commands it

Parents must honor G-D 1st to be honored.
G-D literally means THE LAWS OF VIRTUE.

No. The honor your parents thing is bullshit. Reciprocity is what really matters. Should someone honor narcissistic, controlling parents? Nope.

My mom's a fuckin cunt.

It shows .

Haha too funny Crocodile Dundee. Why don't you make like Steve Irwin and die.

My parents are the most amazing, loving, caring and generous people that I have ever met. I strive to be like them with raising my own kids. Always giving without complaint. Always being the best I can be.

They are both my heros in all that they have both done and continue to do for me and my siblings.

The vagueness of language, that would you imagine a venomous hatred?

When if you take the whole of the dialogue, it ends an encompassing statement, "In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple"

Then here it is said,

"My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can, so the darkness will not overtake you"

When the law was given by Moses, the time line and environment was different, that people were with their families, but when the Light is sent into the world, that Light is there to go to.

It was very literal of the times, and what of this day and time? Many people have turned away from their parents, and gained little for it, because they get lost in their own little caves.

Honoring and loving are two very distinct actions / feelings.

Honoring means to interact with them respectfully and NOT TO SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THEM, even if it's the truth.

The commandment says we are to HONOR our mother and father, not love them.

Spirits in a material world, forgetting/not honoring their spiritual true self, will spawn children of lust that are not truly "theirs" to bring forth. And the spirits of those children don't feel fully supported, so you wind up with family ancestry respawns and/or "empty vessels" walking around absorbing the world they're exposed to with daycare, public school, constant tv/gaming upbringing, and a lack of sense of True Self - parents can't be bothered anymore to have one of them stay home to raise the children. They get dumped off on $8/hr employees at 6 weeks of age, and we wonder why most kids today have issues?!

In truth, our children are not "OURS."

They are their own being with their own purpose and mission in life. The only care of the parents is to raise them to be virtuous, strong (spiritually, mentally, and physically), provide for their needs until they are of an age to begin learning to provide for their own needs, teach them by example, and then let them go. This world is twisted with laws and social norms that are not supportive of a real parent/child relationship. And I'll continue to raise mine by what I outlined above, in direct defiance of how "the world" wants them/says they should be raised.

Why? Because my own mother showed me how. She was never "easy" on me and I knew I was expected to behave like a lady, because she behaved like a lady. She was as good as she could be about letting go, and our relationship evolved to mutual respect before she passed. We were more like the best of friends than mother/daughter in her remaining years. My father repented of his addictions when I was 13, and by grace and mercy alone was I able to forgive him of our early relationship issues, and begin to love and respect him as a daughter should. Due to his alcoholism, I never felt safe or secure with him until he healed and began to lead me by example.

Do I love my parents? Yes. The same as I love myself and my own children. However, I also feel as though love is more than the world defines it...it is a mutual, reciprocal respect.

I love them but it's twisted.
Lord they know not what they do.

I do not like or respect them.
They are truly evil in many ways

What if they just didn't know?

They aren't capable of love unless they can recite your rules for life?

One of the commandments, we must do so.

no, my 'parents' just saw us as props and a financial burden, they were neglectful and abusive and encouraged my siblings to abuse me, satan found it very easy to work through them as vehicles.

Nope, honour thy father and mother (in heaven...'let us create them in our image', worldly parents are vehicles for satan, in most cases). Jesus rejected the idolatry of the family.

Of course, but neither we ever very nurturing..I am an olny child and that was by failed birth control. I don't think they ever wanted any children at all. I always got the impression that I was a bother to have around, because I was something they had to shell out money for to feed. They did the best they could tho..my mother has NO maternal instincts whatsoever LOL

I love that my parents created me. I don't know my mother because she left at a young age. I don't miss her because I can't remember her. My dad liked to party but he always tried to keep the family together. He died young at the ago of 53.

What do you think I should be?

I'll be what I am and the rest of the world doesn't get a choice.

My parents were great, I couldn't have had any better. And since I've moved down here to an underdeveloped country, I have a renewed appreciation for how they raised me and the education I got from them and the schools I went to.

Just in the last few years they have extended school hours here. It was 3 hours a day for 8 years and now it's like 6 or 8 hours a day, I forget. But there are hardly any real adults here to teach their children common sense, manners, etiquette or anything we take for granted in our modern, civilized societies. This is a place where even most of the adults act and think like children.

To make matters even worse, this country, especially on the north coast, is the whore capital of the world. Prostitution is legal and lots of old, morally bankrupt men from civilized countries come here to have sex with young women who will do anything to raise their standard of living. They think just because these women are of adult age it is okay. They are pedophiles, the women here may have adult titties and butts but they have the minds of children. What's really awful is the parents of the whores here usually encourage it, anything to get some more money into the household.

Even if you have shit parents in the US, if you have a good presence of mind and an urge to excel, you can usually dig yourself out of where you are. Down here, it is impossible. Be good to yourself and those around you, don't keep acting like a dick and reincarnate in this third world shithole to be on the receiving end of the things you dished out in your lifetime.

Those at the top of the Pyramid, are harvesting those at the bottom. Parents are under pressure, and even if they could see a fraction of the predicament they are in, of the futility of schooling, to the Ouroboros of materliasm and toil. To look into that whole abyss, would at the same time, spoil upon the ease of heart they could spare their children at that moment.

The head of the snake needs to be cut off. That is those at the top of the pyramid. After that, much is clearer in what is good, what is evil, but before that, much is blurred.

was that a yes? or a no ?

I loved them, but I don't think they ever loved me ... I was the "token daughter " ... and I left home as soon as I could because every thing I did or said was "wrong"

that continued for fifty years ... never a hug, never I love you ... just "you are such a failure" even though I raised my own family

I was there for them when they died ... I took care of dad after mom died even though he was totally bonker and didn't even know who I was ... he died at home

I celebrate their death - first time in my life that I have felt really good about myself

as far as I was concerned they were heart less Nazis (even though they fought the Nazi in WII - they were just as heartless
