I meant to thank you for referring to me as your Christian friend.
> Even our Christian friend Ray has experiences with it. So perhaps we should dig a little deeper. Is this a function of our mental illness? Or is this something real? I suspect that its both.
>I think your suspicions are correct. Have you ever wondered if some Prophets were bipolar as well? They rapid cycle from the depths of despair to the height of enlightenment within a few scripture verses. Once again, the two distinct sides. My position that both Satan and God work through natural spiritual law, and are ever present in the battle within for our souls rests here.
Sheesh, you can't serve God and Mammon. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or love the one and despise the other. But we all try to do it, me included.

How do we know what it is we serve? If we serve God we are able to pray. But, it is important to understand where darkness fits into the etermal plan. I agree with you or Tabby who said darkness is an essential element, for if we did not have the bitter we could not know the sweet and we could not know ourselves either.
