More from "Alive with Gabriel":

Q: A woman asked a question about dealing with other sorts of people--neighbors who clear-cut, and invite you over for a BBQ and beer. How do you deal with that sort of thing, when your values are at odds?

A: It is possible to co-exist with people in the culture of death if you can separate yourself from the darkness.

Story--Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Good and Evil (duality) and merged light with darkness; problems began. They should have eaten from the Tree of Life *first* and then they would have been able to deal with the Tree of Good and Evil. They would have had the consciousness of the eternal and been able to eat from the other tree without problems. The point is--if you are in the positive consciousness and reality, then you can go wherever w/out being drawn into the darkness.

But be honest and live with integrity--say, look, I'm vegan, I don't really eat that, but I'd love to bring over a salad and enjoy the BBQ with you, have a potluck-type thing. (So don't pretend to be other than what you are, you can do this without causing conflict).

Jesus wasn't affected by negative things, he could go among prostitution and everything and it didn't matter because he was walking in the light. People with tendencies w/in themselves have to be more careful or they might be dragged in, of course. But it is an internal thing.

Follow-up Q: The lady asked what to do if they are making fun of you, and not really open to your ideas, and talking about how much they love their meat and clear-cutting.

A: Well, if they are not open to the culture of life, it won't work. They want to bring you into the culture of death as much as you want to bring them to the culture of life. Not much you can do, have to back off in that case.
