but if logic is self referencing, then wouldn't an ontological system based on logic necessarily be flawed in its viewpoints, a bit of a case of tunnel vision eh?
or, they are buddhist, and believe in a cycle of life, rather than an anthropomorphic vindicative god who, although aparently all merciful, damns people to hell for all eternity. the world of belief...
yeah, actually so ironic that it almost supercedes irony etirely. i think that my remarks could however be interprited as derogotory, therefor i suggest that before anyone take offence at my remarks,...
true, true, but i find that "Thus spoke Zarathustra" is somewhat of a mis-written book in its tendancy to meander and go on tangents rather than giving you a concise and clear picture of what the...
skip this, read "the madman: by nietzsche, it is better and far more concise...
here is a nice little monistic sunbeam in a storm cloud of religious die hards
do some reading, the beast started as a human, not as a monkey. his mutation gave him the physical attributes of a bestial thing, but he is in no way a monkey...
so you are saying that their beliefs are invalid because they subscribe to a different religion, and that they actually do believe in god, they just don't know it? i am truly confused, they do not...
but we are made of the same materials, and it is proven that all things have sentience, even subnuclear particles, so rights are granted by us to all things that can 1.) communicate with us on a...

tip drips of a somber-sigh spring, crackling clean,
clear ice of winters-end spring, and morning yawns
snorts and snarls of dawns-red spring sky, reflected

yeah, the ancient egyptians did predate the greek culture, and many of their beliefs and motifs were adopted by the greeks and the romans. so yes, that culure did have a huge influence on the...
no, but the concept of redemption comes from imperialist christianity, which is based on the rigid law-structures of roman era christianity, as well as the greek gods, primarily apollo, the first...
yeah, i am in agreeance, there is no reason for death to worry about us, because death is not a sentient being, it is a part in the cycle of life... wtf mate...
here is a poem, although i think you are a little bit swamped so it may take you a while to post on this poem...
Echo of the Sun
Trembling in the white eyes of city streets, facing the fiery...
i am not a hindu, but i do know a little bit about the caste system. it origiinated with a culture of lighter skinned peoples, i believe that they were the aryans, but am not sure. anyway, they...
or dharma bums by jack kerouac, to offer a unique view on buddhism, which holds similar, but not at all equivalent beliefs.
here i am with my semantics and my detail oriented self and i couldn't help but be forced to point out that moksha is not at all equivalent to salvation, it is in fact nearly the opposite, once you...
it is not that you have communicated an intolerance, i myself have a fairly western slant to my thought process, i just wanted to open up the conversation to include other worldviews and belief...
