Re: Enlightenment as paradigm shift

The I-illusion is the belief that one really exists in an independent manner. It is an illusion because no such entity exists. what kind of independence are you talking about? what's the purpose of saying this? What comes of it? Nothing. When a person achieves something and basks in feelings of tri...

Yeah even them actually use science, logic, and empirical evidence. How about actually reading it instead of mentally blocking it?

it's akin to when they said fetuses had gills in their embryos... So are you saying I'm wasting my time going fishing in women's vaginas? yes, but seriously, most evolutionists are too chicken shit to admit how wrong and unproven their theory really is. Surprisingly there's still some serious ones ...

Re: LATEST SHOW: Mystical Christianity - Father Peter Bowes

That primates forms resembled human beings is no proof that they changed one day into human beings. The fact that we share about 99% of our genetic make-up with chimpanzees should give you a good indication that we are very closely related. As well as very closely related to fish. I don't see how t...

how is success, and achievement in life the enhancement of the "I-illusion"? What is the I-illusion and why is it an illusion? What does the illusion signify?

Re: Are there any religious Jews here?

not to mention Israel being a completely secular state, not at all a theocracy. Which makes "Judaism" and the whole religious significance of Israel one big self-masterbatory sham. And the real story of Palestinians being militarily expelled just gives it a nice cherry topping http://monde...

Re: Making peace with femininity

Someone, please reply to something in here: speciation hasn't been proven at all, because it is impossible. Each species has its own limited gene pool, and can only produce its own species. Any variance or differing traits are still part of the species, so a taller human is still a human, etc... Th...

Re: Making peace with femininity

The ancient Greeks invented science. They created it - namely Thales and his student Anaximander. BTW, Anaximander is most likely the ancient Greek who Dan was referring to - he deduced that man must have evolved from simpler life forms almost 25 centuries before Darwin finally established it.
